Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Thompson Marl Half Zip Fleece is designed for adult males seeking a lightweight, comfortable, and versatile layer for outdoor activities. Its key benefit is providing reliable warmth and easy-care convenience, while a potential caveat is its 170gsm weight, which may not be sufficient for extreme cold. This fleece features soft, hardwearing Symmetry fleece with a peached back and anti-pill finish for lasting comfort and easy maintenance, plus a zip-neck for adjustable ventilation.

FAQs

What is Symmetry Fleece?

Symmetry Fleece is Regatta's proprietary fleece fabric known for being quick-drying, low-maintenance, and featuring an anti-pill finish for a lasting appearance and comfortable wear.

Is this fleece suitable for very cold weather?

The Thompson Marl fleece is lightweight (170gsm). While it provides good warmth for its weight, it is best suited as a mid-layer or for milder conditions. For extreme cold, consider layering it under a heavier jacket or choosing a thicker fleece.

Can this fleece be worn by women?

This particular model is designed as a men's fit. While some women may find the regular fit comfortable depending on their preference for looser layering, it is not specifically cut for a female silhouette.

How do I ensure the best fit?

The fleece is a regular fit. Refer to Regatta's sizing guide for men's apparel, paying attention to chest measurements, to select the most appropriate size. The regular fit is designed to accommodate layering underneath.

What does 'peached back' mean?

A 'peached back' means the inside surface of the fleece fabric has been treated to create a soft, velvety texture, similar to the skin of a peach, enhancing comfort when worn.

How should I wash the fleece to maintain its anti-pill properties?

Wash on a gentle cycle with similar colours, using a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners. For best results, wash inside out and tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang dry. Do not iron.

Is the entire fleece made from recycled materials?

The fabric composition is 70% Polyester and 30% Recycled Polyester, meaning a significant portion of the fleece is made from recycled materials.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels stiff after washing

Ensure you are using a gentle wash cycle and a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners which can affect the fleece's properties. Tumble dry on low heat.

Pilling is appearing on the fabric

While the fleece has an anti-pill finish, excessive friction or rough handling during washing can still cause pilling. Ensure it is washed inside out and avoid washing with abrasive items like denim.

Zipper is difficult to move

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to work the zipper up and down. If necessary, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a specific zipper lubricant to the teeth.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Lightweight and comfortable for layering.
  • Durable fabric with an anti-pill finish for longevity.
  • Adjustable ventilation via the zip neck.
  • Made with recycled materials for sustainability.
  • Easy to care for and maintain.

Cons

  • May not provide sufficient warmth for very cold conditions due to its lightweight nature.
  • The single zip-neck design offers limited ventilation options compared to a full zip.
  • As a fleece, it may not be as windproof as other jacket types.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This fleece requires no setup; it is ready to wear straight out of the package.

Compatibility: Designed as a men's regular fit, it layers well over base layers or t-shirts and under heavier jackets or waterproof shells. It is suitable for adult males.

Care Instructions:

  1. Washing: Machine washable on a gentle cycle (typically 30°C or 40°C). It is recommended to wash similar colours together.
  2. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang dry. Avoid using high heat as it can damage the fabric.
  3. Ironing: Do not iron. The anti-pill finish means it should not require ironing.
  4. Bleaching: Do not bleach.
  5. Dry Cleaning: Do not dry clean.
