FAQs
Is this fleece machine washable?
Yes, it is machine washable; however, we recommend using a gentle cycle in cold water.
Does it have a name label?
Yes, it includes a 'hand-it-down' ID label, making it easy to track or pass along to other children.
Can this be worn as a base layer?
It is designed as a mid-layer or outer layer due to the fleece material; it works best over a shirt.
Does the hood provide enough coverage?
The spandex binding helps the hood stay snug against the head to block out cold air.
What does Fair Trade Certified mean?
It means the people who made the garment earned a premium for their labor, supporting better working conditions.
Is the material waterproof?
No, it is designed for warmth and is quick-drying, but it is not a waterproof jacket.
Troubleshooting
Zipper feels stiff or hard to operate
Ensure there is no fabric caught in the wind flap and gently clean any dirt or lint out of the zipper teeth.
Fleece feels less soft after multiple washes
Avoid using fabric softeners which can leave a residue on synthetic fibers; instead, tumble dry on very low heat for a short time to fluff the fleece.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep the garment in prime condition, always fasten the zipper and snaps before placing it in the washing machine. Wash in cold water with similar colors and use a gentle detergent to prevent the fibers from matting. It is recommended to air dry or use a low-heat tumble cycle, as high heat can damage the synthetic fibers and spandex binding. This jacket is designed for easy layering; it fits comfortably over base layers like long-sleeve cotton tees or under heavier waterproof shells during rainy weather.
