FAQs
What is the primary use of this fleece?
The Sweethart fleece is designed as a versatile layering piece for warmth and comfort during outdoor activities like hiking, or for casual everyday wear in cool weather.
How does the 'anti-pill' feature work?
The anti-pill finish is a treatment applied to the fabric that helps prevent small balls of fiber from forming on the surface during washing and wear, keeping the fleece looking newer for longer.
Is this fleece suitable for very cold weather?
It is excellent for moderate cold or as a layer in colder conditions. For extreme cold, it is recommended to wear it under a more insulated outer jacket.
Can I wear this fleece during exercise?
Yes, the fleece is breathable and can be worn during moderate exercise like hiking. For high-intensity activities, you might prefer a more technical moisture-wicking fabric.
What if the size I need is not listed?
Product availability can change. Check the retailer's website for the most current sizing and color options. There are several other sizes available for this model.
How do I ensure the best fit?
Refer to the Regatta sizing chart provided by the retailer. Compare your body measurements to the chart to select the most accurate size. This model is a 'Regular' fit.
Troubleshooting
Fleece feels less soft after washing.
Avoid using fabric softeners during washing and opt for a gentle cycle. Ensure the garment is dried according to care instructions.
Pilling is starting to appear.
Ensure you are washing the fleece inside out and avoiding harsh rubbing against rough surfaces. While it has an anti-pill finish, excessive friction can still cause minor pilling over time.
Zipper is sticking.
Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it continues to stick, a small amount of graphite from a pencil or a bit of wax can be applied to the zipper teeth. Avoid forcing the zipper.
