FAQs
Is this fleece suitable for very cold weather?
The 100 Glacier Full-Zip Fleece provides reliable lightweight warmth. For very cold conditions, it functions best as an insulating mid-layer, ideally paired with a waterproof or windproof outer shell to maximize heat retention and protection from the elements.
Can I wear this fleece by itself in light rain?
While the fleece offers warmth, it is not designed to be waterproof or water-resistant. It will absorb moisture in rain. For protection against light rain, it is recommended to wear a waterproof outer shell over the fleece.
What does 'zip-in compatible' mean?
Zip-in compatibility allows this fleece to be securely zipped into specific compatible outer jackets from The North Face. This creates a versatile, combined system that offers enhanced warmth and protection, acting as a single garment.
How do I clean my 100 Glacier Fleece?
Machine wash cold (30°C) with similar colors, using a mild detergent. Tumble dry on low heat or line dry. Do not bleach, iron, or dry clean. Avoid fabric softeners to maintain its performance.
Is this fleece environmentally friendly?
Yes, it is. The 100 Glacier Full-Zip Fleece is made from 100% recycled polyester. It's also part of The North Face’s Circular Design initiative, meaning it's designed with its end-of-life recycling in mind to minimize waste.
Does this fleece offer wind protection?
As a microfleece, it offers minimal wind resistance. While it provides excellent warmth, strong winds can penetrate the fabric, reducing its insulating effect. For windy conditions, it's best worn under a windproof outer layer.
Troubleshooting
Fleece feels less warm than expected
Ensure you are wearing appropriate base layers beneath the fleece. For colder conditions, consider wearing it as a mid-layer integrated with a compatible outer shell to block wind and retain heat more effectively. The fleece is designed for lightweight warmth, not extreme cold as a standalone.
Fleece appears to be pilling or showing signs of wear quickly
Verify that you are following the care instructions, specifically machine washing cold with similar items and avoiding harsh detergents or fabric softeners. Air drying or tumble drying on low heat can also help preserve the fabric's integrity. Avoid washing with items that have zippers or hook-and-loop fasteners that could cause friction.
Difficulty zipping the fleece into a compatible outer shell
Check that both the fleece and the outer shell are genuinely 'zip-in compatible' and that the zippers are designed to interlock. Align the zippers carefully at the collar and cuffs before attempting to zip. Sometimes, small fabric snags can prevent smooth zipping; ensure the fabric is clear of the zipper teeth.
Pros and Cons
Pros
Reliable Warmth: Provides effective insulation for various conditions without excessive bulk.
Highly Breathable: Prevents overheating and clamminess during physical activity.
Versatile Layering Piece: Functions perfectly as a stand-alone top or integrated into compatible outer shells.
Sustainable Material: Constructed from 100% recycled polyester, reducing environmental impact.
Durable Construction: Anti-pilling fabric and reinforced binding ensure longevity.
Secure Storage: Two zippered hand pockets keep small items safe.
Cons
Limited Standalone Protection: As a lightweight fleece, it offers minimal wind or rain resistance when worn without an outer shell.
Specific Compatibility: Zip-in feature requires compatible The North Face shells, limiting universal integration.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Wearing: Simply put on the fleece and use the full-length front zipper to adjust for comfort and ventilation.
Pocket Use: Utilize the two zippered side pockets for secure storage of small personal items.
Hem and Cuff Adjustment: The elastic binding at the hem and sleeve cuffs is designed to provide a snug fit, helping to retain warmth. No manual adjustment is typically needed for these.
Compatibility
Layering: This fleece is designed as an ideal mid-layer. Wear it over a base layer (e.g., a technical t-shirt or thermal top) and under a waterproof or windproof outer shell for optimal performance in cold or variable conditions.
Zip-in System: The fleece features a `zip-in compatible loop` along the back collar and `zip-in compatible tape & snap` on the cuffs. This allows it to be seamlessly integrated with compatible The North Face outer shells, creating a unified, warmer jacket system. Ensure your outer shell explicitly states "zip-in compatibility" to use this feature.
Care
Washing: Machine wash cold (30°C / 86°F) with similar colors. Use a mild detergent.
Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or line dry. Avoid high heat to preserve the fleece's integrity and anti-pilling properties.
Bleach & Iron: Do not bleach. Do not iron, as high heat can damage the synthetic fibers.
Dry Cleaning: Do not dry clean.
Maintenance: To maintain the soft, brushed texture and anti-pilling qualities, avoid washing with abrasive items or using fabric softeners, which can reduce breathability.
