FAQs
What is the main purpose of this fleece top?
The Regatta Sweetheart 1/4 Zip Fleece Top is designed as a lightweight, comfortable, and insulating layer for casual wear and transitional weather.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the provided sizing chart which lists UK sizes and corresponding chest measurements. It is recommended to measure your chest and compare it to the chart for the best fit.
Is this fleece warm enough for winter?
This is a lightweight fleece (170gsm) designed for moderate warmth and layering. For very cold winter conditions, it would be best used as a base or mid-layer under a more substantial outer jacket.
Can this fleece be worn by men?
This product is specifically designed for women, with a cut and fit tailored for female sizing.
How should I care for the fleece to prevent pilling?
Machine wash at 30°C on a gentle cycle with similar colours. Avoid high heat in the tumble dryer or direct ironing, as these can contribute to pilling.
What does '170gsm' mean?
GSM stands for 'grams per square meter,' which is a measure of fabric density. 170gsm indicates a lightweight fleece fabric.
Are there other colours available?
Yes, this model is available in a range of colours. Please check the product listings for other available colour options.
Troubleshooting
Fleece appears to be pilling excessively.
Ensure you are washing according to the care instructions (cold wash, gentle cycle, avoid harsh detergents). If pilling persists, try using a fabric shaver carefully on the affected areas.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper. Gently try to work the zipper up and down. A small amount of wax or a silicone-based lubricant can be applied to the zipper teeth if necessary.
Garment has shrunk after washing.
Verify that the washing and drying instructions were followed precisely. Avoid high heat drying, as this is the most common cause of shrinkage in fleece materials.
Color appears faded.
Ensure the garment was washed inside out and with similar colours. Avoid direct sunlight when drying, as prolonged exposure can fade colours.
