FAQs

What is the primary material of this fleece top?

The top is made from 100% Polyester Symmetry Fleece, which is known for being lightweight, soft, and having an anti-pill finish.

Is this fleece suitable for very cold weather?

The 170gsm fleece provides moderate warmth and is best suited for cooler conditions or as a mid-layer under more substantial outerwear for colder weather.

How do I find the correct size?

Refer to the size chart provided, which lists chest measurements in inches for each size (S: 38 in., M: 40 in., L: 42 in., XL: 44 in., etc.). Measure your chest and compare to find the best fit.

Can I wear this for high-intensity sports?

While breathable, it is primarily designed for casual wear and moderate outdoor activities. For high-intensity sports, consider base layers designed for moisture-wicking and temperature regulation.

What does '1 Side Anti-Pill' mean?

This means the fabric has been treated on one side to resist the formation of small balls (pills) on the surface, helping the garment maintain a smoother appearance over time.

How should I care for the fleece to maintain its softness?

Machine wash at 40°C with similar colours, use a mild detergent, and avoid fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low or hang dry. Do not iron.

What is the purpose of the high-neck design?

The high neckline is designed to provide extra warmth and protection against wind and cold around the neck area.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels stiff after washing

Ensure you have avoided using fabric softener. Try a low-heat tumble dry cycle, which can sometimes help restore softness.

Zipper is difficult to move

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. A small amount of wax or graphite from a pencil applied to the teeth can help lubricate it.

Garment lost shape after washing

Ensure the garment was washed on a gentle cycle and not overloaded in the washing machine. Lay flat or hang to dry, avoiding excessive stretching.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Lightweight and comfortable for all-day wear.
  • Provides good warmth for its weight.
  • Durable with an anti-pill finish.
  • Versatile for layering or standalone use.
  • Easy to adjust ventilation with the half-zip.

Cons

  • May require careful sizing due to varied fits.
  • The high neck might be too warm in mild conditions for some.
  • Primarily designed for casual or moderate outdoor use, not extreme cold.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This garment requires no setup; it is ready to wear straight out of the packaging.

Compatibility: Designed as a standalone top or a layering piece. It pairs well with t-shirts, base layers, and outerwear like jackets or gilets. Suitable for adult males.

Care Instructions:

  • Washing: Machine washable at 40°C. Wash with similar colours.
  • Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners as they can reduce the fleece's wicking properties.
  • Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang to dry. Avoid direct heat sources.
  • Ironing: Do not iron. If creases occur, a gentle steam may be used on a low setting, away from the fleece surface.
  • Bleaching: Do not bleach.
