Troubleshooting
Snap buttons feel loose or difficult to close
Check that the fabric is not bunched up under the snap area and align the press-studs carefully before applying firm pressure.
Fleece feels matted after washing
Once dry, gently brush the sherpa fleece with a soft-bristled garment brush to fluff the fibers back to their original texture.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep the fleece in top condition, machine wash it in cold water on a gentle cycle. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can mat the sherpa pile and reduce its insulating properties. Always tumble dry on low heat or hang dry to prevent the material from shrinking or becoming stiff. When layering, ensure the infant is wearing breathable cotton underneath to avoid overheating if transitioning from the cold outdoors to a heated indoor environment.
