How to care for a fleece oversized sweatshirt

05 December 2025

Taking care of your fleece oversized sweatshirt is essential to extend its life and keep it looking chic and comfortable. These versatile pieces, perfect for a relaxed urban style, deserve special attention to keep their good looks. Here are some practical tips for caring for your fleece oversized sweatshirt.

Washing

To preserve the quality of the fleece, machine wash your sweatshirt in cold water. Use a delicate cycle to avoid damaging the soft fibres of the fabric. Choose a gentle detergent and avoid fabric softeners, which can spoil the plush feel of the fleece.

Drying

After washing, lay your sweatshirt flat on a clean towel to dry. Avoid the tumble dryer, which can shrink the fleece and distort its oversized shape. If possible, dry it in the open air away from direct sunlight to prevent fading.

Ironing

If your sweatshirt needs ironing, do it at a low temperature so as not to damage the fabric. Use a pressing cloth or turn the garment inside out to avoid leaving shiny marks on the fleece.

Storage

During the warmer months, when you aren’t wearing your oversized sweatshirt, store it in a dry, well-ventilated place. Avoid squashing it into a cramped space so that it keeps its shape and volume.

Extra tips

To remove small stains, treat them straight away with a clean cloth and cold water. Avoid rubbing hard so you don’t spread the dirt or damage the fibres.

By following these care tips, you’ll be able to enjoy your fleece oversized sweatshirt for a long time while keeping its unique style and exceptional comfort. Remember that good care not only guarantees the durability of your garment but also helps reduce environmental impact by extending the life of your favourite pieces.
