FAQs
What is the primary material of this fleece top?
The top is made from 100% Polyester fabric.
How should I determine the correct size?
Refer to the 'Size Guide' provided in the product description. It lists chest measurements (in inches) for each UK size. Measure your chest circumference and compare it to the chart for the best fit.
Is this fleece suitable for very cold weather?
It is designed to be insulated and lightweight, offering good warmth for moderate to cool conditions. For extreme cold, it is best used as a layering piece under a heavier jacket.
Can I wear this fleece for high-intensity activities?
It's best suited for light to moderate activities. While it offers some breathability, 100% polyester may not be as breathable as specialized performance fabrics for very strenuous exercise.
Does the fleece have pockets?
The product description does not specify pockets for this particular model. It features a quarter-zip fastening and embroidered detail.
How do I wash the fleece top to prevent damage?
Machine wash at 40°C on a gentle cycle. Avoid bleach and do not iron. Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry. Wash with similar colors.
What does 'Anti-Pilling' mean?
Anti-pilling means the fabric is treated to resist the formation of small balls (pills) on the surface, helping the garment look newer for longer.
Troubleshooting
Fleece feels stiff after washing
Ensure you are using a gentle cycle and low heat for tumble drying. Avoid harsh detergents. Consider using a fabric softener designed for synthetic materials if needed.
Pilling developing on the surface
While the fleece is anti-pilling, excessive friction (e.g., from backpack straps) can sometimes cause minor pilling. Gentle washing and avoiding abrasive contact can help minimize this.
Zipper is difficult to move
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper track. Gently try to ease the zipper up and down. Lubricating the zipper teeth with a graphite pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant can help.
