Product Information

Full details

This guide is for adult women seeking a versatile and warm layering piece for outdoor activities or casual wear. The key benefit is its soft, insulating microfibre fleece that provides reliable warmth. A caveat is that it's designed as a mid-layer, so may require an additional outer shell in very cold or wet conditions. The 100 Glacier 1/4 Zip Fleece is constructed from 100% recycled polyester microfleece, featuring a 1/4 zip for adjustable ventilation, elasticated cuffs and hem for a snug fit, and an embroidered logo for a touch of branding.

FAQs

What is the primary use of this fleece?

The 100 Glacier 1/4 Zip Fleece is primarily designed as an insulating mid-layer for warmth during outdoor activities or as a comfortable casual wear option.

Is this fleece waterproof?

No, this fleece is not waterproof. It is designed to provide warmth and breathability, but for protection against rain or snow, it should be worn under a waterproof outer layer.

What materials is the fleece made from?

It is made from 100% recycled polyester microfibre fleece.

How do I adjust the fit?

The fleece features elastic binding adjustment along the hem and sleeve cuffs for a secure and personalized fit.

Can this fleece be worn by men?

This specific product description and sizing (XS) indicate it is designed for women. The North Face offers similar fleece styles in men's specific fits and sizing.

How should I clean the fleece to maintain its quality?

Machine wash cold with like colors, use a mild detergent, and tumble dry low or hang dry. Avoid bleach, ironing, and fabric softeners to preserve the fabric's properties.

What does '1/4 Zip' mean?

A 1/4 Zip refers to a zipper that extends about one-quarter of the way down the front of the garment, allowing for adjustable ventilation.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels less warm after washing

Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can coat the fibers and reduce insulation. Wash with a mild detergent and tumble dry on low heat or air dry.

Zipper is difficult to pull

Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper. Gently pull the zipper while holding the fabric taut. A small amount of graphite from a pencil on the zipper teeth can also help.

Static cling is noticeable

Use a dryer sheet on a low setting for a few minutes during the drying cycle, or apply a fabric anti-static spray. Ensure the garment is fully dry before storing.
