FAQs

What is Polartec Classic micro fleece?

Polartec Classic micro fleece is a lightweight, breathable, and highly insulating fabric known for its excellent warmth-to-weight ratio. It is durable and soft, making it comfortable against the skin or as a layering piece.

How do I know if an outer jacket is compatible with this fleece?

Look for Berghaus outer jackets that specifically mention 'InterActive' compatibility. These jackets will have a corresponding zip system designed to connect with this fleece.

Can this fleece be worn as a standalone jacket?

Yes, in mild or dry conditions it can be worn on its own. However, it is primarily designed as a mid-layer and does not offer waterproof or significant windproof protection, so an outer shell is recommended in adverse weather.

How should I wash this fleece jacket?

Machine wash on a gentle cycle at 30°C or 40°C with a mild, non-biological detergent. Do not use fabric softener. Tumble dry on low heat or air dry.

What does the 'Micro' in the product name signify?

The 'Micro' typically refers to the weight or thickness of the fleece. Micro fleece is lighter and less bulky than heavier fleece types, making it ideal for layering and providing a good balance of warmth and breathability.

Are the pockets secure?

Yes, the jacket features zip pockets, which help to keep your belongings secure during activity.

What is the warranty period for this jacket?

Berghaus typically offers a manufacturer's warranty. Please refer to the specific warranty information provided with your purchase or on the Berghaus website for exact details.

Troubleshooting

Fleece seems less warm than expected

Ensure the fleece is clean. Dirt and oils can mat down the fibers and reduce insulation. Avoid using fabric softener during washing, as it can impair the fleece's loft and warmth.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use

Check the zipper teeth for any debris or fabric caught in them. Gently clean the teeth with a small brush. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth.

Fleece is pilling excessively

Some minor pilling is normal with fleece, especially during the initial wears. To minimize it, wash the garment inside out on a gentle cycle with minimal agitation. Avoid washing with items that have rough surfaces or zippers that could snag the fleece.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent warmth-to-weight ratio for effective insulation.
  • Lightweight design makes it comfortable for extended wear.
  • InterActive technology enhances versatility by allowing it to be zipped into compatible outer jackets.
  • Durable fleece material stands up to outdoor use.
  • Practical zippered pockets offer secure storage.

Cons

  • Primarily a mid-layer; requires an outer shell for full waterproof and windproof protection.
  • May not be warm enough as a standalone jacket in very cold or wet conditions.
  • Sizing may vary, so checking measurements is recommended.
  • Limited number of external pockets compared to some technical jackets.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: This is a standalone fleece jacket and requires no initial setup. Simply wear it as a mid-layer or outer layer depending on conditions.

Compatibility: The 'InterActive' technology means this fleece is designed to zip into specific Berghaus outer jackets that also feature the InterActive system. Look for jackets that mention compatibility with the Berghaus InterActive zip.

Care Instructions:

  1. Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle (30°C or 40°C) using a non-biological detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can reduce the effectiveness of the fleece's insulation and breathability.
  2. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang to dry. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators.
  3. Ironing: Do not iron. The heat can damage the synthetic fibers.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place.
