Troubleshooting

Fleece appears to be pilling

Pilling is common with fleece. Reduce the frequency of machine drying and opt for air drying. Gentle washing and avoiding abrasive materials can also help minimize pilling.

Zipper is stiff or catching

Gently pull the fabric around the zipper to straighten it. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a specific zipper lubricant to the teeth.

Garment feels less warm than expected

Ensure the garment is layered appropriately for the conditions. Fleece provides insulation but may require a windproof outer layer in windy or very cold environments.
