Product Information
Full details
The Regatta Frankie Borg Half Zip fleece is designed for adult men seeking lightweight insulation for everyday outdoor adventures, casual walking, or travel. Crafted from soft, high-pile borg fleece, it provides immediate, cosy comfort that integrates effortlessly into any layered clothing system. While it excels as a mid-layer for warmth, it is not a waterproof shell and is best used as part of a weather-resistant outfit during cool, dry conditions.

FAQs
Is the Regatta Frankie Borg fleece windproof?
No, it is designed for insulation. In high winds, you should layer a windproof or waterproof shell over the top.
Can I wear this as my main outer layer?
Yes, in dry, cool conditions it serves as an excellent outer layer. However, it offers no protection against rain.
What is the best way to wash this fleece?
We recommend a machine wash on a delicate cycle at 30°C with similar colors.
Does this fleece have pockets?
The standard design focuses on the half-zip aesthetic and does not typically include pockets.
Is the sizing true to fit?
The Frankie Borg fleece follows standard men's sizing. If you plan on wearing thick layers underneath, you may consider sizing up.
Troubleshooting
Fleece feels less soft after multiple washes
Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can coat the fibers and reduce their loft. Use a gentle wash cycle and shake the garment out before drying.
Static buildup on the fabric
Lightly mist the garment with water or use a dedicated anti-static spray if the fleece is being worn in very dry, cold air conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your fleece maintains its soft texture and insulating properties, follow these care instructions:
- Cleaning: Machine wash on a gentle cycle, ideally at 30 degrees Celsius, using a mild detergent.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible. Avoid high-heat tumble drying, as this can degrade the synthetic fleece fibers and compromise the softness of the borg material.
- Compatibility: This garment pairs well with base-layer thermal tops for added warmth or Regatta waterproof shells for a complete outdoor ensemble.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
