Full details
The Regatta Kadley men's midlayer is designed for adult males seeking a versatile and comfortable layer for outdoor activities. Its key benefit is providing warmth without bulk, thanks to a smooth, wind-resistant outer face and a soft tech fleece lining. A potential caveat for some users might be its specific material composition, which is 96% polyester and 4% elastane, offering stretch but not full waterproof capabilities. This midlayer is ideal for trail walks, climbing, and post-training wear, featuring a grown-on hood and multiple zipped pockets for practicality.

Troubleshooting
Zippers are stiff or difficult to move.
Gently pull the zipper while holding the fabric taut. If still stiff, use a graphite pencil tip or a small amount of wax along the zipper teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper.
Garment feels too tight or restrictive.
Ensure you have selected the correct size. For greater freedom of movement, consider wearing a lighter base layer underneath or a size up if more room is desired.
Fleece lining feels matted after washing.
Ensure you are using a mild detergent and have avoided high heat during washing and drying. Tumble drying on a low setting with a dryer ball can help restore loft. Avoid ironing the fleece lining.
Pilling on the fabric surface.
Pilling can occur with normal wear and washing of polyester fabrics. Use a fabric shaver to gently remove any pills. Washing inside out can help minimize this.
