Product Information
Full details
The Columbia Steens Mountain Full Zip 2.0 Fleece Jacket is designed for adult men who need a reliable, lightweight thermal layer for outdoor activities or casual daily wear. Its primary benefit is the soft MTR filament fleece construction, which provides substantial warmth without unnecessary bulk. A notable caveat is that while it serves as a great insulating layer, it does not provide windproof or waterproof protection on its own, so you may need a shell in harsher weather conditions.

FAQs
Is this jacket windproof?
No, this is a fleece jacket designed for insulation and warmth. It is breathable, which means it will not block strong winds, and it should be worn under a wind-resistant shell in high-wind conditions.
Can I wear this in the rain?
While the polyester material does not absorb water as quickly as cotton, this jacket is not waterproof or water-resistant. It is best used as an under-layer if rain is expected.
How does the sizing run?
This jacket features a modern classic fit, which is designed to be comfortable and active without being overly baggy. If you plan to layer thick sweaters underneath, you may consider your standard size or slightly up.
Are the pockets deep enough for a smartphone?
Yes, the two side security pockets are sized to accommodate most standard-sized smartphones and keys securely thanks to the zippered closures.
Is this machine washable?
Yes, it is machine washable. Please refer to the care label for specific instructions, typically cold water wash and low-heat drying.
Troubleshooting
Zipper feels stiff or catches on fabric
Ensure the internal fabric guard is clear of the zipper track and apply a light touch of silicone lubricant or graphite pencil lead to the teeth if the issue persists.
Fleece appears matted or loses softness
Wash the garment inside out and tumble dry on a low-heat setting with clean tennis balls to help fluff the fibers, and avoid over-drying.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maintain the integrity of the fleece fabric, always wash the jacket in cold water on a gentle cycle. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can coat the synthetic fibers and reduce the moisture-wicking properties and breathability of the material. Tumble dry on a low heat setting, or preferably, air dry to prevent heat damage to the filaments. Because of its classic, non-bulky design, this jacket is highly compatible with almost any shell or rain jacket, allowing you to build a comprehensive layered system based on current weather requirements.
