National Trust Rawthey Half Zip Fleece - Blue - S

Borg fleece is a type of plush, deep-pile synthetic fleece fabric known for its softness, comfort, and excellent insulating properties, often resembling sheepskin.

The National Trust Collection is a line of apparel designed in partnership with the National Trust, featuring nature-inspired designs that celebrate the landscapes and wildlife protected by the organization.

This fleece is designed primarily for warmth and insulation. It is not waterproof and should be worn with a waterproof outer layer in rainy conditions.

Follow the standard care instructions: wash on a gentle cycle at 30°C and avoid high heat drying or ironing. This will help preserve the vibrancy and integrity of the print.

While marketed for men with a regular fit, women may also wear this fleece. It is recommended to check the sizing chart and consider ordering a size down for a more fitted look.

It is ideal for casual wear, walking, hiking in cool to cold weather, travel, and as a comfortable layer for everyday use.

Ensure the garment is clean, as dirt and oils can impair insulation. Avoid using fabric softeners during washing, as they can coat the fibers. Check for any signs of pilling, which can reduce loft and warmth.

Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. If it remains stiff, apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth. Avoid forcing the zipper, which could cause damage.

Pilling is a common characteristic of fleece. To minimize it, wash the fleece inside out on a gentle cycle with minimal agitation. Use a fabric shaver to carefully remove existing pills if they become noticeable.
