FAQs
What is the primary purpose of this fleece?
The Regatta Margot 1/4 Zip Fleece is designed as a versatile mid-layer for warmth and comfort during outdoor activities or as casual wear. It offers a good balance of insulation without being overly bulky.
How should I determine the correct size?
Refer to the Regatta sizing guide for women's apparel. Given that it's a fleece, consider if you prefer a snug fit for layering or a looser fit for more room.
Can this fleece be worn as an outer layer?
Yes, it can be worn as an outer layer in mild, dry conditions. However, for significant wind or rain, an outer shell jacket is recommended.
Does the fleece contain any recycled materials?
Yes, 30% of the polyester used in the fleece is recycled, contributing to a more sustainable product.
How do I clean the fleece to maintain its anti-pilling properties?
Wash on a cold cycle (30°C) with similar colours, avoid bleach, and tumble dry on low or air dry. Avoid ironing and dry cleaning.
What is the weight of the fleece material?
The fleece material weighs 170 g/m².
What does 'anti-pilling' mean?
Anti-pilling means the fabric is treated or constructed in a way that reduces the formation of small balls of fiber (pills) on the surface, keeping the garment looking smoother for longer.
Troubleshooting
Fleece feels stiff after washing.
Ensure you are using a gentle cycle and avoiding fabric softeners, which can affect the fleece's texture. Air drying or low tumble drying is recommended.
Pilling has started to appear.
While the fleece is treated to resist pilling, excessive friction or harsh washing can still cause it. Gentle washing and avoiding abrasive surfaces can help minimise this.
Stretch attachments feel too tight.
The stretch attachments are designed for a snug fit. Try gently stretching them by hand over time or wearing the garment to allow them to adapt to your shape.
