FAQs

Is this bodywarmer windproof?

No, the borg fleece is a breathable fabric and does not provide a windproof barrier.

Can I wear this under a waterproof jacket?

Yes, its low-bulk design makes it an excellent mid-layer to wear underneath a waterproof shell.

Does it have an internal pocket?

No, it features one zipped chest pocket and two external lower zipped pockets.

Is the material stretchy?

The body is standard fleece, while the collar, armholes, and hem feature stretch binding for a secure fit.

What is the best way to store it?

Store it on a sturdy hanger to maintain its shape, away from direct sunlight.

Troubleshooting

Fleece appears matted or clumped after washing

Use a soft garment brush to gently groom the fleece fibers while damp or after air drying to restore loft.

Zip feels stiff or sticks

Ensure no fleece fibers are caught in the teeth and run a graphite pencil tip along the zip track to lubricate it.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent core insulation for chilly days
  • Lightweight feel with no sleeve bulk
  • Three secure zipped pockets for storage
  • Stretch trims prevent heat loss around openings

Cons

  • Not windproof or water-resistant
  • Provides no protection for the arms
  • Open-knit material may snag on sharp objects

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep your bodywarmer in top condition, machine wash it on a cool cycle using mild detergent, ideally inside a laundry bag to protect the borg fleece from pulling. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can degrade the insulating properties of synthetic fleece. Air drying is highly recommended to maintain the texture of the fleece; avoid high-heat tumble drying, which can cause the material to matte. Due to its standard fit, it is compatible with most standard base layers, though it works best when worn over lighter, non-bulky fabrics.
