FAQs

Is the Regatta Frankie Borg fleece waterproof?

No, this garment is made of insulating fleece fabric, which is not waterproof. It should be worn under a waterproof layer in rainy conditions.

Can I wear this for strenuous hiking?

While it is comfortable for light activity, it is primarily designed as a casual, insulating mid-layer. It may be too warm for high-intensity, aerobic exercise.

Does the fleece have pockets?

The design focuses on a clean, casual aesthetic; check your specific model tag to confirm if your version includes side pockets.

How should I store the fleece in summer?

Clean it thoroughly before storage and keep it in a breathable garment bag or a cool, dry closet away from direct light.

Will this fleece shrink in the wash?

To prevent shrinking, always follow the cold or low-temperature wash instructions and avoid high-heat tumble drying.

Troubleshooting

Visible lint or small balls forming on the fabric

This is known as pilling. Use a fabric shaver or lint roller to gently remove the pills, and wash inside out in the future.

Fleece feels less soft after several washes

You may have used too much detergent or fabric softener. Wash again on a rinse cycle without detergent to remove residue.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent warmth-to-weight ratio for daily comfort
  • Convenient full-length zipper for temperature regulation
  • Soft-touch material that feels comfortable against the skin
  • Versatile design suitable for commuting or weekend lounging

Cons

  • Not waterproof; requires an outer shell in wet weather
  • Bulkier than lightweight synthetic base layers
  • Material may be prone to pilling if washed incorrectly

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your fleece maintains its insulating properties and texture, follow these care instructions:

  1. Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners as they can coat the fleece fibers and reduce their moisture-wicking and insulating capabilities.
  2. Drying: Air drying is recommended to maintain the soft texture of the fleece. If you must use a tumble dryer, use the lowest heat setting.
  3. Compatibility: This garment serves as a mid-layer; it is most effective when paired with a light base layer underneath and a windproof or waterproof outer shell if venturing into extreme weather.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fiber degradation.
