Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Simply put on The North Face 100 Glacier Full-Zip Fleece like any other jacket. Its full-zip design allows for easy wear and removal. Adjust the zipper to control your body temperature.
Compatibility
This fleece is highly compatible with a layering system:
- Base Layer: Wear over a moisture-wicking t-shirt or thermal top for optimal comfort and dryness.
- Outer Shell: For windy, rainy, or very cold conditions, pair it with a waterproof, windproof, or insulated outer jacket.
It is suitable for a wide range of activities, from light strolls to more strenuous outdoor adventures, as long as appropriate outer protection is considered.
Care Instructions
Proper care will extend the life and maintain the performance of your fleece. Always refer to the care label, but general recommendations for fleece include:
- Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with similar colors. Avoid hot water, which can damage the synthetic fibers.
- Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can clog the fibers and reduce the fleece's breathability and insulating properties.
- Bleach: Do not bleach.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or, preferably, air dry flat or hang to dry. High heat can melt or damage fleece fibers.
- Ironing: Do not iron.
- Dry Cleaning: Do not dry clean.
