Troubleshooting
Fleece feels less warm after washing.
Ensure you are using a mild detergent and avoiding fabric softeners, which can degrade fleece fibers. Always follow the recommended washing and drying instructions.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. A small amount of graphite from a pencil or a dry lubricant can sometimes help ease a stubborn zipper. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper teeth.
Seams feel uncomfortable.
The flatlock seams are designed for comfort. If you still experience discomfort, ensure the fleece is not inside out, as the seams are intended to lie flat against the skin on the inside.
