Full details
This Regatta Men's Garrian II Full Zip Fleece Jacket in Grey (Size L) is designed for adult males seeking a durable and cozy layer for colder weather. Its key benefit is providing lasting warmth thanks to its sherpa-backed polyester microfleece.

FAQs
What is the weight of the fleece fabric?
The fleece is made from 430gsm (grams per square meter) sherpa-backed polyester microfleece, indicating a good balance of warmth and weight.
Is this jacket waterproof?
No, this jacket is made of fleece and is not waterproof. It is designed for warmth and can be layered with a waterproof outer shell for protection against rain or snow.
What are the pocket features?
The jacket features two lower pockets that are secured with zippers, providing safe storage for personal items.
Can I wear this in very cold weather?
Yes, the sherpa-backed fleece provides significant warmth, making it suitable for cold weather. For extremely low temperatures or adverse conditions, it is recommended to wear it as a layering piece under a more protective outer jacket.
How should I care for the adjustable hem?
The adjustable hem features a shockcord. To maintain its function, ensure the cord and the cord lock are kept clean and free from dirt or lint. Avoid excessive force when adjusting.
What does 'Sherpa Backed' mean?
'Sherpa Backed' refers to a soft, plush lining on the inside of the fleece that resembles sheep's wool, providing extra warmth and comfort.
Troubleshooting
Fleece feels less soft after washing.
Ensure you are washing and drying on recommended low heat settings. Avoid harsh detergents and consider a fabric softener if preferred, though avoid over-reliance.
Zipper is sticking.
Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it catches on fabric, carefully pull the fabric away. Lubricating the zipper teeth with a graphite pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant can help.
Hem adjustment cord is difficult to use.
Ensure the cord lock is clean and free of debris. If it feels stiff, it may loosen with use. Check for any knots or tangles in the cord.
