FAQs
What is the primary material of this fleece top?
The fleece top is made from 100% polyester, specifically a 170gsm fabric.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the sizing chart provided in the product description. It lists UK sizes with corresponding chest measurements (in inches).
Is this fleece suitable for very cold weather?
It provides insulation and is suitable as a layering piece in colder weather. However, it is lightweight and may not be sufficient as standalone outerwear in extreme cold.
Can I machine wash and dry this item?
Yes, it is machine washable at 30°C on a gentle cycle and can be tumble dried on a low heat setting.
What does 'anti-pilling' mean?
Anti-pilling construction means the fabric is treated or manufactured to resist the formation of small balls (pills) on its surface, helping it maintain a smoother appearance over time.
Does the fleece have pockets?
The product description does not mention pockets. This model features a plain design with long sleeves and a quarter zip.
How should I care for the embroidered detail?
Follow the general care instructions. Avoid high heat during washing or drying, and do not iron directly on the embroidery to preserve its quality.
Troubleshooting
Fleece feels stiff or less soft after washing.
Avoid using fabric softener. If stiffness persists, a low-heat tumble dry might help restore softness. Ensure you are using a mild detergent.
Pilling has started to appear.
While designed to be anti-pilling, excessive friction can sometimes cause pilling. Gently remove any pills with a fabric shaver. Ensure washing on a gentle cycle and avoid abrasive materials in the wash.
Zipper is difficult to move.
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it remains stiff, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or wax can be applied to the zipper teeth.

Care Instructions:
To maintain the quality and longevity of your fleece top:
- Washing: Machine wash at 30°C (86°F) on a gentle cycle.
