Product Information
Full details
The Columbia Steens Mountain 2.0 Full Zip Fleece Jacket is designed for adult men who need a reliable, lightweight layering piece for cold-weather activities or everyday casual wear.

FAQs
Is this jacket windproof?
No, this is a fleece jacket designed for warmth and breathability. It will not block strong winds, so a windproof outer layer is recommended for windy conditions.
Can I wear this as an outer layer?
Yes, it is excellent as an outer layer in dry, cool weather. It is not waterproof, so it should not be used as a standalone jacket in heavy rain.
How should I wash the Steens Mountain 2.0?
Machine wash in cold water on a gentle cycle, preferably with similar colors, and tumble dry on low heat.
Are the pockets deep enough for a smartphone?
Yes, the zippered side pockets are designed to securely hold standard-sized smartphones and other small essentials.
Does the fleece shrink in the wash?
If washed and dried according to the care label (cool water/low heat), the jacket should maintain its size and shape.
Is the fit true to size?
The jacket features a 'Modern Classic' fit, which is generally true to size and designed to allow room for base layers underneath.
Troubleshooting
Zipper feels stiff or stuck
Check for fabric fibers caught in the zipper track and clear them; you can lightly rub a graphite pencil tip along the teeth to act as a lubricant.
Excessive pilling on the fleece surface
Avoid washing with rough items like denim or velcro; consider using a fabric shaver to gently remove pills if they develop after extended use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This garment requires no setup—it is ready to wear immediately. To ensure longevity, always follow the care label instructions located inside the jacket. Generally, it is recommended to wash the fleece in cold water on a gentle cycle. Avoid using harsh detergents or fabric softeners, as these can degrade the performance fibers of the fleece over time. Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry to prevent excessive pilling. When choosing sizes, note that the fit is a 'Modern Classic,' which accommodates layering; ensure you have enough room to move freely when wearing a base layer underneath.
