FAQs
What is the primary material of the Newhill fleece?
The Newhill fleece is made from a two-tone mélange knitted fleece, composed of 70% polyester and 30% recycled polyester, with a weight of 280 g/m².
Is this fleece suitable for very cold weather?
The fleece provides good warmth and is excellent for layering. For very cold or harsh conditions, it is recommended to wear it as a mid-layer under a waterproof and windproof outer shell.
How do I ensure I get the right size?
Refer to the Regatta size guide for men's apparel. Consider the chest measurement and compare it with the product's specific measurements if available. This model is a size S.
Can I wear this fleece in the rain?
The fleece is not waterproof. It offers some resistance to light moisture but will become saturated in rain. A waterproof outer layer is necessary for protection against wet weather.
What is the benefit of the stretch binding?
The stretch binding on the collar and hem ensures a snug fit, which helps to keep the warmth in and prevent drafts from entering, enhancing overall comfort.
How many pockets does this fleece have?
The fleece features multiple zipped pockets: two on the lower sides and one on the sleeve, providing secure storage for personal items.
Does the material contain recycled content?
Yes, 30% of the polyester content in the fleece is made from recycled materials.
Troubleshooting
Fleece feels stiff after washing.
Avoid using fabric softener. If stiffness persists, try a tumble dry on low heat.
Zipper is difficult to move.
Gently try to wiggle the zipper. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a wax-based product to the zipper teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper.
Pilling on the fabric surface.
Pilling is common with knitted fleece. Use a fabric shaver to gently remove pills. Avoid excessive friction during wear and washing.
Color fading.
Wash in cold water, inside out, and avoid direct sunlight when drying. Use detergents that are color-safe.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
The Regatta Newhill fleece requires no complex setup; it is ready to wear straight out of the packaging. Its design prioritizes ease of use and maintenance.
Care Instructions:
To maintain the fleece's softness and performance, follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with similar colors. Use a mild detergent. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners, as they can degrade the fabric's properties.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or, preferably, hang dry to preserve the fabric's integrity and prevent shrinkage.
- Ironing: Do not iron. The fabric is not intended to be ironed, and high heat can damage the knit effect and synthetic fibers.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight which can fade colors.
