Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Thompson Half Zip Fleece Top is designed for adult men who need a reliable, lightweight layering piece for daily activities or casual outdoor use. Crafted from 170gsm Symmetry fleece, it provides a soft-touch feel and essential warmth without adding excessive bulk, making it a versatile addition to any wardrobe. While it offers excellent comfort for layering, users should note that as a lightweight garment, it is best utilized as an insulating mid-layer rather than a heavy-duty outer shell in extreme weather conditions.

FAQs

Is this fleece waterproof?

No, the Regatta Thompson fleece is not waterproof or water-resistant. It is designed for warmth and breathability.

Can I wear this as an outer layer?

Yes, it is perfectly fine to wear as an outer layer in mild, dry conditions. However, it will not protect you from wind or rain.

Does the fit run large or small?

The fleece features a regular fit, which is true to standard sizing. It is designed to allow enough room for a base layer underneath.

What does 170gsm mean?

GSM stands for grams per square meter. A 170gsm rating indicates a lightweight fabric density suitable for year-round layering.

How should I store this fleece?

Store it in a cool, dry place. Hanging it on a wide-shouldered hanger will help the garment maintain its shape over time.

Troubleshooting

Static electricity build-up

Wash the garment with a specialized fabric conditioner or add a small amount of white vinegar to the rinse cycle to neutralize static.

Visible pilling despite anti-pill treatment

Use a dedicated fabric shaver to carefully remove minor surface pills caused by friction with rough outer layers.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Lightweight and breathable construction
  • Soft-touch material for all-day comfort
  • Anti-pill finish maintains neat aesthetics
  • Versatile design suitable for various casual settings
  • Easy to layer under jackets or over base layers

Cons

  • Lightweight 170gsm fleece is not suitable for severe cold
  • Lacks windproof or waterproof ratings
  • No zippered pockets for secure storage

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your fleece remains in top condition, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Washing: Machine wash at a low temperature setting (usually 30 or 40 degrees Celsius) using a mild detergent.
  2. Avoid Softeners: Do not use fabric softeners, as they can degrade the anti-pill properties and synthetic fibers of the fleece.
  3. Drying: Air dry the garment whenever possible. If you must use a tumble dryer, choose a low heat setting to prevent material shrinkage or damage to the synthetic fibers.
  4. Compatibility: This fleece is designed to layer effectively under various outer shells such as waterproof rain jackets or heavier winter parkas. It works best when worn over a moisture-wicking base layer like a synthetic or merino wool T-shirt.
