Product Information
Full details
The Regatta Frankie Borg Fleece is designed for adults seeking a reliable, lightweight insulating layer for everyday outdoor activities. Crafted from soft, tactile borg fleece, this garment offers exceptional comfort and warmth, making it a perfect companion for walking, travel, or casual layering in cooler weather. While it provides excellent thermal regulation, its casual design is primarily suited for active and recreational use rather than technical high-altitude mountaineering.

FAQs
Is the Frankie Borg Fleece windproof?
No, this garment is designed for warmth and insulation, not as a windproof shell. We recommend wearing a windproof jacket over it in exposed areas.
Can I tumble dry this fleece?
It is not recommended. For the longevity of the fleece material, we suggest air drying away from direct heat sources.
What is the primary material used?
The Frankie Borg fleece is constructed from a soft, high-loft synthetic fleece designed to provide warmth and comfort.
Does it have pockets?
The base design of the Frankie Borg Fleece focuses on a clean silhouette and typically does not feature external pockets.
Is this suitable for high-intensity exercise?
It is perfect for walking and casual outdoor activities, though its insulation may be too warm for high-intensity, anaerobic exercise.
Does the fleece provide water resistance?
The material is not waterproof or water-resistant. It is intended to be used as a mid-layer or for dry-weather outdoor use.
Troubleshooting
Fleece feels less soft after multiple washes
Ensure you are not using fabric softener and consider a gentle cycle with a dedicated wool or synthetic wash to preserve fiber integrity.
Zipper feels stiff or catches
Clean any debris or lint from the zipper track and ensure no fabric is snagged behind the guard before zipping.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your fleece maintains its loft and thermal properties, follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle at 30 degrees Celsius using a mild detergent.
- Avoid Fabric Softeners: Do not use fabric softeners, as they can degrade the specialized fleece fibers and reduce breathability.
- Drying: Air dry the garment on a flat surface or a hanger; avoid high-heat tumble drying as it can damage the borg texture.
- Compatibility: Pairs optimally with breathable, non-insulated shell jackets to create a comprehensive moisture-management layering system.
