FAQs
Is this fleece windproof?
No, the Barlee fleece is designed for warmth and insulation, not as a windproof barrier. It is best paired with a shell jacket in windy conditions.
Can I tumble dry this garment?
It is recommended to air dry the fleece to prevent material shrinking or damage to the synthetic fibers.
How should I choose the right size?
The Barlee fleece follows standard sizing. If you plan to wear it over multiple thick base layers, consider sizing up for a more relaxed fit.
Does the chest pocket fit a smartphone?
The chest pocket is designed for small essentials like a phone, transit card, or keys, though sizing may vary depending on your device dimensions.
Is the material breathable?
Yes, polyester is a breathable synthetic material, making this fleece suitable for active use without causing overheating.
Troubleshooting
Zipper feels stiff or catches
Ensure no fabric is caught in the track and gently rub a pencil lead or beeswax along the teeth to lubricate them.
Pilling on the exterior fabric
Use a fabric shaver or a sweater stone to gently remove surface fuzz; avoid pulling or tearing at the fibers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your Barlee Fleece in optimal condition, machine wash it in cool water on a gentle cycle. Avoid using heavy fabric softeners, as they can degrade the insulating properties of the polyester fibers over time. For the best longevity, air dry the garment away from direct heat sources. It is fully compatible with standard rain shells and parkas, fitting comfortably beneath most outdoor jackets without adding excessive bulk.
