Regatta Solenne II Fleece - Striped - Pink - Size: 10

The fleece is made from a blend of 88% polyester and 12% cotton, with a weight of 220 g/m².

It provides good warmth as a mid-layer. For very cold conditions, it is best worn under a waterproof and insulated outer jacket.

Yes, it can be worn as an outer layer in mild weather, but it is not waterproof or windproof, so a jacket would be recommended in adverse conditions.

Refer to the sizing chart provided by the retailer. The product description mentions this specific item is a UK size 10.

It indicates that a portion of the polyester used in the fabric has been sourced from recycled sources, contributing to environmental sustainability.

The provided product description does not mention pockets. It highlights a 1/4 length zip and a longer back.

The longer back hem provides additional coverage and warmth, preventing drafts when you are active or bending over.

Avoid using fabric softener, as it can coat the fleece fibers and reduce their ability to trap heat. Wash with a mild detergent on a gentle cycle.

Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper. Apply a small amount of wax or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth for smoother operation.

This is a common occurrence with fleece. Gentle washing and avoiding abrasive contact can minimize it. You can use a fabric shaver to carefully remove pills if they become noticeable.
