FAQs
Is the fleece waterproof?
The KX3 Performance Fleece is designed for warmth and durability, but it is not waterproof. It is best suited for dry, chilly conditions or as a mid-layer under a waterproof shell.
Can I replace the zip pullers easily?
Yes, the fleece comes with interchangeable pullers that can be swapped out by hand without the need for tools.
Does this fleece have a secure place for my phone?
Yes, the design includes multiple secure zipped pockets, providing a safe and accessible spot for a smartphone.
How do I determine the right size?
Consult the size chart for your specific region, but note that the KX3 cut is professional and tailored, so consider ordering your standard size unless you intend to wear thick layers underneath.
Are the reinforced panels bulky?
The reinforcement panels are designed to be low-profile, providing durability without adding significant bulk to the jacket's silhouette.
Is this suitable for corporate branding?
The modern design and the ability to customize zip pullers make it an excellent choice for corporate uniforms that require a professional, team-aligned look.
Troubleshooting
Zipper feels stiff or difficult to close
Clear any loose threads from the zipper path and apply a small amount of paraffin wax or silicone-based lubricant.
Pilling on the exterior fabric
Use a fabric shaver gently across the surface to remove pills, avoiding the reinforced shoulder and back panels.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care Instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle with similar colors. Avoid aggressive detergents to maintain the integrity of the knitted fabric.
- Drying: Air drying is recommended to preserve the shape of the reinforced panels; avoid high-heat tumble drying.
- Maintenance: Check zippers regularly for debris; if a zipper feels stiff, a small amount of dry lubricant can be applied to the teeth.
