FAQs

Is this jacket waterproof?

No, the Glacier Fleece is water-repellent and moisture-wicking, but it is not waterproof. It is intended to be used as a mid-layer under a waterproof shell in wet conditions.

Can I put this in the dryer?

Check your specific product label, but generally, it is recommended to air dry or tumble dry on a very low heat setting to prevent material degradation.

Is this fleece suitable for intense winter sports?

It serves as an excellent insulating layer for winter sports, provided you wear it in conjunction with appropriate base and outer layers to manage warmth and moisture.

Does it have pockets?

The design features a focus on a streamlined silhouette and zip fastening; please verify individual model pockets as they may vary by specific collection release.

What does Circular Design mean?

It means the product is designed with the entire lifecycle in mind, focusing on durability, recyclability, and reducing environmental impact.

Troubleshooting

Pilling on the surface of the fleece

Pilling is common with fleece over time; use a fabric shaver or a sweater stone to gently remove excess fibers without damaging the weave.

Zipper feels stiff or stuck

Ensure no fabric is caught in the teeth and gently clean the zipper track with a soft brush to remove dust or debris.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent warmth-to-weight ratio for hiking
  • Breathable fabric prevents overheating
  • Versatile design suitable for both trails and casual settings
  • Quick-drying material composition
  • Easy to layer under waterproof jackets

Cons

  • Not waterproof on its own
  • Limited protection against strong wind without a shell
  • Requires layering for extreme alpine conditions

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your fleece, always check the specific care instructions located on the garment's internal label. Generally, wash with like colours in cool water on a gentle cycle to preserve the integrity of the fibers. Avoid using harsh fabric softeners, as they can impair the moisture-wicking capabilities of the material. For compatibility, the regular fit allows for seamless integration with base layers underneath and technical shell jackets on top. Store the jacket on a hanger to maintain the shape of the high neck and structure of the zip assembly.
