Product Information
Full details
The Regatta Frankie Fleece is an ideal choice for adult men seeking a reliable, comfortable mid-layer for outdoor activities like hiking, traveling, or general everyday use. Its primary strength lies in the combination of soft, warming microfleece with durable poplin panels for enhanced protection; however, users should note that as a half-zip garment, it is primarily designed for layering rather than as a standalone heavy-duty weather shell.

FAQs
Is the Regatta Frankie Fleece waterproof?
No, it is designed for warmth and comfort. While it offers some protection, it should be paired with a waterproof jacket in heavy rain.
What is the primary material used?
The garment is primarily made of durable polyester, featuring specific sections with reinforced poplin panels.
Can I wash this in a standard washing machine?
Yes, it is machine washable. We recommend using a cool, gentle cycle to maintain the integrity of the microfleece.
Is this fleece suitable for high-intensity activity?
It is breathable and great for hiking or walking, though if you are doing extremely high-intensity sports, you may prefer a thinner base layer.
Does it have pockets?
The Frankie half-zip design focuses on a streamlined fit for layering and does not typically include integrated pockets.
Troubleshooting
Pilling or small balls of fiber appearing on the surface
Pilling is common with fleece over time; use a fabric shaver or lint roller to gently remove surface fuzz.
Zip feels stiff or sticks during use
Ensure no fabric is caught in the teeth and gently rub a candle or graphite pencil along the zip track to lubricate it.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Regatta Frankie Fleece retains its insulating properties and durability, follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle. Avoid using heavy detergents or fabric softeners, as these can degrade the fleece fibers.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible by laying the garment flat. Avoid tumble drying on high heat, which may cause the synthetic fabric to pill or shrink.
- Compatibility: This garment pairs perfectly with standard shell jackets. Because it is made of polyester, it will dry relatively quickly if it gets damp.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent potential color fading over extended periods.
