Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Thompson Lightweight Half Zip Fleece is designed for active adults who need a versatile, reliable midlayer for trekking, walking, or everyday outdoor use. Its standout benefit is the combination of a durable, anti-pill exterior with a soft, brushed interior that provides warmth without unnecessary bulk. While it excels in comfort and temperature regulation, users should note that as a lightweight fleece, it is best suited as a midlayer rather than a standalone shell in heavy wind or rain.

FAQs

Is this fleece windproof?

No, this is a lightweight fleece intended for insulation and breathability, not wind protection. We recommend wearing a windproof shell over it in gusty conditions.

Can I wear this as a base layer?

While you can, it is designed primarily as a midlayer. It works best over a moisture-wicking synthetic or merino wool base layer.

Does the fleece shrink in the wash?

Polyester is generally resistant to shrinking; however, for best results, avoid high-heat tumble drying.

What does anti-pill mean?

Anti-pill refers to a fabric treatment that prevents the fibers from tangling and forming small balls (pills) on the surface, keeping the garment looking new for longer.

How should I store the fleece?

Hang the fleece in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the fabric's loft and color.

Troubleshooting

Fabric appearing fuzzy or pilling

While the fabric is anti-pill, ensure you are washing the garment inside out and avoiding abrasive wash cycles to minimize friction.

Zip feels stiff or sticks

Check for loose threads or lint trapped in the zipper track; gently clear any debris to ensure smooth operation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This garment requires no setup—simply wear as needed. It is designed for maximum compatibility with other outdoor layers, fitting easily under standard waterproof jackets or parkas. To maintain the integrity of the polyester fabric and the soft-brushed finish, machine wash on a gentle cycle with similar colors. Avoid using harsh fabric softeners or bleach, as these can degrade the technical properties of the fleece. Always line dry when possible to preserve the shape and fabric quality over time.
