FAQs
Is the Synchilla jacket windproof?
No, the jacket is made of breathable fleece and allows airflow, so it is best layered with a windbreaker if conditions are blustery.
What is the best way to wash my Patagonia fleece?
Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle using mild detergent, and hang to dry.
Does this jacket run true to size?
The Patagonia Synchilla generally fits true to size, offering a standard cut suitable for layering underneath.
Can this be worn as an outer layer?
Yes, it is excellent as an outer layer in dry, mild conditions, but it is not intended for use in heavy rain or extreme wind.
How do I prevent the fleece from becoming matted?
Avoid overloading the washing machine and skip fabric softeners, which can cause synthetic fibers to clump together.
Troubleshooting
Visible pilling on the fleece surface
Gently use a fabric shaver or a sweater stone to remove surface pills without damaging the structural fibers.
Jacket feels less warm over time
Wash the jacket to remove oils and dirt that can flatten the fleece pile; ensure it is thoroughly dried to fluff the fibers back up.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because the Synchilla is a versatile fleece, it is highly compatible with most standard outdoor wardrobes. To ensure long-term performance, always wash the garment in cold water on a gentle cycle to preserve the integrity of the fleece fibers. Avoid using harsh fabric softeners, as they can coat the fibers and reduce moisture-wicking capabilities. Tumble dry on low heat or hang to air dry, which is the preferred method to prevent unnecessary heat stress and pilling.
