Troubleshooting
Fleece feels less warm after washing
Ensure you have avoided using fabric softeners, which can flatten the fleece fibers and reduce insulation. Wash again with a mild detergent only.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to use
Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it remains stiff, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper.
Pilling or bobbling on the fabric surface
Pilling is a common occurrence with knitted fabrics. You can gently remove small pills with a fabric shaver. Avoid abrasive contact with rough surfaces to minimize future pilling.
