Troubleshooting
Fleece feels less warm than when new

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This jacket is designed for simple, everyday wear. For optimal longevity, machine wash the fleece on a cool, gentle cycle using a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can coat the synthetic fibers and reduce the fleece's breathability and moisture-wicking properties. Always air dry the garment; avoid tumble drying on high heat to prevent shrinkage or damage to the microfleece structure. The XL sizing provides a standard athletic fit, ensuring compatibility with standard sized base layers.
