FAQs

What is the primary use case for this fleece?

The Dare 2b Arising Fleece is ideal for adult males engaging in outdoor activities like hiking, climbing, or trail running in cold or variable weather conditions, offering warmth, breathability, and UV protection.

How does the SeamSmart technology benefit the wearer?

SeamSmart technology minimizes seams to provide greater freedom of movement and reduce potential chafing, making the fleece more comfortable during active pursuits.

Is this fleece suitable for very cold winter conditions?

It provides good thermal insulation and is excellent as a mid-layer. For extreme cold, it is recommended to layer it under a more robust insulated or waterproof outer jacket.

What does UPF 50+ protection mean?

UPF 50+ indicates that the fabric blocks at least 98% of the sun's harmful ultraviolet rays, offering excellent sun protection during outdoor activities.

How should I care for my Arising Fleece to maintain its properties?

Machine wash at 30°C on a gentle cycle, do not bleach, and tumble dry on low heat or air dry. Avoid ironing and dry cleaning to preserve the fabric's performance.

What material is the fleece made from?

The fleece is made from 100% recycled polyester fleece fabric with a fabric weight of 200 g/m².

Does the odor control require special washing?

The antibacterial odor control treatment is chemical-free and integrated into the fabric. Standard washing according to the care instructions is sufficient. Avoid fabric softeners.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels tight or restrictive

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Refer to the brand's sizing chart and consider the intended layering use. The SeamSmart technology is designed for flexibility, but proper sizing is crucial.

Reduced thermal performance over time

Fleece can lose some loft and insulating properties with excessive washing and drying. Follow care instructions carefully, avoiding high heat and harsh detergents. Ensure the fabric is clean, as dirt can trap air and reduce insulation.

Odor control seems less effective

The antibacterial treatment is designed to last but may diminish with heavy wear and frequent washing. Ensure the garment is thoroughly washed and dried according to care instructions. Avoid fabric softeners, which can interfere with the fabric's properties.
