FAQs

What is the primary material of this jacket?

The jacket is made from 100% recycled polyester fleece, specifically a sherpa fleece which provides significant warmth and a soft texture.

Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain or snow?

No, this is primarily a fleece jacket designed for warmth and comfort in cool or cold, dry conditions. It is not waterproof or water-resistant and is best used as a mid-layer under a waterproof shell during precipitation.

How should I wash the jacket to preserve the fleece?

Machine wash cold with like colors, using a mild detergent and avoiding fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry. Do not iron.

What does 'Rugged Ridge™' signify?

Rugged Ridge™ is a product line from Columbia Sportswear, often indicating durable, comfortable outdoor apparel suitable for rugged use and varied conditions.

Can this jacket be worn by women?

This specific model is designed for men. Columbia offers women's-specific fleece jackets with similar features.

What are the benefits of using recycled polyester?

Using recycled polyester reduces reliance on virgin petroleum resources, diverts plastic waste from landfills, and typically requires less energy and water to produce compared to virgin polyester.

Does the jacket have a hood?

Based on the standard design of the Rugged Ridge Sherpa Fleece Jacket, it typically features a collar but no hood. Please check the specific product details for confirmation.

Troubleshooting

Fleece appears matted or less soft after washing.

Ensure you are washing in cold water and avoiding fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low heat or air dry. A gentle brush with a soft-bristled brush can sometimes restore loft after drying.

Jacket feels less warm than expected.

Verify that the full zip is completely closed. Ensure you are using it as a mid-layer in colder conditions or that the outer layer is not blocking airflow excessively. Check for any accidental damage to the fleece.

Pilling on the fleece surface.

This is common with sherpa fleece. To minimize, wash inside out, use a gentle cycle, avoid excessive abrasion (like with rough backpacks), and air dry. A fabric shaver can carefully remove existing pills.

Care Instructions: To maintain the quality and longevity of the sherpa fleece:

  1. Washing: Machine wash cold with like colors. Use a mild detergent.

  3. Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry. Avoid high heat, which can damage or melt the polyester fibers.
  4. Avoid Bleach: Do not use bleach or harsh chemicals.
  5. Ironing: Do not iron. High heat can damage the fabric.
