FAQs
What is the primary material of this fleece?
The fleece is made from 100% Polyester Symmetry fleece.
Is this fleece suitable for very cold weather?
This is a lightweight fleece, best suited for mild conditions or as a mid-layer in colder weather when combined with other insulating garments.
How do I know which size to order?
Please refer to the detailed sizing information provided in the product description, which includes bust measurements for each UK size.
How should I wash the fleece to maintain its quality?
Machine wash at 40°C, do not bleach, tumble dry on low, and iron on a low setting. Avoid dry cleaning.
Does the fleece have a hood?
No, this model features a high-neckline with a quarter-zip fastening and does not have a hood.
What does 'anti-pill' mean?
'Anti-pill' means the fabric is treated to resist the formation of small balls or 'pills' on the surface, helping the garment look newer for longer.
Can this fleece be worn by men?

Troubleshooting
Fleece feels tight or restrictive.
Ensure you have selected the correct size by consulting the size guide. If between sizes, consider sizing up for a looser fit.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it catches on fabric, carefully pull the fabric away. Avoid forcing the zipper. Occasionally, a small amount of lubricant like graphite from a pencil can help.
Pilling or bobbling on the fabric surface.
While the fleece has an anti-pill finish, excessive friction can sometimes lead to minor pilling. Follow care instructions carefully, wash inside out, and avoid harsh detergents.
Fleece is not warm enough.
This is a lightweight fleece designed for moderate temperatures or as a layering piece. For colder conditions, add a heavier jacket or insulated layer over the top.
