Troubleshooting

Fleece feels less soft after washing.

Avoid using fabric softener. If already used, try a re-wash with a small amount of white vinegar in the rinse cycle to help restore softness. Ensure tumble drying is on a low setting.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Ensure the fabric around the zipper is clear and not bunched. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it persists, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a tiny drop of lubricating oil to the zipper teeth.

Garment has shrunk after washing.

Always follow the care instructions carefully, especially regarding water temperature and drying methods. If minor shrinkage has occurred, you can try gently stretching the fabric while damp. Future washes should strictly adhere to cold water and low/no heat drying.

Pilling on the fleece fabric.

Pilling is common with fleece. To minimize, wash inside out and avoid excessive friction with rough surfaces. You can use a fabric shaver to gently remove pills.
