FAQs
What is the best way to layer the Hadfield Fleece?
The Hadfield Fleece is ideal as a mid-layer. Wear it over a moisture-wicking base layer and under a waterproof or windproof outer shell for optimal temperature regulation in varying conditions.
Is this fleece suitable for very cold weather?
As a mid-layer, it provides good warmth. For very cold conditions, additional insulation layers or a warmer outer jacket may be necessary.
How do I ensure I get the right size?
Refer to the Regatta sizing chart for men's apparel. Pay close attention to chest measurements and compare them to the garment's specifications. As this is a mid-layer, some prefer a slightly looser fit for comfort.
Can the Hadfield Fleece be worn on its own?
Yes, it can be worn on its own in mild to cool, dry weather. However, it is not designed to be a primary waterproof or windproof garment.
What is the material of the Hadfield Fleece?
The Hadfield Fleece is made from lightweight microfleece, typically polyester, designed for warmth and comfort without bulk.
Are the pockets secure enough for running?
The two zipped pockets offer a good level of security for items like keys or a phone during activities like running or hiking, preventing them from falling out.
Troubleshooting
Fleece feels less warm after washing
Avoid using fabric softener, as it can coat the fibers and reduce insulation. Wash according to care instructions with a mild detergent.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to use
Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. A small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) rubbed on the teeth can help lubricate it.
Pilling on the fabric surface
Pilling is a common occurrence with fleece. To minimize it, wash inside out and avoid excessive rubbing against rough surfaces.
