Product Information
Full details
The Craghoppers Miska VI Half-Zip Fleece is designed for outdoor enthusiasts and hikers who need a reliable, insulating mid-layer for varying weather conditions. Its key benefit is a soft, velvet-touch microfleece construction that offers warmth without bulk, making it an essential year-round wardrobe staple. While it excels at temperature regulation and comfort, users should note that as a fleece, it is not inherently waterproof and performs best when layered under a protective shell during heavy rain.

FAQs
Is this fleece windproof?
No, the fleece is breathable but does not offer full wind protection. It is recommended to wear a windproof shell over it in gusty conditions.
Can I put this in the tumble dryer?
It is highly recommended to air dry the fleece to prevent heat damage and shrinking of the polyester microfleece.
Is this suitable for summer hiking?
It works well for early morning or evening hikes in the summer when temperatures cool down, though it may be too warm for peak midday heat.
Does it have pockets?
The standard Miska VI design focuses on a clean silhouette and typically does not feature external storage pockets.
What is the sizing like?
The fit is designed to be a regular, comfortable fit suitable for layering. It is best to stick to your standard UK dress size.
Troubleshooting
Fabric appears to be pilling after several uses.
Wash the garment inside out and avoid mixing with rough fabrics like denim; use a fabric shaver to gently remove existing pills.
Zip feels stiff or sticks.
Ensure no fabric is caught in the track; clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush to remove dust or debris.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because this is a pull-on garment, no complex setup is required. For the best performance, pair this fleece with moisture-wicking base layers to keep your skin dry, and always use a weather-resistant outer layer if heading into damp or windy environments. To maintain the velvet-touch texture, wash the garment in cold water on a gentle cycle. Use a mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners, as these can interfere with the moisture-wicking properties of the polyester fibers. Always air dry the fleece away from direct sunlight to preserve the fabric's integrity and prevent shrinkage.
