FAQs
Is this fleece waterproof?
No, the Montes fleece is designed for warmth and breathability; it is not waterproof and should be worn under a shell during wet conditions.
Can I wear this as a base layer?
Yes, its lightweight polyester construction makes it comfortable against the skin, though many prefer it as a midlayer.
Does the material stretch?
The polyester material offers a natural amount of flexibility that moves with your body during active use.
Is this machine washable?
Yes, it is machine washable, but we recommend a cool, gentle cycle and air drying to maintain quality.
How do I choose the right size?
The fleece generally follows standard UK dress sizing; if you plan to wear thick items underneath, consider sizing up.
Troubleshooting
Fabric piling after frequent use
Use a specialized fabric shaver to gently remove surface fuzz, and ensure you are washing the garment inside out to reduce friction.
Zip feels stiff or sticks
Apply a small amount of graphite from a pencil tip to the zip teeth to lubricate the track, ensuring smooth movement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Regatta Montes fleece maintains its integrity, machine wash it in cool water on a gentle cycle. Avoid using harsh bleaching agents or fabric softeners, as these can degrade the performance fibers of the polyester. Air drying is highly recommended to preserve the shape and texture of the fleece. In terms of compatibility, this garment is designed to fit true to size. It layers seamlessly under most standard waterproof shells, but if you prefer a looser fit for extra layering, you may consider sizing up.
