FAQs

Is this fleece suitable for very cold weather?

This fleece provides good warmth for moderate temperatures and can be layered for colder conditions. For extreme cold, additional insulation layers would be necessary.

How do I ensure the best fit for a unisex item?

Refer to the specific size chart provided by The North Face. Consider your preferred fit (e.g., relaxed or snug) and compare your body measurements accordingly.

Can I use fabric softener with this fleece?

It is generally not recommended to use fabric softener with fleece, as it can reduce the material's insulating properties and potentially cause pilling or matting over time.

How often should I wash the fleece?

Wash as needed. Over-washing can lead to wear and tear. Spot clean minor stains when possible.

Will the blue color fade?

To maintain color vibrancy, wash in cold water, use a mild detergent, and avoid direct sunlight when drying.

What is the material's breathability?

Fleece generally offers moderate breathability, making it comfortable for active use without causing overheating, especially when layered appropriately.

Troubleshooting

Fleece appears matted or stiff

Ensure you are using a mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners, which can degrade fleece. Air drying or low heat tumble drying can help restore softness.

Excessive pilling

Wash the item inside out in cold water. Avoid washing with abrasive materials like denim or towels. Use a fabric shaver gently if needed.

Item seems to have shrunk

Check the care label. Avoid high heat drying. If shrinkage has occurred, try stretching the garment gently while damp.

Lint accumulation

Use a lint roller or a gentle brush to remove accumulated lint. Pre-treating with a dryer sheet (if safe for fleece) before washing can sometimes help reduce static.
