FAQs

What is the material composition of the sweatshirt?

The sweatshirt is made from a 75% cotton and 25% polyester fleece blend.

Is this sweatshirt suitable for very cold weather?

Yes, the thick 13-oz. fleece with a lofted interior provides significant warmth and is suitable for brisk days and cool evenings. For extreme cold, it can be effectively layered.

How does the 'Relaxed Fit' differ from a standard fit?

A Relaxed Fit provides more room in the body and sleeves for comfort and ease of movement, without being excessively baggy. It's designed for casual wear and layering.

Will this sweatshirt shrink after washing?

The sweatshirt is built with fleece that resists shrinking. However, following the recommended cold wash and low/hang dry care instructions is crucial to prevent any potential shrinkage.

How should I clean the chest graphics?

Avoid direct ironing on the decoration. Gentle washing as per the care instructions is recommended. Do not bleach or dry clean.

What is the weight of the fleece?

The fleece is a substantial 13-oz weight, providing good warmth and durability.

Can this sweatshirt be worn in the summer?

Due to its warming properties, it is best suited for cooler seasons. It might be too warm for summer months unless worn in air-conditioned environments.

Troubleshooting

Sweatshirt feels too tight

Ensure you followed the care instructions, especially regarding washing and drying temperatures. If shrinkage is the issue, the garment is designed to resist this, but extreme heat can cause it. Consider ordering a size up if you prefer a looser fit.

Pilling on the exterior

This sweatshirt is designed to resist pilling. If pilling occurs, it may be due to excessive friction. Try a fabric shaver gently on the affected areas. Ensure proper washing and drying methods are used.

Loss of shape in cuffs or hem

The wide rib-knit construction is built for shape retention. Ensure the garment is not over-dried on high heat, which can degrade elastic fibers. Reshape cuffs and hem gently while damp if needed.
