FAQs

What is the primary purpose of this fleece?

The 100 Glacier 1/4 Zip Fleece is designed as an insulating layer to provide warmth in cool or cold weather, suitable for outdoor activities and casual wear.

What material is the fleece made from?

It is made from 160 G/M, 100% Recycled Polyester microfibre fleece.

How should I wash this fleece?

Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with like colors. Use a mild detergent and tumble dry on low. Do not use bleach, fabric softener, or iron.

Is this fleece waterproof?

No, this fleece is not waterproof. It is designed for insulation and can be layered with a waterproof outer shell for protection against rain and wind.

What does 'anti-pilling' mean?

The anti-pilling treatment helps to prevent the formation of small balls or 'pills' on the fabric's surface, keeping the fleece looking smoother for longer.

Can this fleece be worn by men?

This specific model is listed as an adult women's garment. The North Face offers similar fleece styles designed for men.

How much warmth does this fleece provide?

It provides significant warmth for its weight due to the microfibre fleece construction, making it ideal as a mid-layer in colder conditions or as an outer layer in mild weather.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels rough after washing.

Ensure you are using a mild detergent and avoiding fabric softener. Try washing again with a small amount of white vinegar in the rinse cycle to help restore softness.

Pilling is noticeable on the surface.

While designed to resist pilling, excessive friction can still cause it. Gently remove any pills with a fabric shaver or de-piller. Follow care instructions closely to minimize future pilling.

Zipper is sticking.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper. Gently try to free it. Lubricate the zipper track with a graphite pencil (rubbing the lead along the teeth) or a small amount of lip balm.

Elastic cuffs/hem feel loose.

This is a common sign of wear over time. While not easily repairable at home, ensuring proper washing and drying techniques can help prolong the elasticity.
