FAQs
What is Macaroni fabric?
Macaroni fabric is a unique, textured fabric known for its comfort and durability. In this eco-friendly version, it is made from a blend of organic cotton and recycled polyester, providing both softness and a sustainable touch.
Is this hoodie suitable for cold weather?
The Chicoa Full Zip Eco Macaroni Hoodie is designed for transitional weather and as a versatile layering piece. It provides comfortable warmth in cooler temperatures but may require additional layers for very cold conditions.
How should I wash my Eco Macaroni Hoodie?
Machine wash cold with similar colors, turning the hoodie inside out to protect the printed details. Use a mild detergent and avoid bleach. Tumble dry on low heat or air dry flat to maintain fabric quality and prevent shrinkage.
Does this hoodie run true to size?
Info needed: [Refer to the brand's specific size chart for the most accurate fit. Generally, Weird Fish products are designed for a comfortable, regular fit. If you prefer a looser fit, consider sizing up.]
What makes this hoodie 'eco'?
This hoodie is considered 'eco' because it is crafted from a blend of organic cotton and recycled polyester. This use of sustainable materials helps reduce environmental impact compared to conventional fabrics.
Can I wear this hoodie as a jacket?
Yes, the Chicoa Full Zip Eco Macaroni Hoodie is designed to be a fantastic alternative to a light jacket. Its full-zip design and comfortable warmth make it suitable for days when you need a little extra coverage without the bulk of a heavy coat.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or sticky.
Gently rub a graphite pencil along the zipper teeth. Open and close the zipper a few times to distribute the graphite, which acts as a lubricant. Avoid forcing the zipper.
Fabric appears to be pilling (small balls of fiber).
Pilling can occur with fabric blends due to friction. Gently remove pills using a fabric shaver or a de-fuzzer comb. To minimize pilling, wash the hoodie inside out and avoid excessive friction during wear.
Fading of color or print after washing.
Always wash inside out in cold water with a gentle cycle. Air dry or tumble dry on very low heat to preserve color and print integrity. Avoid direct exposure to strong sunlight when drying.
Garment feels less soft after washing.
Ensure you are using a mild, fabric-friendly detergent. Adding a small amount of fabric softener to the rinse cycle (if suitable for your machine and preferred) can help maintain softness, but check the care label first.
