- Is the Arctic Crest warm enough on its own?
- Yes for cool, dry days. It is a midweight sherpa fleece, so it holds warmth well in mild cold but needs a shell in wind or rain.
- Is it waterproof?
- No. It has a water-repellent finish that beads light drizzle, but seams and fabric are not sealed for sustained rain.
- How does it fit?
- It runs roomy and bulky, which suits layering. Shoppers who want a close fit may prefer to size down.
- Can I wear it under a rain shell?
- Yes, but the thick pile takes up space. Size the shell up or choose a slimmer fleece if you layer often.
- How should I wash it?
- Machine wash cold and tumble low or hang dry. Avoid fabric softener, which flattens the pile and reduces its loft.
- Does it have pockets?
- Yes, it has hand pockets and a full front zip with a high collar.
