Product Information
Full details
The Karrimor Fleece Jacket is designed for adult males seeking a lightweight yet warm mid-layer for outdoor activities. Its primary benefit is providing effective insulation without bulk, making it ideal for layering. A potential caveat is its specific utility as a mid-layer, meaning it requires an outer shell for full weather protection. Key features include its 100% polyester microfleece construction for excellent warmth-to-weight ratio and breathable properties.

What material is the jacket made from?

Can this jacket be worn as an outer layer?
It can be worn as an outer layer in dry, mild conditions, but it is most effective when used as a mid-layer for added warmth and moisture management.
How do I wash the fleece jacket?
Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Tumble dry on low heat or air dry. Avoid bleach, ironing, and dry cleaning.
Is this jacket suitable for extreme cold?
As a mid-layer, it contributes to warmth in cold conditions. For extreme cold, it should be part of a comprehensive layering system, including a well-insulated outer shell.
What does 'microfleece' mean?
Microfleece refers to a finer, lighter version of fleece fabric that provides excellent warmth-to-weight ratio and a soft feel.
Troubleshooting
Fleece feels less warm after washing.
Ensure you are using a mild detergent and avoiding fabric softeners, which can reduce the loft and insulating properties of fleece. Air drying or low tumble dry is recommended.
Jacket seems too tight or restrictive.
Verify you have selected the correct size based on the product's sizing chart. If it's still restrictive, consider layering it with lighter base layers or checking if a larger size is needed for your intended use.
Pilling or snagging on the fabric.
Avoid washing the fleece with abrasive materials like denim or items with zippers. Use a mesh laundry bag for added protection during washing.
