Product Information
Full details
The DLX Sebastian 1/2 Zip Neck Fleece is a versatile mid-layer designed for adult men who need a reliable, lightweight garment for both outdoor adventures and casual daily wear. Its standout feature is the half-zip neck, which allows for effortless temperature regulation during changing conditions; however, users should note that the regular fit design is intended for layering and may feel looser than performance-specific athletic apparel.

FAQs
Is this fleece windproof?
No, it is designed for warmth and breathability; you should wear a windproof shell over it in gusty conditions.
Can I wear this as a base layer?
While it is a mid-layer, the regular fit allows for a thin thermal base layer to be worn underneath it.
Does the polyester material shrink in the wash?
Polyester is generally resistant to shrinking, but you should always follow the care instructions and avoid high-heat drying.
Are the pockets deep enough for a modern smartphone?
The zip pockets are designed for standard everyday items; most modern smartphones will fit securely within them.
How do I choose the right size?
The garment follows a regular fit; if you plan to wear thick layers underneath, consider your standard size, otherwise, you may find it fits true to your usual measurements.
Troubleshooting
Zipper feels stiff or difficult to pull
Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper teeth and consider running a graphite pencil tip along the track to lubricate it.
Fleece appears to be losing its soft texture
Wash the garment inside out and avoid mixing with abrasive fabrics like denim, which can cause pilling.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This garment is designed for immediate use. For optimal performance, ensure the size selected allows for adequate layering underneath, such as a base layer or a t-shirt.
Care Instructions:
- Machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle to preserve the fleece texture.
- Avoid using harsh fabric softeners which can clog the fibers and reduce moisture-wicking properties.
- Line dry whenever possible to save energy and extend the longevity of the zipper components.
- If using a dryer, select the lowest heat setting to prevent material degradation.
