Can I put this fleece in the tumble dryer?

Does it contain recycled materials?
Yes, the fabric composition includes 30% recycled polyester.
Is the fit true to size?
The Newhill Fleece is designed with a standard fit, though the stretch-edged hem helps it conform to your body shape for a comfortable feel.
How heavy is the fabric?
The material weight is 280 g/m2, which provides substantial warmth for cooler weather.
Troubleshooting
Pilling on the surface of the fleece
Use a fabric shaver or a dedicated pilling comb to gently remove surface fuzz, and ensure you wash the garment inside out.
Zip feels stiff or sticks
Clear any debris or fabric caught in the teeth and gently rub a graphite pencil tip along the zipper track to lubricate it.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maintain the integrity of the knitted fabric, machine wash the fleece on a gentle cycle using mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can degrade the technical properties of the synthetic fibers. Always air dry the garment away from direct heat sources to prevent shrinkage. The fleece is highly compatible with most standard waterproof jackets or softshells, fitting well beneath them due to its low-profile silhouette. Store in a dry place to prevent moisture buildup within the fibers.
