FAQs

What is Symmetry fleece?

Symmetry fleece is a type of polyester fleece fabric known for its softness, warmth, and lightweight properties. It's designed to be comfortable against the skin and provide good insulation.

Is this fleece suitable for very cold weather?

This fleece is best described as a mid-layer. It provides warmth and comfort, but for very cold or harsh weather, it should be worn in conjunction with an insulating outer layer.

What does 'recycled polyester' mean in the material composition?

It means that part of the polyester fabric used to make the fleece has been derived from recycled materials, such as plastic bottles, contributing to a more sustainable manufacturing process.

How do I ensure I order the correct size?

Refer to the brand's specific size chart for children's clothing. It is usually based on age and height measurements. For this fleece, the size is listed as UK children's size 7-8.

Can this fleece be worn by boys or girls?

While this specific listing mentions 'Female' in the attributes, the general product line is often unisex. Check the specific color and pattern to determine suitability for your child.

How should I wash this fleece?

The fleece is machine washable at 40°C. For best results and to maintain the fabric's softness, tumble dry on a low heat setting and avoid bleach or dry cleaning.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels rough after washing

Ensure you are using a mild detergent and have followed the low heat tumble dry instructions. Avoid fabric softeners, which can sometimes affect fleece texture.

Zipper is difficult to move

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. A small amount of graphite from a pencil tip rubbed on the teeth can sometimes help.

Shrinking after washing

Always follow the care label instructions precisely. Ensure the tumble dryer is set to a low heat or use air drying to prevent shrinkage.
