FAQs
Is this fleece suitable for extreme winter weather?
It serves best as a versatile mid-layer. In extremely cold conditions, it should be worn under a heavier windproof or waterproof outer jacket.
Can I put this fleece in the tumble dryer?
No, tumble drying is not recommended as it may cause the wool to shrink or lose its structural integrity.
What is the best way to store the fleece?
Fold the fleece and store it in a cool, dry place. Hanging for long periods can cause the shoulders to stretch.
Is the zip pocket large enough for a modern smartphone?
The chest pocket is designed for small essentials such as keys, cards, or a slim wallet; most modern smartphones may be too large.
Does the fleece fit true to size?
The fleece is designed with a standard fit. If you intend to wear heavy layers underneath, you may prefer a slightly roomier fit.
Troubleshooting
Pilling on the surface of the fleece
Gently use a fabric shaver or a sweater stone to remove surface fuzz, taking care not to pull on the natural wool fibers.
Stiffness after washing
Ensure you are using a wool-specific conditioner or detergent during the wash, and always lay the garment flat to dry to avoid stretching.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Casablanca Polar Fleece, it is important to follow professional care guidelines. Given the wool material, hand washing in cold water or using a specialized delicate cycle with a wool-safe detergent is highly recommended. Avoid machine drying, as excessive heat can shrink or felt the fabric; instead, lay the garment flat to dry away from direct sunlight to maintain its shape and colour. This fleece pairs well with both denim and technical trousers, making it a versatile addition to any wardrobe.
