Can I store my phone securely in this hoodie?
Yes, the hoodie includes a zipped pocket specifically designed for keeping essentials like your phone, keys, or wallet safe and secure.
What does the 'Ballistic' in the name refer to?
The term 'Ballistic' likely refers to the durable and robust nature of the fleece, suggesting it is built to withstand rigorous outdoor use.
Are there other sizes or colors available?
This guide focuses on the XXL size in Green. Other sizes (M, L, XL) are available in Green. Please check product listings for any other color variations that may exist.
Troubleshooting
Fleece feels stiff after washing
Ensure you are using a mild detergent and avoiding fabric softeners, which can affect fleece texture. Tumble drying on low heat can help restore softness.
Zipper is difficult to use
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it persists, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) applied to the teeth can help lubricate it.
Thumb loops feel restrictive
The thumb loops are designed for a snug fit to keep sleeves in place. If they feel too tight, you can try gently stretching them or simply fold them down and wear the sleeves without using the thumbholes.
