FAQs
What material is the jacket made of?
The jacket is crafted from soft sherpa fleece, designed to provide lightweight warmth and a plush, comfortable feel.
Is this jacket suitable for very cold winter weather?
This jacket is lightweight and ideal for transitional seasons, mild chills, or as a layering piece. For very cold winter weather, it's best worn as an insulating mid-layer under a heavier, more protective outer coat.
How should I wash and care for my sherpa fleece jacket?
It is recommended to machine wash cold on a gentle cycle, inside out. Tumble dry on low heat or air dry. Do not bleach or iron. Always check the garment's care label for specific instructions.
Does the jacket have pockets?
Yes, it features convenient casual side pockets, perfect for keeping your hands warm or storing small essential items.
Can the high neckline be adjusted?
Yes, the cozy high neckline is versatile. It can be worn up for extra warmth and protection against drafts or folded down for a more relaxed and open look.
Is the jacket true to size?
Roman clothing typically follows standard UK sizing. For the best fit, it's recommended to consult Roman's official size guide if available, or compare your measurements to their sizing chart. This specific variant is a Women's UK Size 8.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels less soft or matted after washing.
Ensure you are washing on a gentle cycle with cold water. Avoid high heat during drying; tumble dry on low or air dry. Avoid using fabric softeners as they can sometimes leave residue or change the texture of fleece.
Jacket is attracting a lot of lint or pet hair.
Wash the jacket separately from items that shed lint (like towels). Use a lint roller regularly to remove surface debris. Washing inside out can also help reduce the attraction of lint.
Zipper feels stiff or gets stuck.
Rub a graphite pencil, a bar of soap, or a zipper lubricant along the teeth of the zipper to ease movement. Avoid forcing the zipper, as this can cause damage to the teeth or slider.
Jacket appears to be pilling (small balls of fiber forming).
Pilling can occur with fleece over time due to friction. To minimize this, wash the jacket inside out on a gentle cycle. Use a fabric shaver or a de-piller tool to carefully remove existing pills and restore the smooth appearance.

- Fleece Maintenance: Sherpa fleece can sometimes attract lint or show signs of pilling over time if not cared for properly.

Care Instructions
Proper care will maintain the softness and appearance of your sherpa fleece jacket. Always refer to the care label for specific instructions, but general guidelines for fleece include:
- Machine Wash Cold: Turn the jacket inside out before washing to protect the fleece fibers. Use a gentle cycle with cold water.
- Use Mild Detergent: Avoid harsh detergents or those with bleach, as they can damage fleece fibers.
- Avoid Fabric Softeners: While counter-intuitive for softness, fabric softeners can actually reduce the wicking properties and cause fleece to pill over time. They can also leave a residue on fleece.
- Do Not Bleach: Bleach will damage the material and color.
- Tumble Dry Low or Air Dry: For best results, tumble dry on a low heat setting. Remove promptly to avoid static and excessive heat. Air drying flat or hanging prevents stretching and helps maintain the fleece texture.
- Do Not Iron: The heat from an iron can melt or damage fleece fibers.
- Store Properly: Hang on a padded hanger or fold neatly to prevent creases and maintain shape.
