FAQs
What is Tech Fleece?
Nike Tech Fleece is an innovative fabric that features a unique thermal construction, designed to trap body heat and provide warmth without adding excessive weight or bulk. It's known for its smooth feel and lightweight insulation.
How should I wash my Tech Fleece hoodie?
It is hand or machine washable. For machine washing, use a gentle cycle with cold water and wash with similar colors. Always refer to the care label inside the garment for specific instructions. Air drying is recommended to maintain fabric quality.
Is this hoodie suitable for very cold weather?
While the Tech Fleece provides warmth, this hoodie is primarily designed for layering in cooler weather or as a standalone piece in mild conditions. For very cold weather, it's best worn as a mid-layer under a heavier, weather-resistant outer jacket.
Are the pockets secure?
Yes, the side pockets feature zipper closures, providing secure storage for small personal items like keys, cards, or a phone, preventing them from falling out.
What is the fit of this hoodie?
This hoodie features a 'Regular Fit,' meaning it provides a comfortable, standard silhouette that is neither too tight nor too loose, allowing for easy movement and layering.
Troubleshooting
Hoodie appears wrinkled or creased.
Hang the hoodie immediately after washing or wear. For stubborn creases, a light steaming can be effective. Avoid direct ironing.
Fabric feels less soft or pills after washing.
Ensure you are washing on a gentle cycle with cold water. Avoid harsh detergents or fabric softeners that can leave residue. Air drying helps prevent pilling. If pilling occurs, a fabric shaver can carefully remove it.
Zipper feels stiff or gets stuck.
Check for any small fabric pieces caught in the zipper teeth. If clear, a small amount of zipper lubricant or even rubbing a graphite pencil along the teeth can help smooth its operation.
Color fading over time.
Always wash with similar colors in cold water and use a color-safe detergent. Minimize exposure to direct prolonged sunlight during drying or storage.
