FAQs

What is 'macaroni fabric'?

Macaroni fabric is a unique, textured knit developed by Weird Fish, known for its distinctive feel, exceptional durability, and characteristic of becoming softer and more comfortable with every wear and wash.

Is this hoodie suitable for cold winter weather?

While warm, this hoodie is best suited for transitional seasons like spring and autumn, or as a layering piece under a heavier coat in mild winter conditions. It acts as a great jacket alternative on cooler days.

How should I wash my Chicoa Macaroni Hoodie?

You can machine wash this hoodie. For best results and to maintain fabric quality, we recommend washing in cold water on a gentle cycle with similar colors. Info needed: [Specific drying instructions].

Will the hoodie shrink after washing?

The macaroni fabric is designed for durability and stability. Following the recommended washing instructions, particularly using cold water and avoiding high heat in drying, will help minimize any potential shrinkage.

What does 'Made with recycled polyester' mean for the material?

This indicates that part of the fabric's composition includes polyester fibers sourced from recycled materials. For this specific hoodie variant, the primary material is cotton, making it a blend that incorporates recycled components for environmental benefit.

Are the pockets zippered?

No, the Chicoa Full Zip Macaroni Hoodie features two open hand slip pockets for easy access and comfort.

Is this hoodie true to size?

The hoodie is designed according to standard UK women's sizing. For the best fit, we recommend consulting the specific size chart provided by Weird Fish, if available, or comparing it to a similar garment you own.

Troubleshooting

Fabric doesn't feel soft enough on first wear.

The unique macaroni fabric is designed to soften and become more relaxed with each wash and wear. Give it a few cycles; its comfort improves over time.

Zipper feels stiff or snags occasionally.

Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper teeth. Occasionally, rubbing a graphite pencil or a small amount of zipper lubricant along the teeth can help smooth its operation.

Color appears to be fading after washing.

Always wash in cold water on a gentle cycle and with similar colors. Using a mild detergent and avoiding harsh chemicals like bleach will help preserve the color.

Hoodie feels too bulky when worn under a jacket.

This hoodie is designed to be a substantial layering piece or a jacket alternative for transitional weather. For very slim-fitting outer layers, it might feel bulky. Consider it a primary outer layer on milder days.

Pros and Cons

Cons

  • Specific material composition (e.g., exact cotton to recycled polyester ratio) may require further clarification.
  • May not provide sufficient warmth for very cold conditions or be too heavy for hot weather.

Care Instructions

To ensure your hoodie maintains its quality and comfort for years to come, follow these care guidelines:

  • Machine Wash: The hoodie is suitable for machine washing. While specific temperature isn't provided, generally washing in cold or warm water on a gentle cycle is recommended for fabric longevity and to preserve the print on the hood lining and cuffs.
  • Drying: Info needed: [Specific drying instructions, e.g., tumble dry low, lay flat to dry]. To prevent potential shrinkage or damage, air drying or tumble drying on a very low heat setting is often best for cotton/polyester blends.
  • Ironing: Info needed: [Ironing instructions, if any]. Generally, iron on a low setting if needed, avoiding direct contact with any printed areas.
  • Bleaching: Avoid using bleach, as it can damage the fabric and cause color fading.
