FAQs
What is the primary material of this jacket?
The jacket is made from 100% Polyester Microfleece, known for being hardwearing and bulk-free.
Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?
No, this fleece jacket is primarily designed for warmth and comfort. It is not waterproof and is best used as a mid-layer in wet conditions, under a waterproof outer shell.
How do I find the right size?
Consult the Regatta sizing guide, which typically provides measurements such as chest size. The size L corresponds to a 42-inch chest.
Can this jacket be worn by women?
While designed for men, the unisex nature of fleece means women may also find it suitable. Check the size guide carefully for appropriate fit, as women's sizing differs.
What is the benefit of the standing collar?
The standing collar provides additional warmth and protection for the neck area against wind and cooler temperatures.
How should I care for the jacket to maintain its quality?
Machine wash at 40°C, do not bleach, and tumble dry on a low heat. Avoid ironing and dry cleaning. Always close zippers before washing.
What does 'Hardwearing' fabric technology mean?
'Hardwearing' indicates that the fabric is designed to be durable and resistant to wear and tear from regular use, making the jacket long-lasting.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Ensure the zipper is clear of fabric. Gently rub the zipper teeth with a graphite pencil or a wax-based lubricant. Make sure zippers are closed before washing to prevent tangling.
Fleece feels less soft after washing
Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can reduce the insulating properties of fleece. Tumble dry on a low heat setting after washing. Ensure you are following the washing temperature guidelines.
Pilling or bobbling on the fabric surface
Pilling can occur with regular friction. To minimize, ensure zippers are closed during washing and avoid washing with abrasive materials. Gentle tumbling in the dryer can sometimes help reduce minor pilling.
Jacket feels too tight or too loose
Refer to the sizing chart provided by Regatta to ensure you have selected the correct size based on chest measurements. The jacket is designed for a comfortable fit, suitable for layering. Ensure cuffs and hem are not overly stretched.
