Troubleshooting

Fleece feels stiff after washing

Ensure you are using a mild detergent and avoiding fabric softeners, which can sometimes affect fleece texture. Tumble dry on low heat or air dry.

Zipper is difficult to move

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to free the fabric. You can also apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or wax to the zipper teeth to help it glide more smoothly.

Shrinkage after washing

Always follow the care label instructions. Wash in cold water and tumble dry on low heat or air dry. Avoid high heat settings.
