FAQs

Is this fleece waterproof?

No, the Expedition Check Borg Funnel is designed for warmth and comfort, not as a waterproof outer layer.

What material is this made from?

It is constructed from high-quality, insulating fleece material, often referred to as borg or sherpa fleece.

Can I wear this as a winter jacket?

It is excellent for chilly weather, but in extreme freezing conditions, it functions best when layered under a windproof or waterproof jacket.

Does the sizing run true to size?

Yes, it follows standard generic sizing. If you prefer to wear thick layers underneath, you might consider sizing up.

How do I deal with pilling?

Minor pilling is common with fleece fabrics. You can use a fabric shaver or a garment comb to gently remove pills and restore the surface.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels less soft after washing

This is often caused by soap residue or fabric softener. Ensure you are using a mild detergent and consider an extra rinse cycle.

Zipper feels stiff

Gently run a graphite pencil lead along the teeth of the zipper to act as a lubricant, or ensure no fabric is caught in the track.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Warm and insulating fleece fabric perfect for cold weather
  • Unique and eye-catching check print design
  • High funnel neck provides excellent wind protection
  • Practical zipped pockets for secure storage
  • Durable construction with contrasting bound trims

Cons

  • Borg material can lose softness if not washed correctly

  • Requires careful temperature control during laundry cycles

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Expedition Check Borg Funnel remains in peak condition, follow these care guidelines:

  • Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle at a low temperature to prevent the fleece fibers from matting.
  • Detergent: Use a mild detergent and avoid using fabric softeners, which can coat the synthetic fibers and reduce breathability.
  • Drying: Air dry whenever possible. Do not tumble dry, as the high heat can damage the texture of the borg fabric.
  • Storage: Store on a wide-shouldered hanger to maintain the structure of the neck and shoulders.
  • Compatibility: This garment is designed for adult males and is available in sizes S through XXXL to accommodate various body types.
