FAQs

Is the Frankie Borg fleece waterproof?

No, this garment is made of polyester fleece, which is designed for warmth rather than water resistance. It should be worn under a waterproof jacket in wet weather.

How should I wash my fleece?

Machine wash on a cool setting with similar colors. Avoid fabric softeners and bleaching agents to preserve the fabric's soft texture.

Does this fleece have pockets?

The Frankie Borg design focuses on a lightweight, minimalist approach and does not feature zippered pockets.

Is the material breathable?

Yes, the polyester construction is naturally breathable, making it suitable for moderate activity levels without causing overheating.

Can I tumble dry this garment?

It is highly recommended to air dry the fleece to prevent damage to the synthetic fibers and to avoid shrinking.

Troubleshooting

Static buildup in the fleece

Reduce static by air drying rather than using a tumble dryer and consider using a small amount of non-scented dryer sheet or anti-static spray if necessary.

Fabric pilling after washing

Wash the garment inside out to reduce friction against other clothes, and use a dedicated fabric shaver to remove existing pills safely.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent warmth-to-weight ratio
  • Easy to layer under outer shells
  • Soft texture for all-day comfort
  • Simple half-zip mechanism for ventilation

Cons

  • Provides no inherent waterproof protection
  • Polyester can trap odors after intense activity
  • Lacks zippered pockets for secure storage

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For optimal performance, use the Frankie Borg Fleece as part of a layering system: start with a moisture-wicking base layer and top it with a waterproof or windproof outer shell if the forecast predicts rain or strong winds. To maintain the integrity of the fabric, machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle with mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can diminish the performance of the insulating fibers. Always air dry the garment flat or on a hanger to prevent stretching, and keep it away from direct high-heat sources like radiators, which can degrade the synthetic fibers over time.
