Product Information

Full details

The Columbia Timber Meadow MTR Half Zip is an ideal layering piece for active women who need reliable warmth on cool, changeable days without the bulk of traditional heavy fleeces. Utilizing the specialized MTR Mountain Thermal Range technology, this garment traps body heat effectively while remaining lightweight and comfortable for daily outdoor activities; however, while it features a silicone finish for light water repellency, it is not a waterproof jacket and should be layered under a shell during heavy rain.

FAQs

Is this fleece windproof?

No, while it is excellent at retaining heat, it is designed for breathability. A windproof shell is recommended for high-wind conditions.

Can I wash this in hot water?

It is strongly advised to wash in cold water to prevent shrinkage and to protect the performance of the MTR fabric fibers.

Is the silicone finish permanent?

The finish will gradually wear off over time due to friction and laundering, but the insulation properties of the MTR fleece will remain intact.

What does MTR stand for?

MTR stands for Mountain Thermal Range, Columbia's proprietary fleece technology designed for lightweight, efficient warmth.

How should I store this fleece?

Store in a cool, dry place. Hanging is fine, but avoid compressing it under heavy items for extended periods to preserve the loft of the fleece.

Troubleshooting

Water repellency seems to be fading

Over time and after multiple washes, the silicone finish may weaken. Washing with a technical gear cleaner can help restore the surface, or consider a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray treatment.

Static buildup in dry conditions

Avoid synthetic-heavy base layers if static is an issue. Using a light spritz of water or an anti-static spray on the inside can neutralize the charge.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Lightweight and breathable design
  • Effective at trapping body heat without bulk
  • Light water repellency handles mist well
  • Adjustable fit helps block cold air
  • Soft texture for comfortable solo wear

Cons

  • Limited protection against heavy downpours
  • Not windproof
  • Requires careful washing to maintain the silicone finish

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This garment requires no setup. To maintain the integrity of the MTR fleece and the water-repellent silicone finish, follow these care instructions:

  1. Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle. Use a mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners, as they can coat the fibers and degrade the performance of the fleece.
  2. Drying: Air drying is recommended to extend the life of the fabric and the silicone finish. If machine drying is necessary, use a low heat setting.
  3. Compatibility: The slim cut is designed to fit under most standard-sized women's shell jackets, raincoats, or parkas without restricting movement or creating unnecessary bunching.
