Product Information
Full details
The Stanley Arizona Zip Through Knitted Fleece is designed for adults needing an extra layer of warmth, particularly for outdoor or on-site work in colder conditions. Its key benefit is providing substantial warmth due to its heavyweight fleece material and practical features like multiple zipped pockets and stretch panels for ease of movement. A potential caveat is its suitability primarily as a layering piece rather than standalone outerwear in extreme weather.

Troubleshooting
Fleece feels too tight or restrictive
Ensure you are wearing appropriate base layers. The stretch panels offer improved fit, but excessive layering may still cause tightness. Consider if the size is correct for your needs.
Zippers are difficult to move
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to pull the fabric away. If the zipper is stiff, a small amount of graphite from a pencil lead rubbed on the teeth can help lubricate it.
Fleece loses its warmth over time
Ensure proper washing and drying methods are followed as per the care instructions. Avoid high heat drying, which can damage the fleece fibers. Regular cleaning also helps maintain loft.
Pilling on the fleece surface
Pilling is a common characteristic of fleece. To minimize it, wash inside out and avoid abrasive materials in the wash. A fabric shaver can be used carefully to remove existing pills.
