FAQs

What is the primary use for this fleece top?

This fleece top is designed as a versatile mid-layer for outdoor activities like hiking and walking, or as a comfortable casual wear item for cooler weather.

Is this fleece waterproof?

No, this fleece is not waterproof. It is designed for warmth and breathability. For wet conditions, it should be worn with a waterproof outer layer.

How do I know what size to order?

Refer to the size chart provided by the retailer. The product details indicate a UK dress size of 8 and waist size of 32 for this specific variant, but check for a general size guide for measurements.

Can this fleece be worn in very cold winter conditions?

It provides good insulation for moderate cold, but for extreme winter conditions, it is best used as part of a layering system with a warmer insulating layer and a windproof/waterproof outer shell.

What does 'anti-pilling' mean for this product?

Anti-pilling means the fabric is treated to resist the formation of small balls of fiber (pills) on the surface, helping the garment maintain a smoother appearance and feel after repeated use and washing.

Is the embroidered detail durable?

Yes, embroidered details are typically sewn into the fabric and are designed to be durable and withstand normal washing and wear.

What type of neckline does this fleece have?

This fleece features a high-neckline, which provides additional coverage and warmth around the neck.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels rough after washing

Ensure you are using a mild detergent and washing on a low temperature. Avoid fabric softeners, which can degrade fleece fibers over time. Air drying or tumble drying on a low setting is recommended.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it's still stiff, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track.

Fleece loses its shape after wear

Check care label for specific washing instructions. Ensure it's not being over-stretched during washing or drying. Lay flat to dry if possible, especially after washing.
