FAQs

Is this fleece waterproof?

No, the Regatta Junior Brigade II Full Zip Fleece is not waterproof. It offers some resistance to light moisture due to the polyester fabric, but it is not designed to keep your child dry in heavy rain. For waterproof protection, it should be worn as a mid-layer under a waterproof outer shell.

What age range is this fleece suitable for?

This specific variant is sized for children aged 2-3 years. However, the Regatta Junior Brigade II fleece range is available in various sizes for different age groups, as indicated by the product's size attribute.

Can this fleece be worn as a stand-alone jacket?

Yes, it can be worn as a stand-alone jacket in mild to cool, dry weather. Its lightweight warmth and quick-drying properties make it comfortable for everyday wear and active play when an outer shell isn't required.

How do I prevent static electricity buildup?

To reduce static, you can try using an anti-static laundry spray or adding a small amount of white vinegar to the rinse cycle when washing. Air drying instead of tumble drying can also help.

Are the pockets functional?

Yes, the two lower fleece pockets are fully functional and designed to keep little hands warm or hold small, lightweight items.

What material is the chin guard made from?

The chin guard is typically made from a soft piece of the same microfleece fabric or a similar soft material to prevent the zipper from rubbing against the skin.

Will this fleece shrink after washing?

Being 100% polyester, this fleece is highly resistant to shrinking. To maintain its size and shape, always follow the care instructions, especially avoiding high heat during washing or drying.

Troubleshooting

Fleece has started to pill or form small bobbles.

Pilling is common with fleece over time. Use a fabric shaver or a de-fuzzer tool to carefully remove the pills, restoring the fleece's appearance. Washing inside out can also help reduce pilling.

Zipper is sticking or difficult to move.

Check if any fabric is caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to free it. You can also apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a zipper lubricant to the teeth to help it glide more smoothly. Ensure the chin guard isn't interfering.

Fleece doesn't feel as warm or seems less effective at wicking moisture.

This can sometimes happen due to residue from fabric softeners or excessive detergent. Re-wash the fleece using a minimal amount of mild detergent and add an extra rinse cycle. Air dry thoroughly. Ensure no residues are left in the fabric.

The Regatta Junior Brigade II Fleece requires no special setup; simply have your child wear it! It's designed for compatibility as a mid-layer, fitting comfortably under waterproof jackets or over base layers like t-shirts or long-sleeved tops. Care Instructions: To ensure the longevity and performance of your fleece, follow these simple care steps: 1. Washing: Machine wash cold (up to 30°C) with similar colors. Use a gentle cycle. 2. Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals, bleach, or fabric softeners, as these can damage the fleece fibers and reduce wicking performance. 3. Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or, ideally, line dry. The quick-drying properties mean it won't take long. Avoid high heat, which can melt or damage polyester fibers. 4. Ironing: Do not iron. High heat can damage the fabric. 5. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Ensure it's clean and dry before storing to prevent odors or mildew.
