FAQs

What activities is this fleece suitable for?

This fleece is ideal for a wide range of outdoor activities such as hiking, walking, camping, and casual everyday wear in cooler temperatures. It's excellent as a mid-layer for skiing or snowboarding.

Is this fleece waterproof or windproof?

No, the Karrimor Micro Fleece is not waterproof or inherently windproof. It is designed for warmth. For protection against rain or wind, we recommend wearing a waterproof and/or windproof outer shell over it.

Does this fleece have pockets?

The product description does not specify pockets. Based on the design, this particular model is intended as a lightweight insulating layer and typically does not feature hand pockets to maintain its low-bulk profile. Info needed: [Confirm pocket presence/absence]

How should I wash my Karrimor Micro Fleece?

Machine wash cold (30°C / 86°F) with similar colors on a gentle cycle. Tumble dry on low or hang dry. Do not bleach or iron. Always refer to the care label inside the garment for specific instructions.

Is this fleece true to size?

While Karrimor generally follows standard sizing, fit can vary. We recommend consulting the Karrimor sizing chart (if available) and considering your typical size for layering. If you plan to wear thick base layers underneath, you might consider sizing up.

What is the material composition of the fleece?

The Karrimor Micro Fleece is made from 100% Polyester, providing lightweight warmth and durability.

Can this fleece be worn as a stand-alone jacket?

Yes, on mild to cool days without strong wind or rain, the Karrimor Micro Fleece can be comfortably worn as a stand-alone outer layer.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels less warm than expected.

Ensure you are layering appropriately for the temperature. Micro fleeces are designed for lightweight warmth and are often best used as part of a layering system. Add a base layer or an outer shell for increased insulation.

Fleece is pilling after washing.

To prevent pilling, wash your fleece inside out on a gentle cycle with cold water. Avoid washing with abrasive materials like denim or towels. Air dry or tumble dry on very low heat.

Static cling.

Polyester can sometimes build up static. Use a small amount of fabric softener during washing (ensure it's safe for performance fabrics, if applicable, though for basic fleece, most are fine) or use an anti-static spray.

Zip getting stuck.

Gently apply a small amount of graphite from a pencil or a specific zipper lubricant to the teeth of the zipper. Avoid forcing the zipper, as this can cause damage.

Pros

  • Lightweight and easy to pack.

  • Comfortable high neck for added warmth.

Cons

  • Quarter-zip offers less flexibility than a full-zip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

The Karrimor Micro Fleece requires no special setup. Simply put it on as an insulating layer or standalone garment. For optimal comfort, ensure it fits well over any base layers you may be wearing and under any outer layers.

Compatibility

This micro fleece is designed to be highly compatible with a range of outdoor gear. It functions perfectly as a mid-layer under waterproof jackets, windbreakers, or softshell jackets. Its lightweight and relatively thin profile ensures it doesn't add excessive bulk, allowing for freedom of movement. It pairs well with moisture-wicking base layers to effectively manage sweat during active pursuits.

Care Instructions

Proper care will extend the life and maintain the performance of your Karrimor Micro Fleece:

  1. Washing: Machine wash cold (30°C / 86°F) with similar colors. Use a gentle cycle and mild detergent.
  2. Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry. Avoid high heat, as it can damage polyester fibers and lead to pilling.
  3. Bleach/Ironing: Do not bleach. Do not iron, as direct heat can melt or damage the fleece material.
  4. Dry Cleaning: Do not dry clean.
  5. Storage: Store in a dry, well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight.
