FAQs

What is the primary purpose of this fleece?

The Regatta Fleece Pullover Jacket is primarily designed as a versatile midlayer, providing warmth and comfort during outdoor activities. It can be worn on its own or layered under other outerwear.

Can this fleece be worn as an outer layer in wet weather?

While the fleece offers some protection, it is not waterproof or windproof. For wet or windy conditions, it is recommended to wear a waterproof or windproof jacket over the fleece.

How do I wash the fleece to maintain its quality?

Machine wash at a low temperature (30°C or 40°C) with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and tumble dry on a low heat setting or air dry. Do not iron.

Is the fleece suitable for very cold temperatures?

The fleece provides good insulation, but for very cold temperatures, it functions best as part of a layering system. You may need to wear additional insulating layers or a heavy-duty outer jacket.

What does 'anti-pill' mean?

The 'anti-pill' finish means the fabric is treated to resist the formation of small balls or 'pills' on its surface, which helps maintain the garment's smooth appearance and feel over time.

Is this fleece suitable for everyday wear or just outdoor activities?

Its comfortable and durable design makes it suitable for both everyday casual wear and dedicated outdoor activities. The zip neck allows for adjustable comfort in various settings.

What is the weight of the fleece fabric?

The fleece is made from 170gsm recycled polyester, indicating a midweight fabric suitable for versatile layering.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels less warm than expected.

Ensure the fleece is clean and free from dirt or debris that might impede its insulating properties. If used as a midlayer, ensure your outer layer is effectively blocking wind. For extreme cold, consider an additional insulating layer.

Pilling is appearing on the surface.

While designed to be anti-pill, excessive friction or harsh washing can still cause minor pilling. Try washing inside out and avoid abrasive contact with other garments. If pilling occurs, a fabric shaver can often remove it.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.

Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it remains stiff, a small amount of graphite from a pencil rubbed on the zipper teeth can help lubricate it.
