Regatta Hadfield Fleece - Green - L

The Hadfield fleece is made from a hardwearing microfleece consisting of 70% polyester and 30% recycled polyester, weighing 210 g/m².

It is designed as a mid-layer, providing good insulation. For very cold conditions, it is recommended to wear it over a warm base layer and under a waterproof or insulated outer jacket.

Machine wash at 30°C on a gentle cycle, do not bleach, and tumble dry on low heat. Avoid dry cleaning and wash with similar colors.

No, this model of the Regatta Hadfield fleece does not feature a hood. It has stretch binding on the collar.

The product description mentions two zipped lower pockets for secure storage, but specific dimensions are not provided. They are designed to hold essentials like a phone or keys.

While it can be worn as an outer layer in mild, dry conditions, it is primarily intended as a mid-layer for insulation. It does not offer significant protection against wind or rain on its own.

The fleece has an anti-pilling finish on one side, which helps to prevent the formation of small balls of fiber on the fabric surface, maintaining a smoother appearance over time.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Consider layering with thinner base layers or trying a size up if more room is needed for movement.

While one side is designed to be anti-pilling, excessive friction can still cause pilling. Follow care instructions carefully, avoid harsh washing, and consider a fabric shaver for minor pilling.

Gently pull the fabric away from the zipper teeth before operating. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or wax to the zipper teeth to improve glide.

This is a mid-layer. For colder conditions, layer it over a warmer base layer or add a more substantial outer shell for wind and extra insulation.
