Troubleshooting
Fleece feels less warm after washing
Avoid using fabric softener during washing, as it can coat the fleece fibers and reduce their ability to trap air. Re-wash with a mild detergent only.
Zipper is difficult to move
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to dislodge any obstruction. You can also use a graphite pencil or a small amount of wax to lubricate the zipper track.
Pilling on the surface of the fleece
Pilling is a common characteristic of fleece. To minimize it, wash the fleece inside out and avoid excessive abrasion. Use a fabric shaver for minor pilling.
Garment feels too large or small
Refer to the Regatta sizing chart for accurate measurements. Consider the intended use; a slightly larger size might be suitable for layering over thicker items.
