Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Thompson Fleece is designed for adult males seeking a durable and cozy mid-layer for outdoor activities or casual wear. Its key benefit is its versatility and comfort, derived from recycled polyester with anti-pill and brushed finishes. A potential caveat is its specific use as a mid-layer, meaning it may require an additional outer shell in very cold or wet conditions.

FAQs

What is the main purpose of this fleece?

The Regatta Thompson Fleece is designed as a versatile mid-layer, providing warmth and comfort for outdoor activities or casual wear. It’s ideal for layering under a jacket in cooler conditions.

Is this fleece waterproof?

No, this fleece is not waterproof. It is made of polyester fleece and is designed to provide warmth and breathability. For protection against rain, an additional waterproof outer layer is recommended.

How do I know if I need to size up or down?

Refer to the brand's specific sizing chart for accurate measurements. As it's a mid-layer, consider wearing it over another garment and ensure there is enough room for comfortable movement.

Can this fleece be worn on its own in cold weather?

While it provides warmth, it is best suited as a mid-layer. For significantly cold weather, especially with wind or moisture, it should be paired with a windproof and/or waterproof outer layer.

How does the recycled polyester benefit the environment?

Using recycled polyester reduces the demand for virgin materials and diverts plastic bottles from landfills, contributing to a more sustainable production cycle.

What does 'anti-pill' finish mean?

An anti-pill finish means the fabric is treated to resist the formation of small balls or 'pills' on its surface, helping the garment maintain a smoother appearance over time and through washing.

Can I dry clean this fleece?

It is recommended to machine wash the fleece according to the care label. Dry cleaning is generally not necessary and may affect the fabric's properties.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels less warm after washing

Avoid using fabric softener, as it can coat the fibers and reduce their insulating properties. Ensure the fleece is completely dry before wearing.

Pilling appearing on the surface

Although designed with an anti-pill finish, excessive friction or rough handling during washing can sometimes cause minor pilling. Gentle washing and avoiding abrasive materials can help. If pilling occurs, a fabric shaver can carefully remove it.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to clear any obstructions. A small amount of lubricant, like graphite from a pencil lead applied to the teeth, can help smooth the zipper's action.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Made from recycled materials, promoting sustainability.
  • Durable with an anti-pill finish that maintains appearance.
  • Comfortable brushed inner lining for warmth.
  • Versatile as a mid-layer for various outdoor activities.
  • Easy to care for with machine washability.

Cons

  • Primarily a mid-layer, may not be sufficient as an outer layer in harsh weather.
  • Limited wind and water resistance on its own.
  • Specific sizing might not fit all body types perfectly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Regatta Thompson Fleece requires no setup. It is ready to wear straight out of the packaging.

Compatibility: This fleece is designed as a versatile mid-layer. It pairs well with base layers (like thermals) and outer shells (like waterproof or windproof jackets) for a complete layering system. It is suitable for adult males across various activity levels.

Care Instructions:

  • Machine Washable: Follow the care label instructions. Typically, this involves washing at a low temperature (e.g., 30-40°C).
  • Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can affect the fleece's properties.
  • Drying: It is best to air dry the fleece. Tumble drying on a low heat setting may be possible, but check the garment's label. Avoid high heat.
  • Ironing: Do not iron, as high heat can damage the synthetic fibers.
