Full details

FAQs

What is microfleece?

Microfleece is a very lightweight type of fleece fabric that provides warmth without adding significant weight, making it ideal for layering.

Is this fleece waterproof?

No, the Raso fleece is not waterproof. It is designed to be breathable and warm, typically worn as a mid-layer under a waterproof or water-resistant outer shell.

How do I ensure the best fit with the adjustable hem?

Locate the toggles or drawcords at the hem. Pull them to tighten the fleece around your waist, creating a snug fit to help keep out wind and cold.

Can I wear this as my only layer in cold weather?

While it provides warmth, it is best suited as a mid-layer. For very cold conditions, layering it over a thermal base layer and under a windproof/waterproof jacket will provide optimal protection.

How do I wash and care for the fleece?

Machine wash cold with similar colors. Avoid bleach, and tumble dry on low or air dry. Do not use fabric softeners or iron.

What are the pockets for?

The two front pockets are designed for convenient storage of small items or for keeping your hands warm.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels less warm after washing

Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can coat the fibers and reduce insulation. Wash with a mild detergent and air dry or tumble dry on low.

Fabric pilling despite care

While treated to resist pilling, some minor pilling can occur with heavy abrasion. Ensure the garment is washed inside out and avoid washing with rough items like denim.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use
