Product Information
Full details
The OEX Aviemore 1/4 Zip is an ideal mid-layer for students, active individuals, and outdoor enthusiasts who need a reliable, comfortable garment for everyday wear. Its primary benefit is a highly durable fabric construction that maintains its shape after repeated washing, making it a low-maintenance staple for school or outdoor adventures; however, users should note that the fabric is optimized for comfort and layering, meaning it may not provide the windproofing required for extreme high-altitude conditions.

FAQs
Is the OEX Aviemore 1/4 Zip waterproof?
No, it is designed for comfort and thermal regulation rather than waterproof protection.
Can this be worn as a base layer?
It is best used as a mid-layer over a t-shirt or base layer for optimal warmth.
How does the sizing typically run?
The garment features an active, comfortable fit that is true to standard sizing; if you prefer extra room for thick layers underneath, consider sizing up.
Will the fabric fade after many washes?
The fabric is selected for its durability and color retention, though it should be washed with similar colors to ensure long-term brightness.
Does the neck zip scratch the chin?
The zip is designed to be low-profile, but ensure it is fully zipped or adjusted to your comfort level to avoid irritation.
Troubleshooting
Zipper feels stiff or difficult to slide
Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track; applying a small amount of graphite or a specialist zipper lubricant can smooth movement.
Fabric appears slightly wrinkled after drying
Lightly mist with water and shake out, or use a low-heat steamer to restore the smooth finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your OEX Aviemore 1/4 Zip in peak condition, machine wash in cold or warm water with similar colors. Avoid using harsh bleaching agents, as they may compromise the fabric's integrity. It is recommended to hang-dry or use a low-heat setting in a tumble dryer to preserve the longevity of the zipper and the integrity of the fabric weave. This top is highly compatible with standard waterproof shells or rain jackets, as the sleek material reduces friction, allowing you to layer up without feeling restricted.
