Product Information

Full details

The North Face Glacier 1/4 Zip Top is a versatile, high-performance fleece designed for active kids who enjoy outdoor exploration. It provides excellent thermal regulation through its moisture-wicking fabric and convenient 1/4 zip neck, making it an ideal mid-layer for hiking or a cozy option for daily wear; however, users should note that as a lightweight fleece, it is best utilized as part of a layering system rather than as a standalone outer shell in extreme weather.

FAQs

Is this fleece waterproof?

No, the Glacier 1/4 Zip is not waterproof. It is designed for warmth and moisture management, not for protection against rain.

Can this be worn as a base layer?

While it can be worn over a t-shirt, it is primarily designed as a mid-layer to provide insulation over a dedicated moisture-wicking base layer.

Does the fleece material shrink in the dryer?

To prevent shrinkage, always use the low-heat setting on your dryer or let the item air dry.

What age range is this top for?

This product is specifically designed for kids, with the XS size fitting younger children.

How should I clean salt stains from winter activity?

Rinse the area with cool water and follow with a standard machine wash as directed on the care label.

Troubleshooting

Fabric appearing fuzzy or pilling after many washes

Wash the garment inside out and avoid mixing with rough fabrics like denim to reduce friction.

Zip feels stiff or sticks

Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track; if it remains stiff, lightly rub a graphite pencil tip along the teeth to lubricate the track.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent moisture-wicking properties for active use
  • Lightweight and breathable fleece construction
  • Easy temperature control with the quarter-zip neck
  • Durable design suitable for frequent outdoor wear

Cons

  • Not windproof or waterproof
  • Best used as a layering piece rather than a primary coat
  • Specific fit may require careful sizing for growing children

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of the fleece, machine wash it in cold water with similar colors and use a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can degrade the moisture-wicking properties of the technical fabric. Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang to dry to prevent shrinkage and maintain the fabric's soft texture. This top is highly compatible with The North Face rain shells and down vests, making it a modular piece for a complete outdoor kit.
