The Regatta Montes Half Zip Microfleece is engineered for active performance, acting as a crucial midlayer. Its 140gsm lightweight microfleece material provides efficient insulation without restricting movement, making it perfect for dynamic activities. For instance, when hiking or running on a crisp morning, the fleece offers immediate warmth. As your activity level increases, the half-zip neck can be pulled down for instant airflow, preventing overheating. This ability to quickly dump heat is a key benefit, allowing you to maintain a comfortable body temperature regardless of exertion. On sunny days when the temperature starts to drop, it serves as an ideal standalone outer layer for light insulation. Its hardwearing nature means it can endure regular use in outdoor environments, while its bulk-free design ensures it layers smoothly under a waterproof or windproof jacket without feeling cumbersome. It's an excellent choice for anyone needing adaptable warmth and breathability in their outdoor wardrobe.
This fleece requires no complex setup; it's ready to wear immediately. Ensure you select the correct size (e.g., UK 12 for women) for optimal comfort and layering. For compatibility, the Regatta Montes Half Zip is designed as a versatile midlayer. It pairs perfectly over a wicking base layer and can be worn comfortably under a waterproof or windproof outer shell for comprehensive protection in adverse weather conditions.
Care Instructions:
Washing: Machine wash warm with similar colors. It is recommended to wash inside out to protect the fleece fibers.
Drying: Tumble dry on a low setting or, ideally, hang dry to preserve material integrity and reduce potential static buildup. Avoid high heat.
Bleach/Ironing: Do not bleach. Do not iron, as high heat can damage the synthetic fibers.
Fabric Softeners: Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can reduce the wicking properties and breathability of fleece over time.
