FAQs

What is the primary function of the grid fleece?

The grid fleece is designed with a geometric weave that traps air, providing excellent insulation and warmth retention while remaining breathable.

What does '1/4 zip' mean for functionality?

The 1/4 zip allows you to adjust the neckline opening, providing ventilation when you're too warm and a snugger fit to retain heat when you're cold.

Is this fleece suitable as an outer layer in winter?

The Newark 1/4 Zip Grid Fleece is primarily intended as a mid-layer for insulation. For very cold or wet conditions, it would be best worn under a waterproof or windproof outer shell.

How do I care for the metal fish zip pull?

The metal zip pull should be cared for like any metal accessory. Avoid harsh chemicals. If it becomes tarnished, a gentle polish with a soft cloth should suffice.

Are there other colors and sizes available?

Yes, the Newark 1/4 Zip Grid Fleece is available in a range of colors and sizes. Please check the product listings for specific availability.

What is the fit like on this fleece?

Based on the description, it is designed as a layering piece. While specific fit details like 'regular' or 'slim' are not universally stated for all variants, it is generally expected to fit comfortably over a base layer.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels less insulating after washing

Ensure you are using a mild detergent and avoiding fabric softeners, which can reduce the loft and insulating properties of fleece. Always follow the recommended washing temperature and drying instructions.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper track. Gently pull the fabric away. If the zipper remains stiff, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a tiny drop of silicone lubricant applied to the teeth can help.

Pilling on the fleece surface

Pilling is a common occurrence with fleece. To minimize it, wash the garment inside out on a gentle cycle and avoid excessive friction with other abrasive materials in the wash. A fabric shaver can be used to carefully remove pills.
