Its primary benefit is providing reliable warmth without bulk, thanks to its breathable POLARTEC 100 fleece construction.

FAQs

Is this fleece suitable for very cold winter weather?

The Taunus fleece is lightweight and designed for moderate warmth. For very cold conditions, it serves best as a layering piece under a warmer jacket or insulated coat.

What does 'bluesign certified' mean?

Bluesign certification means the textile is produced with minimal impact on people and the environment, using a stringent set of criteria for sustainable textile manufacturing.

Can I wear this for high-intensity activities like running?

Yes, the fleece is breathable and moisture-wicking, making it suitable for moderate to high-intensity activities where ventilation is important. However, for very strenuous running in warm weather, a lighter technical shirt might be preferred.

How should I wash this fleece to maintain its properties?

Machine wash cold (30°C) with mild detergent and similar colors. Avoid fabric softeners. Hang dry or tumble dry on low heat. Do not iron.

What is POLARTEC 100 fleece?

POLARTEC 100 is a lightweight fleece fabric known for its warmth-to-weight ratio and breathability. It's a good choice for versatile layering.

Does the fleece contain recycled materials?

Yes, the fleece is made from recycled polyester, contributing to environmental sustainability.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the brand's specific sizing chart for Jack Wolfskin women's apparel. Ensure you measure your chest and waist accurately for the best fit.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels less breathable after washing

Ensure you did not use fabric softener. Wash again with a mild detergent and rinse thoroughly. Avoid high heat drying.

Pilling on the fleece surface

Pilling is natural with fleece. To minimize, wash inside out and avoid abrasion with rough surfaces. Use a fabric shaver for minor pilling.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to free the fabric. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a wax-based lubricant to the zipper teeth.
