- Is $88.99 a good price for the Better Sweater Quarter-Zip?
- Yes. It usually sells near $139 at full price, so $88.99 at Amazon as of November 7, 2026 is a solid discount. It is close to the lowest price this fleece sees outside end-of-season clearance.
- How does the quarter-zip compare to the full-zip Better Sweater?
- Same 10-oz recycled fleece and sweater-knit look. The quarter-zip is a pullover with a stand-up collar and one chest pocket; the full-zip opens all the way and has handwarmer pockets, which suits people who run hot or layer often.
- How does it fit?
- It has a regular fit that reviewers describe as roomy through the body. If you want a trimmer look, size down; if you layer over a flannel or hoodie, take your normal size.
- Is it warm enough for winter?
- It works as a midlayer under a shell in cold weather and as an outer layer in mild fall or spring temperatures. It is not windproof, so it is not a standalone winter jacket.
- What is it made of and where is it made?
- The body is 10-oz 100% recycled polyester fleece with recycled brushed-tricot trim. It is made in Thailand in a Fair Trade Certified factory and dyed with a lower-impact process.
- How should I wash it to limit pilling?
- Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle and tumble dry low or hang dry. Wash it inside out and avoid washing with hook-and-loop or rough fabrics to reduce pilling.
