FAQs
Is this fleece waterproof?
No, it is designed for warmth and breathability. It should be worn under a waterproof jacket if you expect rain.
Can I tumble dry the Regatta Hot Shot II?
It is recommended to air dry to maintain the integrity of the synthetic fabric and prevent potential shrinkage.
What does 'anti-pill' mean?
It means the fabric has been treated to prevent the formation of small balls of fiber (pills) on the surface, keeping it looking new for longer.
Is this suitable for summer evenings?
Yes, it is excellent for summer evenings by the campfire when the temperature drops, as it is lightweight.
How should I choose the right size?
The product follows standard UK children's sizing. If in doubt, sizing up allows for comfortable layering underneath.
Troubleshooting
Fleece feels less warm after many washes
Ensure you are not using fabric conditioner, which can coat the fibers and reduce their ability to trap heat.
Zipper sticks or is difficult to move
Check for loose threads or fabric caught in the zipper track; keep the track clean of mud or grit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your Regatta fleece in optimal condition, machine wash at a low temperature (usually 30 or 40 degrees Celsius) using a mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can compromise the performance of the fleece fibers and the anti-pill treatment. Always hang dry the garment away from direct heat sources to prevent shrinkage or damage to the synthetic fibers. This fleece is fully compatible with most waterproof outer shells and fits well over standard long-sleeve base layers.
