This fleece is ideal for casual wear, everyday comfort, and light outdoor activities such as walking, gardening, or camping. Its cosy warmth and practical features make it perfect for relaxed adventures or simply staying comfortable at home.

To maintain softness, wash in cold water on a gentle cycle, avoid using fabric softener, and air dry or tumble dry on the lowest heat setting. High heat can damage the fibres and reduce softness and fluffiness.

Yes, the Regatta Frankie Borg Half Zip Fleece features two lower zipped pockets, providing secure storage for small items like keys, cards, or a phone, keeping them safe during your activities.

Borg fleece is designed primarily for warmth, meaning it retains heat effectively. While it offers some breathability for comfort in casual use, it may not be as breathable as technical performance fabrics specifically engineered for high-intensity aerobic activities.

Stretch binding refers to an elasticated trim used around the collar, cuffs, and hem of the fleece. This design feature provides a snug and comfortable fit, helps seal in warmth, and contributes to a neat, polished finish for the garment.

Yes, the Regatta Frankie Borg Half Zip Fleece is 'Made with recycled content,' indicating a commitment to more sustainable manufacturing practices by utilizing recycled materials in its production to reduce environmental impact.

Ensure you are washing on a gentle cycle with cold water and a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softener, as it can sometimes make fleece feel stiff or reduce its wicking properties. Tumble dry on low or air dry to prevent heat damage to the fibres.

Check if any fabric is caught in the zipper teeth and gently pull it away. For persistent stiffness, a small amount of zipper lubricant (e.g., rubbing a graphite pencil on the teeth) can help, but ensure it doesn't stain the fabric.

Pilling can occur with fleece over time, especially in high-friction areas. To minimize it, wash inside out on a gentle cycle and avoid harsh detergents. For existing pills, use a fabric shaver or lint roller designed to remove them carefully.

While very warm, this fleece is designed for 'laid-back adventures' and layering. For extreme cold, consider adding additional thermal base layers underneath or wearing a more insulated and windproof outer jacket on top to enhance warmth retention.
