This jacket is designed for versatile use, serving as a comfortable mid-layer for warmth during outdoor activities like hiking or as a casual jacket for everyday wear.

Is this jacket waterproof?

No, this is a fleece jacket designed for insulation and comfort. It is not waterproof and should be paired with a waterproof outer layer in wet conditions.

What material is the jacket made from?

The jacket shell is made from 100% recycled polyester.

How should I wash the jacket?

Close zippers before washing, wash dark colors separately, and do not use fabric softener. Machine wash on a gentle cycle and tumble dry on low or air dry.

Can this jacket be worn by both men and women?

Yes, this is a unisex garment designed for adult wear.

What does the '1/2 zip' feature do?

The 1/2 zip allows for easy adjustment of ventilation and temperature control. You can zip it up for warmth or unzip it for airflow.

How does the recycled polyester affect the jacket's performance?

The recycled polyester provides the same warmth and comfort as virgin polyester while offering a more sustainable material choice. It maintains good breathability and durability.

Troubleshooting

Fleece appears to be pilling excessively.

Ensure you are following the care instructions precisely, particularly by not using fabric softener and washing dark colors separately. Gentle washing and air drying can also help prevent pilling.

Jacket feels less warm after washing.

Fabric softener can coat the fleece fibers, reducing their insulating properties. Avoid using fabric softener and consider a gentle wash cycle.

Zipper is difficult to move.

Ensure the zipper is fully closed before washing. Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. You can try to gently work the zipper back and forth. Lubricating the zipper with a graphite pencil or a bit of wax can help.
