Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Frankie Borg Half-Zip Fleece is an essential layering piece for women seeking reliable warmth and comfort during casual daily activities. Designed with a soft, plush borg fleece fabric, it provides excellent insulation for commutes, weekend outings, or lounging at home. While it offers superior comfort in cool conditions, users should note that the fleece lacks windproof or waterproof ratings, making it best suited as a mid-layer or for fair-weather outdoor use.

FAQs

Is this fleece windproof?

No, the Regatta Frankie Borg fleece is designed for insulation and comfort. It does not have a windproof membrane, so it is best worn as a layer under a shell on windy days.

Can I wear this in the rain?

The fabric is not water-resistant or waterproof. It will absorb water, so it is recommended to wear a waterproof jacket over it if rain is expected.

How does the sizing run?

The fleece features a relaxed fit. Most users find it fits true to size, with enough room to wear a base layer underneath.

Is this item suitable for hiking?

It is suitable for casual walking or light hiking in cool, dry weather. For intense, high-output mountaineering, you may prefer a more breathable, technical fleece.

Does it have pockets?

The standard design focuses on a clean silhouette with a half-zip; please check the specific product variant for pocket inclusions as standard configurations vary.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels less soft after multiple washes

Avoid using fabric softeners which can coat the fibers and cause matting. Use a gentle detergent and ensure you air dry the garment.

Static electricity build-up

Static is common with synthetic fleece. Using a specialized laundry additive or ensuring the garment is not over-dried in low humidity can help.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptionally soft and comfortable texture
  • Easy-to-adjust ventilation via the half-zip
  • Relaxed fit allows for comfortable layering
  • Great insulation for autumn and winter transitions

Cons

  • Not windproof, which may reduce warmth in heavy breezes
  • Material is not waterproof or water-resistant
  • Requires careful washing to maintain fleece softness

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep your fleece feeling soft and effective, follow these care instructions:

  1. Washing: Machine wash on a gentle, cool cycle to protect the integrity of the borg fibers.
  2. Drying: Air drying is recommended to prevent matting of the fleece material; avoid high-heat tumble drying.
  3. Layering: This piece pairs best with a moisture-wicking base layer underneath if you are planning on being physically active, as borg fleece can trap perspiration.
  4. Storage: Fold and store in a dry location; avoid hanging for long periods if the material becomes heavy when damp to prevent shoulder stretching.
