FAQs
What is Tech Fleece?
Nike Tech Fleece is a lightweight, warm, and soft material designed for comfort and performance. It's smooth on both sides, offering insulation without bulk.
How should I determine my size?
The hoodie features a standard fit, designed to be relaxed. Refer to Nike's general size charts for men, considering your chest and waist measurements. This specific variant is size XL.
Is this hoodie suitable for very cold weather?
While the Tech Fleece offers good warmth, it is best suited as a mid-layer or for moderate temperatures. For extreme cold, it may need to be supplemented with additional insulated outerwear.
Can I put the hoodie in the dryer?
Yes, you can tumble dry it on a low heat setting. However, air drying is recommended to prolong the life and softness of the fleece material.
What does 'sustainable materials' mean for this product?
This product is made with at least 50% sustainable materials, using a blend of recycled polyester and organic cotton fibers, reducing environmental impact.
How do I clean the zippered sleeve pocket?
The entire hoodie can be machine washed. Ensure the zipper is closed before washing. Do not iron over the zipper or the pocket area.
What is the difference between this and a standard hoodie?
The Tech Fleece material offers superior warmth and a lighter feel compared to traditional cotton hoodies. It also includes modern design elements like taped bindings and a utility sleeve pocket.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or snagging
Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a tiny drop of silicone lubricant to the zipper teeth. Avoid forcing the zipper.
Fleece appears matted or less soft after washing
Ensure you are using a mild detergent and washing in cold water. Avoid fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low heat or air dry. Brush the fleece gently with a soft brush if needed.
Seams or bindings are coming undone
For minor issues, a small amount of fabric glue or careful hand-stitching can be used. If the damage is significant, consult a professional tailor or consider repair options.
Pilling on the fabric surface
Pilling is a common occurrence with fleece. Use a fabric shaver or a pumice stone designed for clothing to gently remove pills. Wash less frequently and inside out to minimize pilling.
