FAQs

What does 'grid fleece' mean?

Grid fleece refers to the unique geometric pattern woven into the fabric. This design creates small channels that trap warm air close to the body, providing enhanced insulation and breathability compared to traditional flat fleece.

How should I wash my Newark 1/4 Zip Grid Fleece?

Machine wash your fleece at `30°C` on a gentle cycle. It's best to air dry it flat or hang it to dry. Avoid tumble drying, bleaching, and ironing to maintain its quality.

Is this fleece suitable for very cold weather?

The Newark fleece is an excellent *mid-layer* for cold weather, providing significant warmth. However, for extremely cold or windy conditions, it should be paired with a suitable base layer and a windproof/waterproof outer shell for complete protection.

What materials is this fleece made from?

This fleece is made from 88% Recycled Polyester and 12% Viscose, making it a durable and environmentally conscious choice.

Can I wear this as my outermost layer?

Yes, you can wear it as an outermost layer in mild, dry conditions. However, it is not windproof or waterproof, so for windy, rainy, or snowy weather, an additional protective outer shell is recommended.

Are there other color options available?

Yes, the Newark 1/4 Zip Grid Fleece is available in a range of colors, each with a contrasting inner neck, including Red, Yellow, Green, and Beige variants.

What type of neck does this fleece have?

It features a comfortable and classic Polo neckline with a 1/4 zip, allowing for adjustable comfort and style.

Troubleshooting

Fleece doesn't feel warm enough.

Ensure you are layering appropriately for the conditions. This fleece is designed as a mid-layer; for colder or windy weather, wear a suitable base layer underneath and an outer shell over it.

Fabric seems to be pilling or shedding.

Pilling can occur with fleece over time. To minimize this, always wash at `30°C` on a gentle cycle, avoid washing with rough fabrics, and do not tumble dry. Use a fabric shaver to carefully remove existing pills.

Zipper feels stiff or sticky.

Periodically clean the zipper teeth. If still stiff, apply a small amount of zipper lubricant or a graphite pencil to the teeth to help it move smoothly.

Color appears faded after washing.

Ensure you are washing at `30°C` as instructed and avoiding harsh detergents or bleach. Washing inside out can also help preserve color.

The Newark 1/4 Zip Grid Fleece requires no special setup. Simply wear it as desired. ### Compatibility This fleece is designed as a versatile *mid-layer*, making it compatible with a variety of clothing systems. Base Layers: Wear over moisture-wicking base layers for optimal warmth and dryness during active pursuits. Outer Shells: Easily fits under waterproof or windproof jackets and coats, forming an effective barrier against the elements. Casual Wear: Pairs well with jeans, chinos, or outdoor trousers for everyday style and comfort. ### Care Instructions To maintain the quality and longevity of your Weird Fish Newark fleece, follow these care guidelines: Washing: Machine wash at `30°C`. Use a gentle cycle to protect the fleece fibers. Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners as they can reduce the fleece's ability to wick moisture and trap heat. Drying: Do not tumble dry. Air dry flat or hang dry away from direct heat to prevent shrinkage or damage to the fabric. Bleaching: Do not bleach. Ironing: Do not iron. High heat can melt or damage fleece fibers. Dry Cleaning: Do not dry clean.
