Product Information
Full details
This Regatta Floreo IV Fleece is designed for adult women seeking a versatile, lightweight layering piece for outdoor activities or casual wear. Its primary benefit is providing comfortable warmth without bulk, thanks to its anti-pill fleece material. A minor consideration is its primary function as a mid-layer, meaning it may require additional insulation in very cold conditions. Key features include a full zip, two zipped pockets for secure storage, and adjustable hem for a customized fit.

FAQs
What is the primary purpose of this fleece?
The Regatta Floreo IV Fleece is designed as a versatile mid-layer for warmth and comfort, suitable for outdoor activities and casual wear.
What material is the fleece made from?
It is made from a blend of 70% polyester and 30% recycled polyester, with a fabric weight of 240 g/m².
Can this fleece be worn as an outer layer in winter?
It provides good warmth as a mid-layer. For very cold winter conditions, it is recommended to wear it under a more protective outer layer, such as a waterproof or insulated jacket.
How do I adjust the hem?
The hem features an elasticated adjustable drawstring. You can pull or loosen the toggles on either side to tighten or loosen the hem as needed.
Are the pockets secure?
Yes, the two lower pockets feature zippers, providing secure storage for small items.
How should I wash the fleece to maintain its quality?
Machine wash at 30°C on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry.
Is this fleece suitable for men?
This particular model is designed with a women's fit. Regatta offers a range of fleeces suitable for all genders.
Troubleshooting
Fleece feels stiff after washing.
Avoid using fabric softener, which can cause stiffness. If stiffness persists, a very low heat tumble dry might help restore softness.
Zipper is difficult to move.
Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. Lubricating the teeth with a graphite pencil or a small amount of wax can help.
Pilling has started to appear.
While designed to be anti-pill, heavy friction can still cause minor pilling. Use a fabric shaver for a smooth finish. Always follow care instructions to minimize this.
