Troubleshooting
Jacket feels less warm after washing.
Fabric softeners can reduce the loft and insulating properties of fleece. Ensure you are using a mild detergent and avoiding fabric softeners. If pilling has occurred, a fabric shaver can sometimes restore some of the texture.
Zipper is sticking.
Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper teeth. Gently pull the fabric away from the zipper. If it's stiff, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or wax to the teeth.
Jacket is pilling.
Pilling is a common characteristic of fleece. To minimize it, wash the jacket inside out on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent and air dry. A fabric shaver can be used to carefully remove existing pills.
