FAQs
What age group is this fleece designed for?
This specific product is sized for children aged 3-4 years.
How warm is this fleece?
The fleece provides moderate warmth, suitable as a layering piece for cooler weather. It is not intended as a heavy-duty winter coat.
Can the name label be removed?
The name label is printed directly onto the fabric (up to age 8) and is not designed to be removed. It is intended to help identify the garment.
Is this fleece waterproof?
No, the fleece is made from marl knit-effect fleece and is not waterproof. It offers protection against wind and light moisture but is not designed for heavy rain.
What is the purpose of the reflective trim?
The reflective trim is a safety feature that helps to increase the child's visibility in low-light conditions, such as dawn, dusk, or overcast days.
How should I wash the fleece?
Machine wash on a gentle cycle with similar colours, using a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softener. Tumble dry on low or air dry. Do not bleach or iron.
Can this fleece be worn by boys and girls?
Yes, this fleece is designed as unisex and can be worn by children of any gender.
Troubleshooting
Fleece appears less fluffy after washing
This can be a natural effect of marl fleece. Ensure you are washing on a gentle cycle and avoid fabric softener. Air drying can help maintain loft better than tumble drying on high heat.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. You can also try rubbing a graphite pencil lead or a small amount of wax along the zipper teeth to lubricate it.
Reflective trim is peeling or damaged
Avoid high heat when drying and do not iron directly on the trim. If minor peeling occurs, it may not significantly affect the fleece's overall function, but continued wear may worsen the issue.
