FAQs

Is this jacket waterproof?

The jacket is designed to repel moisture but is not waterproof. It is best paired with a shell during rain.

Can I wash this in a machine?

Yes, machine wash on a gentle cycle. Avoid fabric softeners to maintain the fleece's performance.

What does Circular Design mean?

It means the jacket is designed and manufactured with the goal of minimizing waste and supporting garment recyclability.

Is this suitable for winter sports?

It works well as a mid-layer for active winter sports when worn under a protective shell.

Does it have pockets?

The design focuses on a clean silhouette with zip fastening; please check the specific model layout for pocket inclusions.

Troubleshooting

Fabric feels damp after heavy activity

Ensure you are using a moisture-wicking base layer underneath to move sweat away from the body more efficiently.

Zipper feels stiff or sticky

Check for debris in the zipper teeth and gently clean with a soft brush; do not force the zipper if obstructed.

Fleece losing warmth over time

Ensure the garment is not being compressed during storage and wash according to the care instructions to prevent fiber matting.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your fleece, follow these care and compatibility guidelines:

  1. Layering: Combine with a synthetic base layer to maximize moisture management during strenuous activities.
  2. Outer Shell: Pair with a Gore-Tex or similar waterproof, breathable shell when hiking in wet or windy environments.
