FAQs
What is the main benefit of the borg fleece fabric?
The borg fleece fabric is exceptionally soft and provides excellent warmth and insulation, making it comfortable for cooler weather.
Is this fleece suitable for very cold weather?
The fleece provides good insulation and is ideal for layering. For extremely cold conditions, it should be worn as a mid-layer under a waterproof and windproof outer jacket.
How do I ensure the correct size for my child?
It is recommended to consult the brand's sizing chart, which typically provides measurements for chest, waist, and height, to find the best fit.
Can the fleece be worn by both boys and girls?
Yes, this fleece is designed as unisex and is suitable for all children regardless of gender.
What should I do if the fleece gets snagged?
If the fabric snags, try not to pull at it. If it's a minor snag, you might be able to carefully trim any loose threads with scissors. For larger tears, repair may be needed.
Does the recycled polyester content affect the fleece's warmth?
No, the recycled polyester blend maintains the same warmth and softness as virgin polyester while offering an environmentally conscious option.
Troubleshooting
Fleece appears less soft after washing.
Avoid using fabric softener. Wash at a lower temperature and consider air drying instead of tumble drying on high heat.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. If needed, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth.
Garment seems to have shrunk.
Ensure that the garment was washed and dried according to the care instructions, particularly avoiding high heat settings.
