Troubleshooting
Zipper feels stiff or gets stuck
Ensure no fabric is caught in the teeth and clean any debris from the zipper track using a soft brush.
Fleece feels less soft after multiple washes
Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can coat the fibers and reduce the natural moisture-wicking and thermal properties of Polartec fleece.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your jacket in peak condition, follow these care guidelines: Machine wash the garment at 40°C on a gentle cycle. Always ensure all zips are closed before placing the jacket in the machine to prevent damage to the fleece fibers. Wash dark colors separately to avoid color bleeding. It is critical to avoid bleaching, tumble drying, ironing, or dry cleaning, as these processes can degrade the specialized Polartec material. When storing, ensure the jacket is fully dry to prevent odors.
