FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the Borg and Fleece fabric?

The Borg and Fleece fabric provides excellent softness and warmth, making it ideal for insulation in cooler weather.

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

It is a warm jacket, best suited as a mid-layer or an outer layer in mild to cool conditions. For very cold weather, layering it under a waterproof or insulated jacket is recommended.

How do I ensure I order the correct size?

Refer to the specific UK sizing measurements provided in the product description. Measure your chest circumference and compare it to the guide (e.g., 20 UK corresponds to a 45-inch chest). Remember that brand sizing can vary.

Can I machine wash this jacket?

Yes, you can machine wash the jacket at 30°C on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent.

Is this jacket environmentally friendly?

Yes, the jacket is made from recycled materials, making it a more sustainable choice.

Does the jacket have pockets?

Yes, it features two side zip pockets for secure storage.

What type of collar does the jacket have?

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels less warm after washing

Avoid using fabric softener, as it can mat the fleece fibers and reduce insulation. Ensure the jacket is fully dry before storing.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use

Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it persists, a small amount of graphite from a pencil tip applied to the teeth can help lubricate it. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track.

Pilling or bobbling on the fabric surface

This can occur with normal wear. Use a fabric shaver to carefully remove any pills. Avoid excessive friction during washing and drying.
