Product Information
Full details
The Regatta Frankie Borg Bodywarmer is designed for women who need a reliable, cozy layer for everyday casual wear. Its key benefit is the high-insulation borg fleece fabric that provides core warmth while maintaining excellent freedom of movement for active days. A primary caveat to keep in mind is that the borg material is best suited for layering under a waterproof jacket in heavy rain, as it is primarily designed for warmth rather than weatherproofing.

FAQs
Is this bodywarmer machine washable?
Yes, it can be machine washed; however, we recommend a gentle cycle and mild detergent to maintain the fleece texture.
Can I wear this in the rain?
The material is not waterproof. It is best to wear it under a waterproof shell if you expect precipitation.
Does the fleece shed easily?
The borg fabric is constructed to be durable, but like all fleece items, it is best washed inside out to minimize friction.
Is the material stretchy?
While the main body is standard polyester fleece, the stretch bindings at the armholes and hem allow for flexibility and a comfortable, close fit.
Are the pockets deep enough for a phone?
The pockets are designed for general use and comfort, suitable for items like keys or small smartphones.
Troubleshooting
Fleece appears matted after several washes
Use a specialized fabric brush to gently fluff the fibres and avoid high-heat drying.
Fit feels too snug around the armholes
Ensure that the layer underneath is not overly bulky or thick, as the bodywarmer is cut for a streamlined fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This garment requires no setup—it is ready to wear immediately. Due to the nature of the polyester borg fleece, it is compatible with most casual wardrobes, including long-sleeve base layers or knitwear.
Care Instructions:
- Always check the internal care label for specific temperature guidelines.
- Wash on a gentle, cool cycle to preserve the softness of the borg fibres.
- Avoid using harsh fabric softeners which can coat the synthetic fibres and reduce their insulating performance.
- Air dry flat whenever possible to prevent the fabric from losing its shape or developing matting.
