FAQs
What material is this jacket made from?
This jacket is made from soft sherpa fleece, a synthetic material known for its plush, wool-like texture and excellent warmth-to-weight ratio. Info needed: [Exact material composition, e.g., 100% Polyester]
Is this jacket suitable for very cold winter weather?
The Roman Originals Soft Sherpa Fleece Jacket is lightweight and designed to provide warmth during seasonal changes and mild chills. While it's great for layering, it may not be sufficient as a primary outer layer in very harsh or extreme cold conditions.
How should I wash this jacket to keep it soft?
Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softener as it can reduce the fleece's softness and breathability. Tumble dry on low heat or air dry flat to maintain its texture and shape.
Does this jacket have pockets?
Yes, this jacket features practical casual side pockets, offering convenience for warming hands or carrying small items.
What is the length of the jacket?
The approximate length of this jacket is 64cm, designed to sit comfortably around the hip area for most users.
Can I iron this fleece jacket?
No, it is strongly advised not to iron this fleece jacket. The high heat can melt or damage the synthetic fibers, leading to permanent damage to the fabric.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels less soft or matted after washing
Ensure you are washing on a gentle cycle with cold water and avoiding fabric softener. Tumble dry on low heat or air dry flat. Fabric softener can cause residue buildup, and high heat can damage the fibers.
Pilling (small fabric balls) appearing on the surface
Pilling is common with fleece over time. To minimize it, wash the jacket inside out on a gentle cycle. For existing pills, use a fabric shaver or a dedicated pilling comb to gently remove them.
Zipper is sticking or difficult to move
Check if any fabric is caught in the zipper teeth. If not, gently rub a graphite pencil, a bar of soap, or a zipper lubricant along the teeth of the zipper to help it glide more smoothly.
Jacket generates static electricity
Static cling can occur with synthetic fabrics, especially in dry conditions. Try adding a dryer sheet (without fabric softener properties) if tumble drying, or mist the jacket lightly with water mixed with a small amount of fabric conditioner (applied externally, not during wash) before wearing.

Care Instructions
To maintain the softness, shape, and longevity of your sherpa fleece jacket, follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash cold (30°C or 86°F) on a gentle cycle with similar colors. Using cold water helps preserve the fabric's integrity and prevents shrinking or damage to the fibers.
- Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach, which can damage the fleece fibers and cause discoloration.
- Fabric Softener: It is generally recommended to *avoid fabric softener* when washing fleece. Fabric softeners can build up on the fibers, reducing their softness, breathability, and ability to wick moisture.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or air dry flat. High heat can melt synthetic fibers and lead to matting or pilling. If air drying, ensure it's laid flat to maintain its shape. Avoid hanging wet fleece as it can stretch.
- Ironing: Do not iron. The heat from an iron can melt or scorch the synthetic fibers of the fleece.
- Storage: Store the jacket folded in a cool, dry place. Avoid compressing it excessively to maintain its loft and softness.
