FAQs
What is Macaroni fabric?
Macaroni fabric is a signature Weird Fish material known for its unique, textured knit that offers a comfortable, warm, and durable feel. In this eco version, it includes organic cotton and recycled polyester.
Is this hoodie suitable for winter?
The Chicoa Full Zip Eco Macaroni Hoodie is ideal for transitional seasons like spring and autumn, and cooler summer evenings. For very cold winter conditions, it's best used as a mid-layer under a heavier, insulated jacket.
What are the eco-friendly aspects of this hoodie?
This hoodie is made with a fabric mix that includes organic cotton and recycled polyester, reducing its environmental impact compared to conventional materials. It represents a step forward in Weird Fish's commitment to sustainability.
How do I care for my Macaroni Hoodie?
Info needed: Always refer to the care label inside the garment for specific washing and drying instructions. Generally, machine wash cold with similar colors and lay flat to dry to maintain its shape and fabric integrity.
Does it have pockets?
Yes, the Chicoa Full Zip Eco Macaroni Hoodie features two practical hand slip pockets, perfect for keeping your hands warm or storing small essentials.
What does 'full zip' mean?
A 'full zip' design means the zipper extends from the bottom hem of the garment all the way up to the collar, allowing you to fully open or close the hoodie for adjustable comfort and style.
Troubleshooting
Zipper feels stiff or is sticking.
Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper teeth. Apply a small amount of zipper lubricant (like a graphite pencil or beeswax) to the teeth and gently work the zipper up and down.
Fabric appears to be pilling (small balls of fiber).
Pilling can occur with wear. Gently remove pills using a fabric shaver or a lint brush designed for pilling. Washing inside out and avoiding harsh abrasion can help reduce future pilling.
Hoodie doesn't feel as warm as expected.
The Macaroni Hoodie is designed for transitional weather and as a layering piece. For colder conditions, consider layering it over a warmer base layer or under a heavy coat. Ensure the zip is fully closed to trap warmth.
Color appears faded after washing.
Info needed: Check care label for specific washing instructions. Always wash with similar colors, use cold water, and a gentle detergent to help preserve color. Avoid direct prolonged sunlight when drying.
