Ridgeline Mens Ballistic Fleece Hoodie - Crew - Green - XL

The hoodie is crafted from Ridgeline's Southern Star 275gsm fleece, known for being lightweight, breathable, warm, and cosy.

No, the hoodie is made from fleece and is not waterproof. It is designed as a warm, breathable mid-layer.

It is recommended to machine wash cold with like colours, and tumble dry low or hang dry. Avoid bleach, ironing, and dry cleaning.

The thumb loops are integrated into the cuffs to keep the sleeves securely in place when you are reaching or moving, helping to keep your wrists and hands warm.

While it offers warmth, it is best suited as a mid-layer under a more protective outer shell in adverse weather conditions, as it is not windproof or waterproof.

There is a large front kangaroo pocket for hand warming or storing small items, and a separate zipped pocket for safely storing valuables like keys or a phone.

Avoid using fabric softeners, which can coat fleece fibers. Gentle washing and air drying can help preserve softness.

Ensure you are using the thumb loops correctly; they are designed for a snug fit to keep sleeves down. If they cause discomfort, they can be ignored and sleeves worn without using them.

Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. If the issue persists, check for any fabric caught in the zipper. A small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or wax can sometimes help lubricate the zipper teeth.
