Product Information

Full details

The North Face 100 Glacier Quarter Zip Fleece is an essential mid-layer for adult male hikers and outdoor enthusiasts seeking reliable warmth without excess bulk. Crafted from soft, moisture-repellent polyester, it excels at regulating temperature during early morning treks or high-altitude summits, though users should note it is not waterproof on its own and requires an outer shell for rainy conditions.

FAQs

Is this fleece windproof?

It is designed to be breathable; while it offers protection from a light breeze, you should pair it with a windproof shell for extreme conditions.

Can I wear this in the rain?

The material is moisture-repellent, meaning it resists light drizzle, but it is not waterproof. You should wear a rain jacket over it during heavy rain.

Does the fit run true to size?

Yes, it follows standard sizing, though it is intended as a mid-layer. If you prefer a loose fit for layering thick sweaters underneath, consider sizing up.

How do I ensure the pockets remain secure?

Ensure the zipper pull is fully closed until it sits flat against the pocket opening; this locking mechanism keeps them from sliding open.

What does Circular Design mean?

It indicates that the product was engineered with its end-of-life in mind, focusing on recyclable materials to reduce landfill waste.

Troubleshooting

Fabric feels less effective at repelling moisture over time.

Wash the garment to remove oils and dirt, then air dry. Ensure no fabric softener was used in recent washes.

Zipper feels stiff or gets stuck.

Check for fabric fibers caught in the zipper track and remove them. If it remains stiff, lightly rub a pencil lead or zipper wax along the teeth.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent warmth-to-weight ratio for layering
  • Soft, breathable fabric comfortable for daily wear
  • Secure zipper pockets prevent losing gear on the trail
  • Part of a sustainable, low-waste manufacturing collection

Cons

  • Not windproof or fully waterproof as a standalone layer
  • Limited coverage compared to full-zip jacket styles
  • Requires layering with a hardshell in heavy rain

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To get the best performance from your 100 Glacier Fleece, treat it as part of a layering system. It works best when paired with a technical base layer to wick sweat, and a waterproof shell on top during precipitation.

To maintain the integrity of the fabric:

  1. Machine wash on a gentle cycle with similar colours.
  2. Use mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners, as they can degrade the moisture-repellent properties.
  3. Hang dry when possible to preserve the elastic trims.
  4. Close all zippers before washing to prevent snagging.
