FAQs
What is 'Eco Macaroni' fabric?
Eco Macaroni fabric is a signature material from Weird Fish, crafted from a blend of organic cotton and recycled polyester. This blend offers comfort and durability while being a more sustainable choice for the environment.
How sustainable is this hoodie?
The hoodie is made from a blend of organic cotton and recycled polyester, which reduces its environmental impact compared to conventional materials. Organic cotton is grown without harmful pesticides, and recycled polyester repurposes plastic waste.
Can I wear this hoodie in winter?
The Chicoa Hoodie is designed as a versatile layering piece for unpredictable or mild weather. While it provides warmth, it's not a heavy winter jacket and should be layered with other cold-weather gear for very low temperatures.
What are the washing instructions?
Machine wash cold (30°C) on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Air dry flat or tumble dry on low heat. Avoid bleaching and dry cleaning to maintain the fabric's quality.
Does it run true to size?
Weird Fish garments generally run true to size. For the best fit, refer to the brand's official sizing chart if available, or try on a similar item if possible.
What is the metal fish full zip pull?
The metal fish full zip pull is a branded, distinctive detail specific to Weird Fish products, adding a unique and playful touch to the hoodie while providing an easy-to-grip zipper.
Are the pockets functional?
Yes, the two hand slip pockets are fully functional and provide a convenient place to store small items like keys or to keep your hands warm.
Troubleshooting
Zipper feels stiff or gets stuck.
Gently work the zipper up and down. If it persists, apply a small amount of graphite from a pencil or a specific zipper lubricant to the teeth. Avoid forcing the zipper.
Fabric appears to be pilling after wear/wash.
Pilling can occur with natural fiber blends. Use a fabric shaver or a de-fuzzer to carefully remove pills and restore the smooth appearance of the fabric.
Garment seems to have shrunk slightly after washing.
Always wash in cold water and air dry or tumble dry on the lowest heat setting. If slight shrinkage has occurred, gently stretch the garment back into shape while it is still damp.
Printed lining/cuffs are fading.
To protect the print, wash inside out on a gentle cycle with cold water. Avoid harsh detergents and direct high heat when drying or ironing.

Care Instructions

- Washing: Machine wash cold (30°C or 86°F) on a gentle cycle. Using cold water helps preserve the fabric and reduces energy consumption.
