Full details
The Regatta Frankie women's half-zip fleece is designed for adult females seeking comfortable, lightweight insulation for everyday layering. Its key benefit is providing warmth without bulk, making it ideal for walking, travel, or casual outdoor activities. A minor caveat is its focus on lightweight insulation, which may not be sufficient for extreme cold conditions on its own. This fleece is crafted from a soft, recycled polyester micro fleece blend, featuring a versatile half-zip design, practical zipped pockets, and decorative flat seams for a clean finish.

FAQs
What is the primary material of this fleece?
The Regatta Frankie fleece is made from 70% polyester and 30% recycled polyester micro fleece (210 g/m²).
Is this fleece suitable for very cold weather?
It provides lightweight insulation and is best suited as a layering piece. For very cold weather, it would need to be worn under a warmer, insulated outer layer.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the brand's sizing chart for women's apparel. The product description notes this is a size 12.
Can I wear this for active sports like hiking?
Yes, the breathable nature of fleece and the half-zip design make it suitable for moderate activities like hiking, especially in cooler temperatures.
Are there any pockets on the fleece?
Yes, it features two zipped lower pockets for secure storage.
What does 'STRETCH attachment' mean?
It means there are flexible, stretchy panels incorporated at the collar, centre front, cuffs, and hem to improve fit, comfort, and freedom of movement.
How should I wash the fleece to maintain its quality?
Machine wash at 30°C on a gentle cycle, do not bleach, tumble dry on low heat, and iron on a low setting. Avoid dry cleaning.
Troubleshooting
Fleece feels stiff after washing.
Ensure you are using a gentle cycle and avoiding harsh detergents. A low-heat tumble dry can help restore softness.
Pilling on the fleece fabric.
Pilling is a common characteristic of fleece. To minimize it, wash inside out and avoid abrasive contact with other garments. Consider using a fabric shaver for minor pilling.
Zipper is difficult to move.
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper. Gently try to work the zipper up and down. Applying a small amount of wax or lubricant to the zipper teeth can help.
