FAQs

What is the primary material of this fleece top?

The top is made from 100% Polyester Symmetry Fleece, weighing 170gsm.

Is this fleece suitable for very cold weather?

It is a lightweight fleece, best suited as a mid-layer for insulation or for milder conditions. For very cold weather, it should be worn in conjunction with warmer layers and a windproof outer shell.

How do I determine the correct size?

Please consult the chest size guide provided: XS: 36.5 in, S: 38 in, M: 40 in, L: 42 in, XL: 44 in, XXL: 48 in, 3XL: 51 in, 4XL: 54 in, 5XL: 57.5 in. Measure around the fullest part of your chest for accuracy.

Does the fleece have a hood?

No, this model features a high-neck design but does not include a hood.

Can this fleece be worn by women?

While designed for men, women may find it suitable depending on desired fit and by consulting the size chart. It is generally considered a unisex item for casual wear if sized appropriately.

How resistant is the fabric to bobbling or pilling?

The fleece has a '1 Side Anti-Pill' finish, which helps to minimize the formation of small balls of fiber on the fabric surface, even after repeated washing and wear.

What are the benefits of the high-neck design?

The high-neck design offers increased warmth by covering more of the neck area, providing better protection against wind and cold.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels stiff after washing.

Ensure you are using a gentle cycle and not overloading the washing machine. Avoid fabric softeners, which can coat fleece fibers. Tumble dry on low heat.

Pilling is appearing on the fabric surface.

While designed with an anti-pill finish, excessive friction or harsh washing can contribute to pilling. Ensure you are washing with similar items and avoid abrasive materials in the wash. Use a fabric shaver for minor pilling.

Zip is difficult to fasten or unfasten.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently pull the fabric away from the zipper. Lubricate the zipper teeth with a small amount of graphite pencil lead or wax if it continues to be stiff.

Garment sizing feels incorrect.

Refer to the specific chest size guide provided (XS: 36.5 in, S: 38 in, M: 40 in, L: 42 in, XL: 44 in, XXL: 48 in, 3XL: 51 in, 4XL: 54 in, 5XL: 57.5 in) before purchasing. Ensure you are measuring correctly around the fullest part of your chest.
