FAQs

Is this pullover suitable for very cold weather?

The Taunus Hz pullover is designed as a lightweight, warm mid-layer. For very cold conditions, it is best used in conjunction with a thermal base layer and a protective outer shell.

How do I know if the XXL size will fit?

We recommend checking the specific size chart provided by Jack Wolfskin for the Taunus Hz line. Measurements for chest, waist, and length are typically available to ensure the best fit.

Can this fleece be worn as an outer layer?

Yes, it can be worn as an outer layer in mild conditions. However, it is most effective as a mid-layer, providing insulation under a windproof or waterproof jacket when needed.

What does 'bluesign certified' mean?

Bluesign certification means the textile was manufactured in a process that uses only those chemicals, and processes that are good to the environment. It minimizes the impact on the local ecosystem, water, and air.

How is the material different from standard fleece?

This fleece is made from recycled materials, making it an eco-friendlier choice. It aims to provide the same warmth and comfort as conventional fleece while reducing waste.

What is the 'Green Button' certification?

The Green Button is a German government seal for sustainable textiles. It certifies that a product meets high standards for both environmental and social responsibility.

Troubleshooting

Fleece pilling after washing

Avoid using fabric softener, wash inside out, and use a gentle cycle. Pilling is a common characteristic of fleece and can be minimized with proper care.

Reduced warmth over time

Ensure you are not using fabric softener, which can coat the fibers and reduce their ability to trap air. Wash according to care instructions.

Zipper is stiff or sticking

Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper. Gently pull the fabric away from the zipper teeth. You can also apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth.
