FAQs

Is this garment machine washable?

Yes, it is recommended to wash on a gentle cycle with cold water to preserve the fabric quality.

Can this be worn as a base layer?

Due to its fleece material and regular fit, it is better suited as a mid-layer worn over a thinner base layer.

Does the collar hold its shape after washing?

Yes, the ribbed collar is designed to retain its structure, though following care instructions is key.

What does the regular fit mean?

The regular fit provides a standard cut that is neither too tight nor too baggy, offering a comfortable, classic aesthetic.

Are the zippers durable?

The garment uses high-quality YKK zippers known for their reliability and smooth performance.

Troubleshooting

Zipper feels stiff or hard to pull

Ensure no fabric is caught in the track and apply a small amount of graphite or specialized zipper lubricant if necessary.

Fleece showing signs of pilling

Use a fabric shaver or lint remover specifically designed for fleece garments to restore the smooth surface.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This garment does not require any specialized setup. To ensure the longevity of the fleece and maintain its soft texture:

  1. Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle in cold water with similar colors.
  2. Drying: Air dry whenever possible to prevent the fleece from pilling or shrinking.
  3. Ironing: Avoid high-heat ironing directly on the fabric; use a low-heat setting if absolutely necessary.
  4. Compatibility: The regular fit makes this piece highly compatible with standard base layers like cotton t-shirts or thin thermal long-sleeves.
