FAQs
Is this fleece windproof?
No, this is a breathable microfleece meant to provide warmth; it is not windproof and should be worn under a shell in windy conditions.
Can I wear this while exercising in the rain?
The material is not waterproof and will absorb water. It is best used as a layering piece under a waterproof shell.
Does it shrink in the dryer?
To avoid shrinking, use a low-heat setting or air dry. Excessive heat can damage synthetic fleece fibers.
Is this suitable for summer wear?
It is intended for cool conditions; however, it can be used for warmth during chilly summer mountain evenings.
What is the benefit of bluesign® certification?
It indicates the garment was produced with minimal impact on people and the environment, utilizing safe chemical processes.
Troubleshooting
Pilling on fabric surface
Wash the garment inside out and avoid mixing with abrasive fabrics like denim or items with Velcro to reduce friction.
Zipper feels stiff
Ensure no fabric is caught in the track and clean out any lint or debris from the zipper teeth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This garment requires no setup and is designed to fit true to size. To maintain the integrity of the Polartec® microfleece, wash in cool to lukewarm water on a gentle cycle. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach, as these can degrade the moisture-wicking properties of the synthetic fibers. Air drying is highly recommended to preserve the shape and loft of the fleece, although it can be tumble dried on a low-heat, delicate setting. Always zip the collar before washing to prevent snagging on other items in the machine.
