FAQs

What material is the fleece made from?

The North Face 100 Glacier Cropped Quarter Zip Fleece is crafted from 100% recycled polyester, making it an environmentally conscious choice.

Is this fleece warm enough for winter?

This fleece provides lightweight warmth, making it suitable for layering in cooler conditions or as a standalone piece during mild weather and casual indoor use. For harsh winter conditions, it's best worn as a mid-layer under a heavier coat.

How do I properly care for my fleece?

Always refer to the specific care instructions printed on the product label inside your fleece. Generally, fleece benefits from being washed in cold water on a gentle cycle, avoiding bleach, and either air drying or tumble drying on low heat to maintain its softness and shape.

What does the 'cropped' fit mean?

The 'cropped' fit indicates that the fleece has a shorter length, typically ending around the waist. This modern silhouette is designed for a relaxed look and pairs well with high-waisted bottoms.

Is this fleece suitable for intense hiking or sports?

While durable and comfortable, this fleece is primarily designed for casual days out, evening walks, and everyday wear. For high-intensity sports or extreme outdoor conditions, The North Face offers more specialized technical apparel.

Does this fleece have pockets?

The product description does not specify the inclusion of pockets. Please refer to product imagery or further product details for confirmation on pocket presence.

Troubleshooting

Pilling or excessive fuzz appears on the fabric.

Ensure you are washing the fleece according to the product label's instructions, typically using cold water and avoiding harsh detergents. Consider washing inside out and air drying to minimize friction.

Zipper feels stiff or snags.

Clean any lint or debris from the zipper teeth. If it continues, gently rub a graphite pencil or a small amount of zipper lubricant along the teeth to ease movement.

Fleece loses its softness or warmth after washing.

Over-drying or using high heat can damage fleece fibers. Always follow label care instructions, often recommending low heat tumble dry or air drying. Avoid fabric softeners as they can sometimes reduce fleece's wicking properties.
