FAQs
What is the primary purpose of this fleece jumper?
The primary purpose is to provide warmth and comfort as a mid-layer for casual outdoor activities or everyday wear in cool conditions.
Is this fleece suitable for heavy rain?
No, this fleece is made of polyester microfleece and is not waterproof. It is designed for warmth and breathability, and should be worn with a waterproof outer layer in wet conditions.
How do I choose the correct size?
Refer to the size guide provided, which lists chest measurements for each size. For this specific jumper (L), the chest measurement is 42 inches.
Can I wear this fleece directly against my skin?
Yes, the soft-touch finish makes it comfortable to wear directly against the skin, though it's also commonly worn over a base layer.
How do I clean the fleece to maintain its softness?
Machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water and mild detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Air dry or tumble dry on low heat to preserve the soft texture.
What does '140gsm' mean?
GSM stands for grams per square meter, which is a measure of fabric weight. 140gsm indicates a relatively lightweight but still warm fleece.
Does the funnel neck offer adjustable warmth?
Yes, the half-zip fastening allows you to adjust the opening of the funnel neck for personalized ventilation and warmth.
Troubleshooting
Fleece feels static
Static can occur with synthetic fabrics. Try using a fabric conditioner specifically designed for synthetic materials during washing, or use an anti-static spray.
Pilling after washing
Wash the fleece inside out on a gentle cycle with minimal agitation. Avoid washing with abrasive items like denim or rough towels. Air drying can also help minimize pilling.
Zipper is stiff
Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it remains stiff, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a tiny bit of wax to the zipper teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper mechanism.
