Product Information

Full details

The North Face 100 Glacier 1/4 Zip Fleece is designed for adult women seeking an insulating layer for cool weather. Its key benefit is providing reliable warmth through its soft microfibre fleece construction. A minor consideration is that it functions best as a mid-layer rather than a standalone outer shell in harsh conditions. This fleece offers essential warmth with a comfortable feel, featuring a 1/4 zip for adjustable ventilation and anti-pilling treatment for durability.

FAQs

What is the primary purpose of the 100 Glacier 1/4 Zip Fleece?

Its primary purpose is to provide an insulating layer of warmth, making it ideal for layering in cooler weather conditions.

Is this fleece waterproof?

No, this fleece is not waterproof. It is designed to be breathable and insulating, and should be paired with a waterproof outer layer in wet conditions.

What material is the fleece made from?

The fleece is made from 100% recycled polyester knit fleece.

How should I clean the fleece to maintain its quality?

Machine wash cold with like colors, use non-chlorine bleach if needed, and tumble dry low. Avoid ironing and dry cleaning.

What does 'anti-pilling' mean for this product?

The 'anti-pilling' treatment means the fabric is designed to resist the formation of small balls (pills) on its surface, helping the fleece maintain a smoother appearance over time.

Can this fleece be worn as an outer layer?

It can be worn as an outer layer in mild, dry conditions. However, it is most effective and versatile when used as a mid-layer under a windproof or waterproof jacket.

What sizes are available?

The fleece is available in sizes ranging from XS to XL.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels less warm than expected

Ensure the fleece is properly layered. For maximum warmth, wear it over a base layer and consider adding an outer shell in windy or colder conditions. Check that cuffs and hem are adjusted to seal out drafts.

Pilling developing on the fabric surface

While the fleece is treated to be anti-pilling, excessive friction or harsh washing can accelerate this. Follow the recommended care instructions closely, washing with like colors and avoiding abrasive materials.

Zipper is difficult to operate

Ensure the fabric around the zipper is flat and not bunched up. Gently pull the zipper up and down. If it remains stiff, a small amount of graphite from a pencil on the zipper teeth can help lubricate it.
