FAQs

Is this fleece suitable for rainy weather?

The fleece provides warmth but is not waterproof; it is best used as a mid-layer under a waterproof outer shell in wet conditions.

How does the sizing typically run?

The size 6 follows standard children's sizing, but it is recommended to consult a size chart if your child is between sizes.

Can this be tumble dried?

It is best to air dry to maintain the integrity of the fleece texture, though low-heat tumble drying is sometimes acceptable depending on specific care tag instructions.

Is the material breathable?

Yes, the fleece material is designed to offer warmth while allowing for moisture vapor to escape, keeping the child comfortable during activity.

What is the primary material used?

This garment is crafted from high-quality, soft fleece fabric chosen for its heat-retention properties.

Troubleshooting

Press studs are loose or difficult to snap

Check for lint or debris caught inside the socket and clean gently with a soft brush.

Fleece feels less soft after multiple washes

Ensure you are using a fabric conditioner suitable for synthetic materials and avoid over-drying.

Sizing feels too snug around the neck

Verify the press-stud alignment and ensure the inner garment worn underneath is not creating unnecessary bulk.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of the fleece, follow these care instructions:

  1. Washing: Machine wash on a gentle, cool cycle using a mild detergent.
  2. Drying: Air drying is recommended to preserve the softness of the fleece fibers and prevent potential shrinking.
  3. Ironing: Avoid ironing directly on the fleece as high heat can damage the synthetic fibers.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use for extended periods.
  5. Compatibility: This fleece layers easily under a shell or waterproof jacket, making it a highly compatible choice for year-round layering systems.
