Thor III Interactive Full Zip Fleece - Red

No, the Thor III fleece is not waterproof. It is designed as a warming, quick-drying midlayer for insulation. For protection against rain or heavy moisture, it should be worn under a waterproof outer jacket.

Machine wash at 30°C (86°F) on a gentle cycle, preferably inside out. Do not use bleach or fabric softener. Tumble dry on low heat or, ideally, air dry to preserve its longevity and wicking properties.

This feature allows you to seamlessly zip the Thor III fleece into compatible Regatta Professional outer jackets. This creates a versatile 3-in-1 system, providing extra warmth and insulation when needed, effectively turning a shell jacket into an insulated garment.

Yes, you can wear the Thor III fleece on its own in cool, dry conditions. However, for colder temperatures, wind, or rain, it performs best as a midlayer underneath a protective outer shell for optimal performance and comfort.

280gsm (grams per square meter) indicates the density or weight of the fleece fabric. A higher GSM generally means a thicker, warmer fabric, making this a good mid-weight option for insulation and warmth.

While it provides good warmth as a midlayer, for very cold or extreme conditions, you would typically need to combine the Thor III fleece with a suitable base layer and a high-performance, insulated outer jacket for optimal protection.

Yes, the Regatta Professional Thor III range is typically available in various colors and sizes, including options for different genders, as part of the broader product line. Please check product listings for specific availability.

Ensure you are layering correctly. The quick-drying feature works best when moisture can evaporate. Avoid wearing cotton base layers underneath, as cotton absorbs and holds moisture. If used as an outer layer in wet conditions, it will absorb water as it's not waterproof; consider pairing it with a waterproof shell.

Gently check for any fabric snags around the zipper teeth. Try lubricating the zipper teeth with a zipper lubricant or a graphite pencil to improve glide. Always ensure the zipper is aligned correctly before attempting to pull it up or down forcefully.

While designed to resist pilling, aggressive friction or improper washing can sometimes cause minor pilling over time. To minimize this, wash inside out on a gentle cycle, avoid washing with very abrasive materials, and air dry if possible. A fabric shaver can carefully remove small pills if they occur.
