FAQs

Is this fleece windproof?

While the MTR fleece offers some protection against wind, it is not fully windproof. It is best used as part of a layering system in windy conditions.

Does it have any pockets?

No, this specific model features a sleek, minimalist design without pockets.

Can I wear this under a rain jacket?

Yes, its low-profile construction makes it an excellent choice for layering under a technical shell.

How should I wash it?

Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with like colors. Do not use fabric softener or bleach.

Is the material stretchy?

The polyester fleece offers natural flexibility, providing a comfortable range of motion for outdoor activities.

Troubleshooting

Water repellency seems to be fading

The durable water repellent (DWR) finish can wear off over time. You can revitalize it by washing the garment and applying a specialized spray-on DWR treatment designed for fleece.

Fleece feels matted or less fluffy

Avoid high heat in the dryer and fabric softeners. If it becomes matted, air drying or a very brief, low-heat tumble can help restore the loft of the fleece.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent thermal regulation thanks to MTR fleece
  • Lightweight feel without sacrificing warmth
  • Water-repellent finish helps in light rain
  • Highly versatile as a mid-layer or light outer layer
  • Customizable fit with adjustable drawcord hem

Cons

  • Not intended for heavy, prolonged rain exposure
  • Half-zip design may be less convenient than a full-zip for some users
  • Limited storage as it lacks pockets

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For optimal thermal performance, wear the Timber Meadow Fleece over a moisture-wicking synthetic or merino wool base layer to ensure sweat is moved away from the skin. To care for your garment, machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with similar colors. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can degrade the silicone-encapsulated finish. Tumble dry on a low setting or, preferably, hang to dry to maintain the integrity of the fleece fibers and the water-repellent treatment over time. Ensure the drawcord is loosened before washing to prevent snagging.
