FAQs

What is Symmetry fleece?

Symmetry fleece is a type of polyester fleece fabric known for its softness, warmth, and durability. It is often brushed on one side for comfort and treated to resist pilling on the other.

Is this fleece waterproof?

No, the Regatta Frankie Half Zip fleece is not waterproof. It is designed for warmth and comfort and would need to be worn under a waterproof outer layer in wet conditions.

How do I choose the right size?

Refer to the Regatta sizing chart for children's apparel. The '13 Years' in the title refers to the UK age sizing. It's recommended to measure your child and compare it against the chart, considering if you want a snug fit or room to grow.

Can this fleece be worn by boys and girls?

Yes, the Frankie Half Zip fleece is designed as a unisex item, suitable for both boys and girls.

How often should I wash the fleece?

Wash the fleece as needed based on usage. Follow the care instructions on the garment label for best results, typically a 40°C machine wash.

What does 'anti-pill' mean?

An 'anti-pill' finish means the fabric is treated to prevent the formation of small balls or 'pills' on the surface, which can occur with friction during wear and washing. This helps the garment look newer for longer.

Can I tumble dry this fleece?

Yes, you can tumble dry the fleece on a low heat setting. However, hanging it to dry is also an option and can help preserve the fabric's texture.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels stiff after washing

Ensure you are using the correct washing and drying temperatures as per the care label. Avoid using fabric softeners which can affect the fleece's anti-pill properties.

Zipper is difficult to move

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If the issue persists, contact customer support.

Fleece is not warm enough for very cold weather

This fleece is designed as a mid-layer. For colder conditions, layer it over a thermal base layer and/or under a more robust outer jacket.

Pilling has started to appear

While the fleece has an anti-pill finish, some minor pilling can occur with heavy friction. Gently remove any pills with a fabric shaver. Avoid abrasive washing methods.
