Troubleshooting
Fleece feels matted or less soft after washing

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This gilet is designed as a standalone piece or as part of a layering system. It is best paired with a base layer to manage moisture and a waterproof outer shell if rain is forecasted. For care, wash the garment in a cool, gentle cycle with mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can degrade the breathable finish of the polyester. After washing, reshape while damp and allow it to air dry flat to preserve the integrity of the borg fleece fibers. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the vibrancy of the fabric.
