Product Information

Full details

The North Face 100 Glacier Full-Zip Fleece is designed for adult women seeking a warm, moisture-resistant, and sustainable layering piece for outdoor activities or everyday comfort. Its key benefit is providing reliable insulation and weather protection, with a notable caveat being its primary function as a mid-layer, requiring an outer shell for significant wet or windy conditions. This fleece is constructed from soft, brushed microfibre fleece made of 100% recycled polyester, featuring a full-zip closure, two zipped hand pockets, and adjustable hem and cuffs for a personalized fit. It's also engineered for recyclability as part of The North Face's Circular Design initiative.

FAQs

What is the main purpose of this fleece?

The 100 Glacier Full-Zip Fleece is designed as a warm, insulating mid-layer for outdoor activities and everyday wear. It provides warmth and moisture resistance.

Is this fleece waterproof?

No, the fleece is moisture-repellent, meaning it can handle light moisture and sweat. It is not waterproof and requires an outer shell for protection against rain or snow.

How do I clean my fleece?

Machine wash cold with like colors using a mild detergent. Tumble dry low or hang dry. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach.

Can this fleece be zipped into a jacket?

Yes, this fleece is designed with a zip-in compatible loop and tape system, allowing it to be attached to compatible outer shells from The North Face.

What does 'Circular Design' mean for this product?

Circular Design means the product is engineered for easy disassembly and recycling. When it reaches the end of its life, it can be returned to be remade into new gear, reducing waste.

What material is the fleece made from?

The fleece is made from 100% recycled polyester microfibre fleece.

Does it have pockets?

Yes, it features two concealed zip hand pockets for secure storage and warmth.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels damp after activity.

While moisture-repellent, the fleece is not waterproof. For heavy rain or prolonged wet conditions, an outer waterproof layer is necessary. Ensure the garment is washed and dried properly to restore its properties.

Zipper is difficult to move.

Ensure the fabric around the zipper is not caught. If stiff, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a silicone-based zipper lubricant to the teeth. Always zip carefully and avoid forcing it.

Pilling on the fabric surface.

Pilling can occur with friction. Washing the fleece inside out, avoiding excessive tumbling in the dryer, and minimizing contact with abrasive materials can help reduce pilling.

Elastic binding feels loose.

While designed for durability, heavy wear can stretch elastic. Ensure the garment is correctly sized; if the binding is significantly stretched, it may require professional repair.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides excellent warmth and insulation for its weight.
  • Moisture-repellent fabric helps keep the wearer dry.
  • Made from 100% recycled materials, supporting sustainability.
  • Full-zip allows for easy temperature regulation.
  • Comfortable microfibre fleece is soft against the skin.
  • Features secure zipped pockets for essentials.

Cons

  • Primarily a mid-layer; lacks windproof and waterproof capabilities on its own.
  • May not be sufficient as standalone outerwear in harsh winter conditions.
  • The recycled polyester, while sustainable, may pill over time with heavy use.
  • Sizing can vary, so checking measurements is recommended.
  • Limited external branding may be a con for those preferring prominent logos.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

This is a ready-to-wear garment. Ensure you have selected the correct size for optimal comfort and performance. The full-zip allows for easy dressing and undressing.

Compatibility:

  • Layering: Designed to be compatible with The North Face's Zip-in system. It features a zip-in compatible loop along the back collar and zip-in compatible tape & snaps on the cuffs, allowing it to be securely attached to compatible outer shells.
  • Outerwear: Pairs well with any breathable waterproof or windproof jacket for complete weather protection.

Care Instructions:

  • Washing: Machine wash cold with like colors. Use a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can reduce the fabric's moisture-wicking properties.
  • Drying: Tumble dry low or hang dry. Avoid using bleach or dry cleaning.
  • Zipper Care: Close the main zipper before washing to prevent snagging.
  • Pilling: To minimize pilling, wash inside out.
