Full details

Its key benefit is providing a lightweight, water-repellent layer with a comfortable stretch fleece feel.

FAQs

What is the primary material of this fleece top?

The top is crafted from a blend of 88% Cationic Dyeable Polyester and 12% Polyester, providing a stretch fleece feel.

Is this top suitable for heavy rain?

The top features water-repellent technology, which is effective against light moisture or showers. It is not designed to be a fully waterproof garment for heavy rain.

How should I wash this fleece top?

Machine wash cold with like colors and tumble dry on low heat. Avoid bleach and ironing.

What does 'Cationic Dyeable Polyester' mean?

This refers to a type of polyester fiber that can be dyed with cationic dyes, often resulting in richer colors and improved dye uptake compared to standard polyester.

Can this be worn as a base layer?

While it can be worn on its own or as a mid-layer, its fleece construction might be warmer than a typical thin base layer for very high-intensity activities where maximum breathability is needed.

Does the funnel neck provide full coverage?

The funnel neck offers partial coverage. The quarter-zip design allows for adjustability, but it does not fully enclose the neck like a traditional mock neck or turtleneck.

What other colors and sizes are available?

This specific product is a Black, Size M. Other color and size variations are available under the Under Armour Mens Quarter Zip Fleece Top product line.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels stiff after washing

Ensure you are using a mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners, which can clog the fibers of fleece. Tumble dry on low heat.

Water-repellent finish seems reduced

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish can wear off over time. Consider reapplying a DWR treatment specifically designed for apparel after several washes, following product instructions.

Zipper is difficult to move

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. If it persists, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a silicone-based lubricant can be applied sparingly to the teeth.
