Troubleshooting
Pilling on the surface of the fleece
Pilling is common with fleece fabrics over time; use a fabric shaver gently to remove surface fuzz.
Zipper sticking or becoming difficult to pull
Check the track for stray threads or debris. A small amount of graphite from a pencil tip applied to the teeth can help lubricate a stubborn zipper.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your fleece in peak condition, machine wash in cold water with similar colors and use a mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach, as these can degrade the fleece fibers and reduce warmth. Air drying is highly recommended to preserve the shape and texture of the fabric; however, if you must use a dryer, choose a low-heat setting. This garment is highly compatible with most outdoor shells or waterproof jackets, serving as the perfect thermal foundation in a layering system.
