FAQs
What is the primary material of the Newark 1/4 Zip Grid Fleece?
The primary material is fleece, specifically a grid fleece designed for warmth.
Is this fleece suitable for very cold weather?
It is designed for warmth and is an excellent mid-layer. For very cold weather, it should be worn in conjunction with other insulating layers and a protective outer shell.
How do I know if the size will fit me?
Refer to the brand's sizing chart for specific measurements. The fit is generally regular, but personal preference for layering room may influence your choice.
Can I machine wash this fleece?
Yes, it can be machine washed cold with like colors on a gentle cycle. Avoid fabric softeners and high heat drying.
What does 'grid fleece' mean?
Grid fleece refers to a type of fleece fabric that has a grid-like pattern woven into it. This structure helps to trap air for better insulation and can also improve breathability and moisture-wicking compared to smooth fleece.
Are there other colors available?

What is the 'metal fish zip pull'?
This is a distinctive decorative pull tab attached to the main zipper, featuring the Weird Fish brand's fish logo.
Troubleshooting
Fleece feels less warm over time
Fabric softeners and excessive heat can reduce fleece effectiveness. Ensure you are using a mild detergent and avoiding fabric softeners and high heat drying.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Ensure the fabric around the zipper is clear. Gently try to work the zipper up and down. If it persists, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) applied to the teeth can help lubricate it.
Pilling or shedding of fabric
Pilling is natural for fleece over time. To minimize, wash inside out on a gentle cycle and avoid abrasion with rough surfaces. For minor shedding, a lint roller can be effective.
