Full details
The North Face Teen Glacier Hoodie is designed for young, active individuals seeking comfort and freedom of movement. Its primary benefit is its soft, high-quality polyester construction that provides warmth without bulk. A potential caveat is that while it's versatile, it may be best suited for casual wear or layering rather than extreme weather conditions. Key features include a comfortable regular fit, a fixed hood, long sleeves with elasticated cuffs, a full zip fastening, and secure side seam pockets.

How should I clean the hoodie?
You can machine wash it cold with like colors and tumble dry on low heat.
Does the hood adjust?

Troubleshooting
Zipper is stuck
Gently try to move the zipper pull back and forth. If fabric is caught, carefully try to free it. Lubricate the zipper teeth with a bit of graphite from a pencil or a wax candle if needed.
Pilling or fuzz on fabric after washing
This can be normal for fleece materials. To minimize, wash inside out, use a gentle cycle, and avoid overloading the washing machine. Consider air drying instead of machine drying.
Elastic cuffs losing elasticity
Avoid high heat drying, as this can degrade elastic over time. Follow the recommended low heat or air dry instructions.
