FAQs

What is Polartec microfleece?

Polartec microfleece is a synthetic fabric known for its warmth, softness, and breathability. It's designed to trap air and provide insulation while allowing moisture to escape.

Can I wear this fleece in the rain?

The fleece itself is not waterproof. It is best used under a waterproof jacket in rainy conditions.

How should I store the fleece?

Store the fleece in a clean, dry place. Avoid compressing it for long periods to maintain its loft and insulation properties.

What is the material composition of the fleece?

The Montirex Ascent Polartec 1/4 Zip Fleece is made of 100% Polyamide.

Is the fleece true to size?

The fleece generally runs true to size. However, it's recommended to check the Montirex size chart for the most accurate fit.

Can I return the fleece if it doesn't fit?

Please refer to the Montirex return policy for details on returns and exchanges.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels less warm than expected.

Ensure you are layering correctly. The fleece is designed to be part of a layering system. Consider adding a base layer and a shell for increased warmth.

Zipper is sticking.

Gently work the zipper up and down. If the problem persists, try applying a small amount of lubricant specifically designed for zippers.

Fleece is pilling.

Pilling is a natural occurrence with fleece. To minimize it, wash the fleece inside out. Use a fabric shaver to remove pills if necessary.
