FAQs

What is the primary material of this fleece?

The fleece is made from 100% polyester, specifically a 170gsm weight, providing a soft-touch and insulated feel.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided, which lists UK sizes and corresponding chest measurements in inches. For this specific product, UK 14 corresponds to a 34-inch chest.

Is this fleece suitable for very cold weather?

The fleece offers light insulation and is best suited as a layering piece for cooler weather or moderate temperatures. For extreme cold, it would be recommended to wear it under a heavier jacket.

Can I tumble dry the fleece?

Yes, you can tumble dry the fleece on a low heat setting according to the care instructions.

What does 'anti-pilling construction' mean?

It means the fabric is treated or manufactured in a way that reduces the likelihood of small balls of fiber forming on the surface, helping the garment maintain a smoother appearance over time.

What is the fit of this fleece?

The fleece has a regular fit, designed for comfortable layering without being too tight or too loose.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels stiff after washing

Ensure you are using a mild detergent and tumble dry on a low heat setting as recommended. Avoid harsh chemicals or high heat.

Zipper is difficult to use

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper. Gently pull the fabric away and try the zipper again. Lubricating the zipper teeth with a graphite pencil lead can sometimes help.

Pilling has started to appear

While the fleece has anti-pilling construction, excessive friction or washing with abrasive items can still cause pilling. Follow care instructions carefully and consider washing with similar soft fabrics.
