FAQs
What is the primary material of the Ferna fleece?
The Ferna fleece is primarily made from soft marl polyester fabric, offering comfort and warmth.
Is this fleece suitable for very cold weather?
While it provides warmth as a midlayer, it is best suited for mild to cool conditions or as part of a layering system in colder weather.
Can I wear this fleece for running?
It is suitable for light jogs or warm-up sessions due to its stretch and comfort. For intense running, you might prefer a garment with more technical moisture-wicking properties.
How do I ensure I order the correct size?
Refer to the brand's specific size guide, usually available on their website or the product's retail page, and compare your body measurements.
Does the hood provide full protection?
The grown-on hood offers protection against light wind and drizzle, but it is not waterproof. It's intended for comfort and casual protection rather than heavy weather.
What are the washing instructions?
Machine wash at 30°C with similar colors, using a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and tumble dry on low heat or air dry.
Are there other colors available?
Yes, this style is often available in a range of colors, including Pink and Pale Lilac, among others.
Troubleshooting
Fleece feels less warm after washing
Avoid using fabric softener, as it can clog the fibers and reduce insulation. Wash with a mild detergent and air dry if possible.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper. Gently try to move it back and forth. A small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or wax can sometimes help lubricate the teeth.
Pilling or bobbling of fabric
Pilling is a natural occurrence with knitted fabrics. Gentle washing and avoiding abrasive contact can minimize this. A fabric shaver can be used carefully to remove pills.
