FAQs
What is the primary material of this jacket?
The jacket is made from 100% Polyester Microfleece.
Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?
No, this jacket is made of fleece and is not waterproof or water-resistant. It is designed for warmth and comfort in dry conditions or as a layer under waterproof outerwear.
How many pockets does the jacket have?
The jacket features two lower pockets, both secured with zips.
Can I wear this jacket in very cold weather?
While it provides good warmth, it is best suited for mild to cool conditions or as a mid-layer in colder temperatures. For extreme cold, additional insulation or a heavier outer layer would be necessary.
How should I wash the fleece jacket?
Machine wash inside out with similar colours using a mild detergent at a maximum of 40°C. Tumble dry on low heat or hang to dry. Do not iron.
What does 'Hardwearing' fabric technology mean?
This indicates that the fabric is designed to be durable and resist wear and tear, making it suitable for frequent use and outdoor activities.
Does the jacket have a hood?
No, this specific model (Hadfield Full Zip Fleece) features a standing collar, not a hood.
Troubleshooting
Fleece pilling after washing
Wash inside out on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid high heat in the dryer. Pilling is a common characteristic of fleece; a fabric shaver can help remove minor pills.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth.
Jacket feels less warm than expected
Check if the fleece is clean, as dirt and oils can reduce insulation. Ensure the cuffs and hem are snug to prevent drafts. Consider layering with additional base layers for colder weather.
Sizing seems incorrect
Refer to the product's size chart, noting the chest measurements provided (M: 40 in.). If between sizes, consider the intended use and desired fit (e.g., for layering, size up).
