FAQs

What is the material composition of this Karrimor Micro Fleece?

This Karrimor Micro Fleece is made from 100% Polyester, providing lightweight warmth and durability.

Is this fleece suitable for very cold weather?

While designed for warmth, this micro fleece functions best as an insulating mid-layer in very cold conditions. For optimal protection, it should be worn under a suitable outer jacket that provides wind and water resistance.

How should I wash this Karrimor Micro Fleece?

It is recommended to machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with similar colors and air dry to maintain its quality and prolong its lifespan. Avoid using bleach, harsh detergents, or ironing.

Does this micro fleece have pockets?

The product description primarily highlights the quarter-length zipped fastening and does not specify pockets. It is designed as a minimalist warming layer, focusing on core insulation.

Is this fleece windproof or waterproof?

No, this micro fleece is designed primarily for warmth and insulation; it is not inherently windproof or waterproof. For protection against wind and rain, it should be worn with appropriate outer shell layers.

Is this product available in other colors or sizes?

Yes, the Karrimor Micro Fleece is available in various colors such as Black, Blue, and Grey, and typically comes in a range of adult sizes to suit different preferences and builds. Info needed: Check product listings for specific size availability.

Troubleshooting

Fleece isn't as warm as expected.

Ensure proper layering, especially in colder conditions. This fleece is a mid-layer; consider wearing a thermal base layer underneath and a windproof or waterproof outer shell over it for maximum warmth and protection.

Zipper feels stiff or stuck.

Apply a small amount of zipper lubricant or wax to the teeth, then gently work the slider back and forth. Avoid forcing the zipper, as this can cause damage.

Fabric pilling after washing.

To minimize pilling, wash the fleece inside out on a gentle cycle with similar fabrics. Avoid washing with abrasive items like jeans or towels. Air dry, and if pilling occurs, gently remove it with a fabric shaver or a lint brush.

Static cling is noticeable.

Polyester can sometimes generate static. Try using a dryer sheet if tumble drying (on low heat) or lightly mist the fleece with an anti-static spray. Ensure it is fully dry before wearing.

Care Instructions

To maintain the quality and performance of your 100% Polyester Karrimor Micro Fleece, follow these care guidelines:

  • Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with similar colors. Avoid using hot water, which can damage synthetic fibers.
  • Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid bleach or harsh chemicals.
  • Drying: Air dry by laying flat or hanging. Tumble drying on low heat is possible, but air drying is preferred to prevent damage and reduce energy consumption. Do not iron.
  • Avoid: Do not dry clean. Avoid fabric softeners as they can reduce the wicking properties of fleece.
