Product Information
Full details
The Regatta Frankie Borg Bodywarmer is designed for women seeking lightweight, essential core warmth during casual outings or daily activities in cooler weather. Crafted from soft, durable borg fleece with a brushed backing, this vest offers excellent insulation while ensuring unrestricted arm movement for comfort on the go. While it is an ideal layering piece for transitional seasons, please note that it lacks water-repellent outer treatments, making it best suited for dry, chilly conditions rather than heavy rain.

FAQs
Is the Regatta Frankie Borg Bodywarmer waterproof?
No, this garment is made from borg fleece and is designed for warmth rather than weather protection. It is intended for dry conditions.
Can I wear this under a rain jacket?
Yes, its low-profile design and sleeveless cut make it an excellent insulating mid-layer to wear underneath a waterproof shell.
How does the sizing run for this model?
This model follows standard UK sizing. If you plan to wear it over bulky knits, ensure you select your regular size or check the fit around the chest.
What material is this bodywarmer made from?
It is constructed from 100% polyester borg fleece, chosen for its insulating properties and durability.
Are the pockets zippered?
The pockets are designed as open-style lower pockets for convenient access to your essentials.
How should I store this garment?
It is best stored on a wide-shouldered hanger in a cool, dry place to maintain the shape of the armholes and hem.
Troubleshooting
Fleece appears matted after washing
Use a specialized fabric brush or a gentle garment comb once the item is completely dry to restore the loft of the short fibres.
Static buildup on the vest
Lightly mist the garment with water or use a dedicated anti-static spray. Avoid using chemical dryer sheets during the wash process.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
As a layering garment, ensure you choose a size that fits comfortably over your intended base layers—in this case, a UK size 20 offers a generous fit for heavier sweaters. To maintain the integrity of the borg fleece, machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle with similar colours. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can affect the performance of the fleece fibres. Always air dry the garment flat or on a hanger to prevent the material from losing its shape or matting, and avoid tumble drying or ironing, which can melt or damage the synthetic polyester fibres.
