Troubleshooting
Fleece feels stiff after washing
Ensure you did not use fabric softener, as this can affect the fleece's texture. Re-wash with a small amount of detergent only, and tumble dry on low.
Zipper is difficult to use
Ensure the zipper is fully closed before attempting to move it. Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently wiggle the zipper pull to free any obstructions.
Reduced warmth after multiple washes
Fleece can naturally lose some loft over time. Ensure proper care is followed, avoiding high heat drying which can compress fibers. Consider using it as a mid-layer for added warmth.
