FAQs
What is Tech Fleece made of?
The Nike Tech Fleece Full Zip Hoodie is made from a blend of 53% Cotton and 47% Polyester, designed to be lightweight and smooth on both sides for comfort.
Is this hoodie suitable for cold weather?
This hoodie is designed with lightweight fleece, providing warmth without bulk. It is ideal for mild to cool temperatures and for layering, but not intended for extreme cold or heavy snow/rain.
How should I wash my Tech Fleece hoodie?
It is machine washable. For best results, machine wash cold with similar colors on a gentle cycle, use mild detergent, and tumble dry low or lay flat to air dry. Do not bleach or iron.
Does it have pockets?
Yes, it features convenient side pockets and a small zippered pouch on the sleeve for secure storage of small items.
What kind of fit does this hoodie have?
This hoodie features a standard-fit design, offering comfortable room for movement without being overly baggy.
Can I wear this for workouts?
While comfortable, this hoodie is designed more for everyday wear and casual style rather than intense athletic performance. For workouts, dedicated performance wear might be more suitable due to its specific moisture-wicking properties.
Troubleshooting
Fabric appears to be pilling or forming small balls.
Pilling can occur with fleece over time, especially in high-friction areas. To minimize, wash the hoodie inside out on a gentle cycle. If pilling occurs, use a fabric shaver or lint roller to carefully remove the pills.
Hoodie feels stiff or less soft after washing.
This can happen if too much detergent is used or if the hoodie is tumble-dried on high heat. Ensure you use a mild detergent and tumble dry on a low setting or air dry. Consider adding a small amount of fabric softener (though generally not recommended for fleece as it can reduce breathability over time) or a cup of white vinegar to the rinse cycle to help restore softness.
Zipper snags or is difficult to operate.
Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper teeth. Try rubbing a graphite pencil or a small amount of bar soap along the zipper teeth to lubricate it, then gently work the zipper up and down. Avoid forcing the zipper to prevent damage.
Hoodie seems to have shrunk or lost its shape.
Shrinkage is often due to high heat in washing or drying. Always wash in cold water and tumble dry on low or air dry. If minor shrinkage has occurred, gently stretch the damp garment back into shape before drying.

As a garment, this hoodie requires no setup or compatibility checks. Its primary care instructions are straightforward:
Care Instructions:
- Machine Wash: Always machine wash cold with similar colors. Using cold water helps preserve the fabric's integrity and prevents color fading.
- Gentle Cycle: Select a gentle cycle to minimize wear and tear on the fleece fabric and maintain its smooth texture.
- Use Mild Detergent: Avoid harsh detergents or bleach, which can damage the fabric fibers.
- Do Not Bleach: Bleaching can weaken the cotton and polyester fibers and cause discoloration.
- Tumble Dry Low: Tumble dry on a low heat setting, or ideally, lay flat to air dry. High heat can cause shrinking or damage the fleece.
- Do Not Iron: Ironing is generally not recommended for fleece garments as it can melt or flatten the fibers. If necessary, use a very low heat setting with a pressing cloth.
- Do Not Dry Clean: Dry cleaning chemicals can be too harsh for the fabric.
Following these care steps will help maintain the hoodie's comfort, fit, and appearance over time.
