FAQs
Is the material breathable?
The fleece material is designed for warmth; while it allows for some airflow through the full-zip, it is best suited for moderate to cool temperatures.
Can this hoodie be worn for heavy sports?
It is better suited for warm-ups, cool-downs, or casual athletic wear rather than high-intensity cardiovascular activities where moisture-wicking synthetic fabrics are preferred.
How should I store this hoodie?
It is best stored hung on a wide hanger to maintain the shape of the shoulders, or folded neatly in a cool, dry area.
Does the size fit true to expectation?
The adidas Essentials line generally follows standard sizing, but check the specific size chart provided for your region to ensure a comfortable fit.
Are the pockets deep enough for a smartphone?
The side pockets are designed for standard daily use and are generally deep enough to hold keys or a smartphone securely while walking.
Troubleshooting
Zipper sticks or does not slide smoothly
Ensure no fabric is caught in the teeth; you can gently rub a graphite pencil tip along the zipper teeth to act as a dry lubricant.
Fleece appears pilled or rough after washing
Turn the garment inside out before washing and avoid using heavy detergents or fabric softeners that can coat the fibers.
