Product Information

Full details

The North Face 100 Glacier 1/4 Zip is a versatile, lightweight insulating layer designed for adult hikers and outdoor enthusiasts who need reliable warmth without the bulk. Crafted from soft, brushed microfibre fleece, this garment excels at moisture management and thermal regulation during active pursuits like summit climbs or morning walks; however, users should note that as a mid-layer, it lacks the windproof properties of a dedicated shell jacket.

FAQs

Is this fleece waterproof?

No, it is moisture-repellent, meaning it handles light moisture well but will soak through in heavy or prolonged rain.

Can I recycle this fleece when I am done with it?

Yes, it is part of a circular design initiative. Please check with your local textile recycling programs or The North Face store take-back schemes.

Does this fleece have pockets?

No, this model features a streamlined design without pockets to keep the profile slim for layering.

How should I layer this for winter?

Use a synthetic or merino wool base layer underneath, the fleece as a mid-layer for warmth, and a waterproof/windproof shell on the outside.

Is the sizing true to fit?

The North Face generally follows standard sizing, but because it is a mid-layer, we recommend checking the size guide if you prefer a looser fit over bulky base layers.

Troubleshooting

Fabric looks worn or fuzzy after washes

Avoid washing with heavy-duty garments like jeans or items with velcro that can cause friction. Ensure you are using a gentle cycle.

Fleece feels cold in windy conditions

The 100 Glacier is not windproof. Layer a windbreaker or shell jacket over the top to block airflow.

Difficulty with the zipper

Check the zipper track for lint or debris caught in the fabric teeth; clear any obstructions gently.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your fleece lasts, follow these care instructions:

  1. Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle in cold water. Use a mild detergent and avoid using fabric softeners, as these can coat the fibres and reduce moisture-wicking efficiency.
  2. Drying: Air dry whenever possible by laying the garment flat. Avoid direct heat sources or high-heat tumble drying, which can damage the microfibre structure.
  3. Compatibility: This item is designed to be worn as a mid-layer. It fits comfortably under standard waterproof shells and over thermal base layers. Check the label for specific sizing to ensure a proper fit over your chosen base layer.
