FAQs
What is the T-KIT system?
The T-KIT system refers to Aigle's design feature that allows specific jackets and fleeces to be zipped together, creating a layered or combined garment system for enhanced warmth and weather protection.
How do I know if another Aigle garment is compatible with this fleece?
Look for specific mentions of 'T-KIT system' compatibility in the product description of other Aigle items. The fleece itself has zips and fastenings on the sleeves and collar designed to connect with compatible pieces.
Is this fleece suitable for heavy rain?
This fleece is primarily designed for warmth and comfort. While it offers some protection, it is not waterproof. For heavy rain, it should be worn as a layer under a waterproof outer garment.
Can I machine wash and dry this fleece?
Yes, you can machine wash and tumble dry the fleece on a low setting, following the instructions on the care label. However, air drying is often recommended to prolong the life of the fabric.
What material is the fleece made of?
The Aigle T-KIT fleece is made from 100% polyester.
Does this jacket have a hood?
No, this specific Aigle T-KIT fleece jacket features a high neck design but does not include a hood.
How should I care for the white color?
To maintain the white color, it is best to wash the fleece with other white or light-colored items. Avoid washing it with dark or brightly colored garments that could transfer dye.
Troubleshooting
Fleece feels less warm than expected.
Ensure the fleece is clean, as dirt and oils can reduce its insulating properties. Check that it is properly layered and zipped up to retain body heat.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.
Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. You can apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth to improve smoothness. Avoid forcing the zipper.
Pilling or bobbling on the fleece surface.
This is a common characteristic of fleece. To minimize it, wash the garment inside out on a gentle cycle and avoid abrasive materials in the wash. Use a fabric shaver carefully if the pilling becomes significant.
T-KIT system attachments do not connect.
Verify that both garments are from the Aigle T-KIT range and are designed for compatible attachment. Ensure zippers and fastenings are clean and free of obstruction.
