FAQs

What is the main material of the Regatta Newhill II Fleece?

The fleece is made from polyester marl brushed-back knit-effect fabric, designed for warmth and comfort.

Is this fleece waterproof?

No, the Regatta Newhill II Fleece is not waterproof. It is designed as an insulating layer and should be worn with a waterproof outer layer in wet conditions.

How should I clean the fleece?

Machine wash at 40°C with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and do not bleach or iron. Tumble dry on low or hang dry.

Does it have pockets?

Yes, the fleece features multiple pockets for convenient storage of essentials.

What activities is this fleece best suited for?

It is ideal for outdoor adventures such as hiking, camping, and casual wear on chilly days. It also serves well as a comfortable layer for everyday use.

Are there similar models available for men?

While this specific model is designed for women, Regatta offers a range of fleece options suitable for men; please check their broader product line for comparable items.

How does the stretch binding on the cuffs and hem help?

The stretch binding is designed to fit snugly, helping to keep the cold air out and retain your body heat for increased warmth and comfort.

Troubleshooting

Fleece loses its softness after washing.

Avoid using fabric softener. Wash in cool water and tumble dry on a low setting. Consider a specialized fleece wash if issues persist.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth and slide it back and forth gently.

Fleece feels less warm than expected.

Check that the cuffs and hem are snug. Ensure the fleece is worn as a mid-layer and that the outer layer is windproof to prevent heat loss.
