FAQs
Is this vest machine washable?
Yes, the Varde 2.0 Fleece Vest is machine washable. Please refer to the care label for specific temperature and cycle recommendations.
What does bluesign certified mean?
It means the product was manufactured using methods and materials that are safe for the environment, workers, and the end consumer.
Does it have an inside pocket?
The vest features two external hand pockets with YKK zippers; it does not explicitly feature interior security pockets.
Can I wear this under a waterproof jacket?
Absolutely. Its relatively low profile compared to a full down jacket makes it an ideal mid-layer for shell jackets.
Is the material waterproof?
No, the Polartec fleece material is designed for warmth and breathability rather than water resistance.
What is the fit of this vest?
The vest is designed with a regular fit, providing a comfortable, non-restrictive cut that allows for layering underneath.
Troubleshooting
Zipper feels stiff or hard to operate
Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track; you can lightly rub a pencil lead or zipper lubricant on the teeth to restore smoothness.
Pilling on the surface of the fleece
Use a fabric shaver or de-piller tool to gently remove surface fuzz, which is a common occurrence with knit-style polyester fabrics over time.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This vest does not require specific setup. To ensure longevity, follow these care instructions: machine wash the garment in cold water on a gentle cycle. Use a mild detergent and avoid harsh chemicals or bleach. It is recommended to air dry the vest or tumble dry on a low-heat setting. Because it is a regular fit, it layers well over most standard t-shirts or light sweaters without bunching. When pairing with jackets, check that the neck guard does not conflict with the collar of your outer shell.
