Full details
The Regatta Demmi women's fleece is designed for adult females seeking a comfortable and versatile layer for cooler weather. Its key benefit is providing warmth and a relaxed fit for everyday activities like park strolls or casual outings.

FAQs
What type of fabric is the Demmi fleece made from?
The Demmi fleece is made from a soft, two-tone stripe fleece fabric, designed for comfort and warmth.
Is this fleece suitable for very cold winter weather?
The Demmi fleece provides good warmth for cooler days and is excellent as a mid-layer. For very cold conditions, it should be combined with additional insulating layers and an outer shell.
How do I ensure I order the correct size?
Refer to the sizing chart provided by the retailer. This fleece is available in UK women's dress sizes. Ensure you measure accurately before purchasing.
Can the half-zip be fully opened?
The description mentions a 'half-zip design', which typically means it zips up to the neck and can be partially unzipped for ventilation, but does not open completely flat like a full-zip jacket.
What are the side splits for?
The side splits are located at the hem of the fleece. They allow for a more relaxed fit and provide greater ease of movement.
How should I wash this fleece to keep it in good condition?
Machine wash at a low temperature (e.g., 30°C) with similar colours, using a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and tumble dry on low heat or air dry.
Is this fleece waterproof?
No, this fleece is made from fabric designed for warmth and comfort; it is not waterproof. For protection against rain, you would need to wear a waterproof outer layer.
Troubleshooting
Fleece losing softness or becoming matted
Avoid using fabric softener during washing. Wash on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent and tumble dry on low heat or air dry.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to work the zipper up and down. A small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a specialized zipper lubricant can help ease movement.
Pilling on the fleece surface
Pilling is natural with fleece. You can use a fabric shaver to gently remove small pills. Washing inside out can sometimes help minimize pilling.
