Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Frankie Half-Zip Fleece is designed for outdoor enthusiasts and active adults who need a versatile, insulating mid-layer for walks, travel, and daily excursions. Its key benefit lies in the 210gsm microfleece fabric combined with durable poplin overlays that provide both warmth and longevity, though users should note that as a fleece, it is not inherently waterproof or windproof on its own.

FAQs

Is this fleece waterproof?

No, the Regatta Frankie is made of microfleece and is not waterproof; it should be paired with a waterproof jacket in wet conditions.

Can I wear this as a base layer?

It is designed primarily as a mid-layer; it may be bulky if worn directly against the skin under a tight-fitting garment.

How should I wash the fleece?

Machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle without fabric softener to maintain the integrity of the fibers.

Does it have side pockets?

No, this model features a single secure zipped chest pocket for essentials.

Is the fabric breathable?

Yes, the 210gsm microfleece is breathable, making it excellent for active pursuits.

What is the purpose of the poplin panels?

The poplin panels are placed in high-wear areas to add durability and protection where the fabric experiences the most friction.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels less warm after multiple washes

Check if fabric softener was used, which can flatten the fleece pile; switch to a gentle detergent and skip the softener.

Zip feels stiff or sticks

Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper teeth and consider applying a tiny amount of dry lubricant if it continues to catch.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Lightweight and highly packable for travel
  • Reinforced panels increase durability in high-stress zones
  • Half-zip allows for rapid temperature control
  • Soft, comfortable material suited for all-day wear

Cons

  • Not windproof or waterproof
  • Limited to chest storage rather than full side pockets
  • Requires layering during harsh weather conditions

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This garment requires no specific setup; it is ready to wear immediately. To ensure long-term performance, follow these care instructions: wash the fleece in cool water on a gentle cycle to preserve the softness of the microfleece. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can coat the synthetic fibers and reduce their moisture-wicking efficiency. Always hang dry the fleece or tumble dry on a low-heat setting to prevent the elastic binding from losing its shape or elasticity over time. When layering, pair this piece with a synthetic or merino wool base layer for the best moisture management.
