The North Face 100 Glacier Full-Zip Fleece - Black - Size 12

The Glacier Full-Zip Fleece provides excellent insulation but is designed primarily as a mid-layer. For very cold weather, we recommend pairing it with a thermal base layer and a waterproof/windproof outer shell for optimal warmth.

This fleece is not waterproof or water-resistant. For protection against rain or heavy moisture, you should wear a waterproof outer shell over the fleece.

Zip-in compatibility means the fleece has specific loops and snaps that allow it to be securely zipped into a compatible outer jacket from The North Face. This creates a versatile 3-in-1 system, allowing you to wear the fleece alone, the outer shell alone, or both combined for maximum warmth and protection.

The North Face sizing generally runs true to size. For the best fit, refer to The North Face's official sizing chart, which provides measurements for chest, waist, and hip to guide your selection.

Yes, The North Face logo is embroidered on the chest. For the Black colorway, it typically features a contrasting embroidered logo (often white) to ensure visibility.

This can happen if fabric softener or detergent residue builds up. Wash the fleece without fabric softener and consider using a specific fleece wash if available. Ensure thorough rinsing.

While anti-pilling treated, aggressive friction or improper washing can still cause some pilling. Ensure you wash it gently, perhaps inside out, and avoid abrasive surfaces during wear. A fabric shaver can carefully remove existing pills.

Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper teeth. If it's stiff, try lubricating the teeth with a small amount of graphite from a pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant. Keep the zipper clean from dirt and debris.

This is common with synthetic fabrics in dry conditions. Try using a humidifier indoors or wearing natural fiber base layers underneath. A light mist of water or an anti-static spray can also help.
