Product Information
Full details
The North Face 100 Glacier 1/4 Zip Fleece is an essential insulating layer designed for adult women who need reliable warmth during outdoor activities or everyday wear. Crafted from soft, brushed microfibre fleece, it offers a lightweight feel without sacrificing heat retention; however, users should note that as a mid-layer, it is best paired with a windproof or waterproof outer shell in harsh weather conditions.

FAQs
Is this fleece windproof?
No, this is a breathable fleece layer. It is highly recommended to wear a windproof shell over it in gusty conditions.
Can I put this in the tumble dryer?
Yes, you can tumble dry on a low-heat setting, but air drying is preferred to prolong the life of the fleece material.
Does the sizing run true to size?
The North Face 100 Glacier typically features a streamlined, slim fit. If you prefer a loose fit, you may want to size up.
What is the material composition?
It is made from high-quality, double-sided brushed synthetic microfibre fleece.
Is it suitable for winter sports?
It works very well as a mid-layer under a ski jacket to provide essential warmth during winter activities.
Troubleshooting
Fabric appearing fuzzy or pilling
While the fabric is anti-pilling, washing inside out with similar materials reduces friction and maintains the smooth texture.
Zip feels stiff or sticks
Ensure no fabric is caught in the track and gently clear any debris from the zipper teeth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This garment is designed for a slim, athletic fit; if you prefer to wear thick base layers underneath, consider if the current size allows for that extra volume. To maintain the integrity of the microfleece, machine wash the garment in cold water on a gentle cycle. Use a mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners, as these can strip the moisture-wicking capabilities of the synthetic fibers. Always air dry the fleece or tumble dry on a low-heat setting; avoid direct high-heat sources like iron or radiators, which can melt or damage the brushed surface.
