FAQs

Is the Regatta Professional Thor III Fleece waterproof?

No, this fleece is designed for warmth and moisture-wicking, not waterproofing. For rain protection, it should be worn as a mid-layer under a waterproof outer jacket.

What does 'interactive' mean for this fleece?

The 'interactive' feature means this fleece is equipped with a specific zipper system that allows it to be zipped directly into compatible Regatta Professional outer jackets, creating a single, integrated garment for enhanced warmth and versatility.

How should I wash my Thor III Fleece?

Machine wash your fleece at 30°C or 40°C with a mild detergent. It's crucial NOT to use fabric softener, bleach, or to iron the fleece. Tumble dry on low heat or air dry to preserve its quality and performance.

Can I wear this fleece as an outer layer?

Yes, the Thor III Fleece can be worn as a standalone outer layer in cool, dry, and calm conditions. For windy or rainy weather, however, it is recommended to pair it with a suitable windproof or waterproof outer shell.

Are the pockets large enough for a smartphone?

Yes, the zipped lower pockets are designed to securely hold small personal items, including most standard smartphones, keys, and wallets, keeping them safe during activity.

Will this fleece keep me warm in very cold or freezing temperatures?

As a 280 series fleece, it provides good insulation. For very cold or freezing temperatures, it is most effective when used as part of a multi-layer system: worn over a base layer and under a protective outer shell to trap maximum warmth.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels less warm or doesn't wick moisture effectively.

This often happens if fabric softener is used during washing. Fabric softener can coat the fibers and reduce their performance. Re-wash the fleece without softener, or consider using a specialized technical wash for fleece if available.

Pilling (small fabric balls) appears on the surface.

While the fabric is anti-pill, some pilling can occur over time, especially from friction. To minimize this, wash the fleece inside out, avoid washing with abrasive items like jeans, and air dry or tumble dry on low heat.

Zipper snags or is difficult to operate.

Check if any fabric is caught in the zipper teeth. Gently pull the fabric away. If the zipper still sticks, you can rub a graphite pencil (or a dedicated zipper lubricant) along the teeth to help it glide more smoothly.

Adjustable shockcord hem does not hold its position.

Ensure the cord lock mechanism is clean and free from any debris that might prevent it from gripping the cord. If the problem persists, the cord lock mechanism may be worn and could require replacement.

Pros and Cons

  • Excellent moisture-wicking properties for enhanced comfort during activity.
  • Anti-pill fabric ensures durability and maintains appearance over time.
  • Versatile as a mid-layer or a standalone outer layer in cool, dry conditions.
  • Interactive feature enhances compatibility with other Regatta Professional garments.
  • Secure zipped pockets provide practical storage for essentials.
  • Adjustable hem allows for a personalized fit and better heat retention.

Cons

  • Not inherently waterproof, requiring an additional outer layer for rain protection.
  • Offers limited wind resistance compared to specialized windproof jackets.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

There is no complex setup required for the Thor III Fleece. Simply wear it as a standalone garment or as a mid-layer under an existing jacket. To utilize the 'interactive' feature, align and zip the fleece into a compatible Regatta Professional outer jacket that features an interactive zipper system.

Compatibility:

This fleece is designed to be `interactive` with other Regatta Professional jackets that include an interactive zipper. This allows you to seamlessly combine the fleece with an outer shell for a single, integrated warmth and protection system. Ensure your outer jacket specifies 'interactive' compatibility for best fit and function.

Care Instructions:

Proper care will extend the life and performance of your fleece:

  1. Washing: Machine wash at 30°C or 40°C (check care label for specific instructions) using a mild detergent. For best results and to maintain wicking properties, wash inside out with similar colors.
  2. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or, preferably, air dry. Avoid high heat as it can damage the fleece fibers and lead to pilling. Do not wring.
  3. Do NOT Use Fabric Softener: Fabric softeners can clog the fibers, reducing the fleece's breathability and moisture-wicking capabilities.
  4. Do NOT Bleach: Bleach will damage the fabric.
  5. Do NOT Iron: Ironing can melt or flatten the fleece fibers, permanently damaging the garment's texture and insulation.
  6. Do NOT Dry Clean: Dry cleaning chemicals can be harsh on fleece materials.
