FAQs

Is this fleece suitable for very cold weather?

This fleece provides lightweight warmth and is ideal for mild conditions or as a layering piece under a heavier coat. It is not designed as a primary outer layer for extreme cold.

What is the material composition?

The fleece is made from 80% Polyester and 20% Recycled Polyester.

How do I know what size to order?

Refer to the brand's sizing chart for accurate measurements. It is often recommended to check customer reviews or consider sizing up if you prefer a looser fit or plan to layer thicker items underneath.

Can I wear this for hiking?

It is suitable for light hikes in mild weather. For more strenuous activities or colder conditions, consider a technical fleece or layering it with more robust outerwear.

What does 'half zip' mean?

A half zip means the zipper extends only halfway down the front of the garment, typically from the collar to the chest area, allowing for adjustable ventilation.

Are there other color options available?

This specific product is available in a Cream Spot pattern. Other Cath Kidston Print Fleeces from Regatta may come in different colors and patterns.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels stiff after washing

Avoid using fabric softener. Ensure you are using a mild detergent and a gentle wash cycle. Tumble drying on a low setting can help restore softness.

Zipper is sticking

Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper. Gently pull the fabric away from the zipper teeth. You can try rubbing a graphite pencil along the zipper teeth to help it glide more smoothly.

Pilling on the fleece surface

Pilling is a common occurrence with fleece. To minimize it, wash the garment inside out and avoid overcrowding the washing machine. Use a fabric shaver gently on the affected areas if needed.
