Symmetry fleece is Regatta's proprietary fleece fabric. It is designed to be lightweight, quick-drying, easy to care for, and features an anti-pill finish for durability and a brushed inner for a soft feel.
The Sweetheart Fleece is a lightweight midlayer, providing warmth suitable for mild weather or as a layer under a heavier jacket in colder conditions. For significant winter warmth, it would need to be combined with additional insulating layers.
The product description provides a size guide with approximate bust measurements for women's UK sizes. It's recommended to compare your own measurements to this guide to find the best fit.
This specific model is designed for women. While the fit is relaxed, it is tailored to women's sizing. Regatta may offer similar fleece styles designed for men.
The fleece is partially made from recycled polyester derived from plastic bottles, contributing to reduced waste. The specific percentage of recycled material is not detailed but it represents a step towards more sustainable apparel.
The anti-pill finish helps to prevent the formation of small balls of fiber on the fabric's surface, ensuring the fleece maintains a smooth appearance and soft texture even after repeated use and washing.
While the fleece is breathable and quick-drying, its relaxed fit and primary design as a casual midlayer make it more suitable for moderate activities rather than high-intensity sports where a more streamlined, athletic fit might be preferred.
Ensure you are using the correct washing temperature (40°C) and avoid harsh detergents. Line drying or tumble drying on a low heat can help restore softness. Avoid ironing, as high heat can damage the fibers.
While the fleece has an anti-pill finish, excessive friction or abrasive washing can sometimes lead to minor pilling. Wash inside out, use a gentler cycle, and avoid washing with rough items like denim. A fabric shaver can be used for any minor pills that may form.
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to free any obstruction. Lubricating the zipper with a small amount of wax or a graphite pencil can help it slide more smoothly. Ensure the zipper is fully open before attempting to pull it up or down.
Setup: No setup is required for the Regatta Sweetheart Fleece; it is ready to wear straight out of the packaging.
Compatibility: This fleece is designed as a versatile piece of apparel. It pairs well with various bottoms, such as walking trousers, jeans, or leggings. As a midlayer, it is compatible with a wide range of outer shells, including waterproof jackets, windbreakers, and heavier parkas.
Care Instructions:
Follow these instructions to maintain the fleece's softness, anti-pill properties, and overall quality.
