FAQs

What is Symmetry fleece?

Symmetry fleece is a proprietary fabric used by Regatta, known for being lightweight yet warm, breathable, and quick-drying. It often includes anti-pilling properties for durability.

Is this fleece suitable for very cold weather?

The Margot 1/4 zip fleece is best suited for moderate to cool conditions as a mid-layer. For very cold weather, it is recommended to layer it with a warmer base layer and an insulated or waterproof outer jacket.

How do I care for my fleece to prevent pilling?

To minimize pilling, wash the fleece inside out on a gentle cycle with similar colors, avoid fabric softeners, and tumble dry on low heat or air dry. Do not iron.

What does '1/4 zip' mean?

A '1/4 zip' refers to a zipper that extends approximately one-quarter of the way down the front of the garment, typically from the collar. This allows for adjustable ventilation.

Can I wear this fleece for intense physical activity?

The fleece is breathable and suitable for light to moderate physical activities like walking or hiking. For very intense activities where significant sweating is expected, a moisture-wicking base layer might be more appropriate as the primary layer.

What is the material composition of the fleece?

The fleece is made from 70% polyester and 30% recycled polyester, with a weight of 170 g/m².

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels too tight or restrictive.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Check the fit of the stretch binding at the cuffs and hem; it should be snug but not constricting.

Fleece is not providing enough warmth.

This fleece is designed as a mid-layer. For colder conditions, consider layering it over a warmer base layer or wearing a more insulated outer jacket.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently try to move the zipper up and down a few times. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper teeth. If the issue persists, a small amount of wax or lip balm can be applied to the zipper teeth to help it glide more smoothly.

Fleece shows signs of pilling after washing.

While the fleece has an anti-pilling treatment, excessive friction or harsh washing can still cause some pilling. Follow the recommended care instructions carefully, wash inside out, and avoid abrasive materials in the wash.
