Troubleshooting
Fleece feels less warm than expected
Ensure the fleece is clean, as dirt and oils can reduce its insulating properties. Check that the cuffs and hem are sealing properly to prevent drafts.
Zipper is difficult to use
Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth. Ensure zippers are closed before washing.
Fabric pilling or snagging
Avoid washing with abrasive materials like denim. Use a fabric shaver carefully on any small pills that may form over time. Check for snags and try to gently tuck them back into the weave if possible.
