Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Frankie Fleece Gilet in Black (Size L) is designed for adult males seeking practical warmth and comfort without added bulk, making it ideal for layering on cooler days. Its primary benefit is providing insulation through a soft microfleece while offering enhanced protection with durable poplin overlays. A minor consideration is that it's best suited as a mid-layer rather than a primary outerwear in very harsh weather. Key features include soft microfleece, protective overlays, a zipped chest pocket, two zipped lower pockets, and stretch binding for a comfortable fit.

FAQs

What is the primary purpose of this gilet?

The primary purpose is to provide lightweight warmth and comfort as a layering piece for cooler weather conditions.

Is this gilet waterproof?

No, the gilet is not waterproof. It offers protection against wind and light splashes due to the poplin overlays, but it is not designed for heavy rain.

How should I clean the gilet?

Machine wash at 30°C with similar colours. Avoid bleach and high heat drying or ironing.

Can I wear this as my only jacket in winter?

It is best suited as a mid-layer. For winter conditions, it would need to be worn under a heavier, insulated, or waterproof outer jacket.

What material is the gilet made from?

It is made from a soft microfleece (70% polyester/30% polyester) with durable micro poplin overlays (63% polyester/37% polyester).

Does it have any pockets?

Yes, it features one zipped chest pocket and two zipped lower pockets for secure storage.

What does 'stretch binding' refer to?

Stretch binding is elasticated trim applied to the edges of the collar, armholes, and hem, which helps to create a snug, comfortable fit and prevent heat loss.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is stiff or stuck

Gently try to move the zipper. If it's caught on fabric, carefully pull the fabric away. For stiffness, rub a pencil lead or a small amount of wax along the zipper teeth.

Fleece appears matted after washing

Ensure you are washing on a low temperature and avoiding high heat drying. Use a fabric softener sparingly if needed, and consider air drying to maintain the fleece's texture.

Fit is too tight or loose

Refer to the size chart before purchasing. If the fit is not as expected, and the garment is unworn and in its original condition, consider an exchange or return according to the retailer's policy.
