FAQs
What material is the Expedition Check Borg Funnel made of?
It is constructed from high-quality fleece, featuring a borg-style lining designed for optimal warmth.
Can I wear this in extreme sub-zero temperatures?
It is an excellent layering piece for mild to cold winter days, but it should be combined with a windproof or waterproof outer shell in extreme conditions.
How do I choose the right size?
The item is available in various sizes from S to XXXL; refer to the standard sizing chart provided by the manufacturer to ensure the best fit.
Does the check pattern fade after many washes?
By following the care instructions—specifically washing on a cool, gentle cycle—you can maintain the vibrancy of the print for a long time.
Is this garment suitable for physical exercise?
While durable, the heavy borg construction is intended for casual warmth and comfort rather than high-intensity athletic performance.
Troubleshooting
Borg material feels matted after washing
Once dry, gently brush the fleece fabric with a soft-bristled garment brush to lift the fibers and restore its loft.
Zip appears to stick or catch
Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track. You can lightly rub the teeth with a graphite pencil to lubricate them if they remain stubborn.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Expedition Check Borg Funnel remains in top condition, follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle with similar colours. Avoid using harsh detergents or fabric softeners that can mat the borg lining.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible. Do not tumble dry, as the heat can compromise the synthetic fleece fibers.
- Storage: Hang the garment on a wide-shouldered hanger to maintain the shape of the funnel neck and shoulders.
- Compatibility: This piece pairs exceptionally well with heavy denim or cargo pants and rugged boots for a complete winter-ready appearance.
