Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Frankie men's gilet is designed for adults seeking a practical and versatile layering option for cooler weather. Its key benefit is providing warmth and comfort through soft microfleece, with added durability from poplin overlays. A potential caveat is that it serves best as a mid-layer and may not offer substantial protection in very harsh conditions. Key features include its soft microfleece construction, durable poplin overlays, and multiple zippered pockets for secure storage.

FAQs

What is the main purpose of this gilet?

The Regatta Frankie gilet is designed to provide warmth and comfort as a practical layering piece for cooler weather, suitable for casual wear, outdoor activities, or commuting.

What materials is the gilet made from?

The main body is made from 70% polyester/30% polyester micro fleece (210 gsm), with overlays of 63% polyester/37% polyester micro poplin with a PA coating (84 gsm).

How many pockets does the gilet have and are they secure?

Yes, it features three zippered pockets: one on the chest and two on the lower part of the gilet, providing secure storage.

Can this gilet be worn in heavy rain?

While it has PA coating on the overlays, it is primarily designed for warmth and moderate conditions. For heavy rain, it is recommended to wear a waterproof outer layer over the gilet.

How should I clean and care for the gilet?

Machine wash at 30°C on a delicate cycle, do not bleach, tumble dry on low heat or line dry, and do not iron or dry clean.

Is this gilet suitable for very cold winter weather?

It is best suited as a mid-layer for moderate cold. For very cold winter weather, you would likely need to layer it with a warmer insulating jacket or coat.

Does the gilet come in other colors or sizes?

This specific product listing is for the Blue color in size L. Other sizes may be available from the brand. You would need to check the product listing for available variations.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is stiff or stuck.

Gently try to move the zipper while applying a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a silicone-based lubricant to the teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track.

Fleece material feels pilled or rough.

This can occur with wear. Ensure you are following the washing instructions (delicate cycle, no harsh detergents). Regular washing according to care labels should maintain softness.

Gilet feels too tight or restrictive.

Check the size guide and compare it to your measurements. Consider if you are wearing too many layers underneath. This gilet is designed for layering, so ensure adequate space for movement.
