FAQs

Is this jacket waterproof?

No, the fleece material is designed for warmth and breathability, not as a waterproof shield. It is best used in combination with a shell if precipitation is expected.

Can I wear this as an outer layer?

Yes, it functions perfectly as an outer layer in dry, cool conditions, though it provides no protection against strong winds.

How should I clean the fleece?

Machine wash on a cold, gentle cycle with mild detergent. Do not use fabric softener, and avoid high-heat tumble drying.

Is the material breathable?

Yes, the fleece is highly breathable, making it excellent for active pursuits where you need to regulate heat.

What is the best way to store the jacket?

Store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fiber degradation and color fading.

Troubleshooting

Pilling of the fabric surface

Pilling is common with fleece over time; use a fabric shaver gently to remove fibers without damaging the material integrity.

Reduced thermal performance

Ensure the fleece is washed without fabric softeners and is thoroughly dried to maintain the loft of the fibers.

Stiff zipper operation

Ensure no loose fabric or lint is caught in the zipper teeth and clean the track with a soft brush.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your garment, follow these care instructions: Machine wash the jacket in cool water with a mild detergent on a gentle cycle. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can coat the synthetic fibers and reduce the moisture-wicking and breathability performance of the fleece. For drying, it is best to hang-dry the jacket in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources. Because the Glacier Fleece features a classic, minimalist design, it is highly compatible with most outdoor gear, including technical shell jackets, down vests, and casual activewear.
