FAQs

Is this garment suitable for extremely cold weather?

It is best used as a mid-layer in cold weather. For extreme conditions, pair it with an insulated jacket or shell.

Can I put this in the dryer?

Yes, use the lowest heat setting available to prevent heat damage to the synthetic fleece.

Is the fabric waterproof?

No, the fleece is designed for warmth and breathability, not as a waterproof barrier.

Does the fit run large or small?

It follows a standard athletic cut. If you prefer to wear thick base layers underneath, you might consider sizing up.

Can I use this for casual wear?

While designed for athletics, its style is suitable for casual, outdoor-focused environments.

Troubleshooting

Visible lint or pilling on the fleece surface

Avoid washing with abrasive items like towels or denim; use a dedicated fabric shaver if pilling occurs.

Garment feels damp after high-intensity exercise

Ensure you are using a synthetic base layer; avoid cotton layers underneath which trap moisture.

Zipper feels stiff or resistant

Check for loose threads around the zipper track and apply a light touch of graphite or zipper lubricant if necessary.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent moisture-wicking properties for high-output training
  • Adjustable neck opening allows for rapid heat dissipation
  • Reinforced shoulder panels handle friction from backpack straps well
  • Lightweight design prevents fatigue during long workouts

Cons

  • Pattern design may be too bold for some users

  • Fleece material can pill if not washed according to instructions

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This garment is ready for immediate use. For optimal performance, pair it with a moisture-wicking base layer to maximize thermal management. To maintain the integrity of the fleece and the aesthetic finish of the checkered shoulder panels, follow these care instructions: Wash in cold water on a gentle cycle using a mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can coat the synthetic fibers and degrade the garment's moisture-wicking capabilities. Tumble dry on a low heat setting or air dry to prevent shrinkage and maintain the original fit and shape of the athletic cut.
