Troubleshooting
Fleece feels less warm after washing
Avoid using fabric softener during washing, as it can clog the fleece fibres and reduce their insulating properties. Wash using a mild detergent on a gentle cycle.
Zips are stiff or difficult to use
Ensure the fabric around the zip is not caught. Gently try to move the zip back and forth. If stiffness persists, a small amount of graphite from a pencil rubbed on the teeth can help lubricate it.
Pilling or bobbling on the fabric surface
Pilling is a natural occurrence with fleece fabric over time. To minimize it, wash the fleece inside out and avoid abrasive contact with rough surfaces.
