FAQs
Is this bodywarmer waterproof?
No, the Frankie fleece is designed for warmth and breathability, not as a waterproof garment. Use an outer shell in rainy conditions.
Can I wear this under a waterproof jacket?
Yes, its lightweight profile makes it an ideal mid-layer for wearing underneath most waterproof shells.
How should I clean the bodywarmer?
Machine wash on a cool setting, use mild detergent, and air dry. Do not use fabric softener.
Is this suitable for high-intensity exercise?
Yes, the sleeveless design allows for excellent ventilation, making it suitable for active pursuits where temperature regulation is key.
What material is this made of?
It is constructed from high-quality insulating fleece, providing soft, lightweight core warmth.
Troubleshooting
Fleece feels less warm than when new
Wash the garment to remove oils and dirt that can flatten the fibers. Brush the fleece gently after drying to restore loft.
Pilling or small balls of fabric appearing
Use a fabric shaver or a dedicated pill comb to remove surface lint. Pilling is a common characteristic of fleece and does not affect performance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your fleece, machine wash it on a cool, gentle cycle with mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can degrade the performance of the insulating fibers. Always air dry the garment away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the material from losing its shape or texture. This piece is compatible with most standard outdoor rain jackets and base layers, provided you choose the correct size to avoid excessive bunching under tighter outer shells.
