Details and Care Material: 100% Cotton with brushed interior Colour: Gray mélange Care instructions: Machine wash cold Frequently Asked Questions This is listed as oversized. Should I size down, or take my normal size? Size down by one. The cut is intentionally generous through the chest and shoulders, so taking your normal size will read as very large rather than relaxed. Is this suitable for cooler months, or is it a year-round piece? The brushed interior adds a layer of insulation that makes this best suited to autumn and winter. It is mid-weight enough to wear comfortably indoors or layered under a jacket when temperatures drop. How does brushed cotton differ from standard cotton fleece, and does it pill over time? Brushed cotton is mechanically raised on the inner surface to create a softer, slightly napped texture that traps warmth without the bulk of fleece. When washed cold and air-dried occasionally, the brushed surface holds its loft significantly longer than standard fleece constructions, which tend to pill at friction points after repeated machine cycles.
