FAQs

Is the Thor III fleece waterproof?

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.

How should I wash my Thor III fleece?

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.

What does 'Interactive Zip Compatible' mean?

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.

Can I wear this fleece as an outer jacket?

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.

What does '280gsm' refer to?

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.

Is this fleece suitable for very cold weather?

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.

Does this fleece come in other colors or sizes?

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.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels damp or not as warm as expected during activity.

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.

Zipper gets stuck or doesn't glide smoothly.

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.

Minor pilling observed despite 'anti-pill' feature.

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.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent thermal layer for cold weather conditions
  • Highly durable with anti-pill fabric treatment
  • Keeps you dry and comfortable through active use
  • Secure storage with two zipped pockets
  • Versatile for layering with interactive zip system
  • Adjustable hem for a custom fit and warmth retention

Cons

  • Not designed as a primary waterproof or windproof outer layer
  • Polyester material may feel less breathable than natural fibers for some users in very specific conditions
  • Regular fit might not appeal to all body types or style preferences when worn alone

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Using the Thor III Fleece is straightforward. Simply put it on and adjust the full zip to your comfort level. For an optimal fit, use the adjustable shockcord hem to cinch the bottom edge, trapping warmth and preventing drafts.

Compatibility

This fleece features Interactive Zip Compatibility, meaning it's specifically designed to zip into compatible Regatta Professional outer jackets. This allows you to combine it with a waterproof or windproof shell, effectively creating a versatile 3-in-1 jacket system. It can also be worn as a standalone layer over a t-shirt or base layer.

Care Instructions

To maintain the quality and performance of your Thor III fleece, follow these care guidelines:

  • Washing: Machine wash at 30°C (86°F) on a gentle cycle. It is recommended to wash the fleece inside out.
  • Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can reduce the fleece's wicking properties and cause residue buildup.
  • Bleaching: Do not bleach.
  • Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting, or preferably, air dry flat or hang to dry away from direct sunlight. The quick-drying nature of the fabric means it won't take long.
  • Ironing: Do not iron.
  • Dry Cleaning: Do not dry clean.
  • General Tips: Avoid washing with abrasive items (e.g., items with zippers or velcro) that could damage the fleece fabric. Fasten all zippers before washing.
