FAQs
Is this fleece machine washable?
Yes, but it should be washed on a cool, gentle cycle. Always turn it inside out to protect the outer fleece texture.
Does it have a hood?
No, this specific model features a high collar with stretch binding rather than a hood.
Is the material waterproof?
The Frankie Borg fleece is designed for warmth and insulation; it is not waterproof and should be worn under a waterproof shell in rainy conditions.
Does this garment use recycled materials?
Yes, the composition includes a blend of polyester and recycled polyester.
Can I tumble dry the fleece?
It is not recommended to tumble dry. Air drying is the best way to maintain the fleece's soft feel and the integrity of the stretch binding.
What is the best way to layer this item?
Due to its relaxed fit, it works best as a mid-layer over a light base layer or as an outer layer on cool, dry days.
Troubleshooting
Pilling or small lint balls forming on the surface
Use a fabric shaver or a de-pilling comb to gently remove surface fuzz, and try to wash the garment inside out to reduce friction.
Zip appears to stick or feels difficult to operate
Check the track for any trapped fabric or lint; gently clear the area and ensure no threads are caught in the teeth of the zipper.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your fleece maintains its soft texture and structural integrity, always check the garment's internal care label before washing. Generally, it is recommended to wash the garment on a cool, gentle cycle with like colors to prevent color bleeding and fabric stress. Avoid using harsh chemical bleaches or fabric softeners, as these can degrade the synthetic fleece fibers. After washing, hang the fleece to air dry rather than tumble drying, as high heat can shrink the material or damage the stretch binding. The fleece is highly compatible with most casual wardrobes and pairs well with denim, walking trousers, or cargo pants.
