Product Information
Full details
The Regatta Frankie Borg Bodywarmer is designed for adults seeking reliable core warmth without the restriction of sleeves, making it an ideal choice for outdoor enthusiasts and those needing versatile layering during transitional seasons. Its soft polyester borg fleece construction provides excellent insulation, though users should note that as a sleeveless garment, it is best suited for layering over long-sleeved base or mid-layers rather than as a standalone outer garment in extreme wind or rain.

FAQs
Can I wear this in the rain?

Is this machine washable?

Does it have pockets?
The Frankie design is focused on core warmth and minimalist layering; please refer to your specific garment tag for pocket configuration.
What is the best way to store it?
Hang the bodywarmer on a wide-shouldered hanger to maintain its shape, or fold it neatly in a cool, dry closet.
Is the material breathable?
Yes, polyester fleece is inherently breathable, allowing moisture vapor to escape while trapping heat.
Does it fit true to size?
The XXL size is consistent with standard outdoor apparel sizing, designed to accommodate a comfortable layer underneath.
Troubleshooting
Static build-up on the fleece
Lightly mist the garment with water or use a dedicated anti-static spray for clothes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your garment, follow these care steps: Machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle using a mild detergent specifically designed for synthetic materials. Avoid using fabric softeners as they can degrade the insulating properties of the fleece. Always air dry your bodywarmer in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can cause the polyester fibers to shrink or melt. For compatibility, this XXL size is designed to fit over standard base layers and medium-weight sweatshirts. If you plan to wear it over a heavy down jacket, consider the garment's fit to ensure you do not feel restricted.
