Question 1

What activewear jackets and hoodies does Quince offer for women?

Accepted Answer

14-style layering assortment. Ultra-Form jackets (buttery-soft 4-way stretch, quick-dry, antimicrobial) include the Slim Fit Jacket, Hooded Crop Jacket, and Contour Jacket. Ultra-Soft (softer hand-feel, low-impact-leaning) covers the Slim Fit Jacket and Slim Fit Hooded Jacket. Flowknit (lighter, recycled, anti-odor) offers a Pullover Hoodie, Pullover Crew, Full-Zip Hoodie, and Quarter-Zip Pullover. Race Day (lightweight running performance fabric) has a Half-Zip Pullover and Full-Zip Jacket — designed specifically for running. The Water Repellent Windbreaker (recycled nylon, windproof + breathable) handles light rain. The Micro Ripstop Packable Hike Jacket compresses into a pouch for travel. The 100% Merino Wool Cold Weather Base Layer 1/4 Zip is a thermoregulating wool base layer for cold-weather outdoor wear.

Question 2

What's the best running jacket from Quince?

Accepted Answer

Quince's running-specific options are the Race Day Half-Zip Pullover and Race Day Full-Zip Jacket — both crafted from lightweight, breathable performance fabric designed to move with you for every stride. The Race Day Half-Zip is the pullover-style choice when you want minimal closure fuss; the Race Day Full-Zip Jacket has a full zipper for easy on/off during temperature changes. For runners who want hooded coverage, the Ultra-Form Hooded Crop Jacket or Ultra-Soft Slim Fit Hooded Jacket layer well over running gear. For wet-weather runs, the Water Repellent Windbreaker handles light rain. For longer cold-weather runs, layer the Merino Wool Base Layer 1/4 Zip underneath.

Question 3

What's the difference between half-zip, quarter-zip, and full-zip pullovers?

Accepted Answer

Three different closure styles for different fit and ventilation preferences. A full-zip has a zipper running the full length of the front — easy on/off, maximum ventilation when open, can be worn open as a layer. Quince offers full-zip in Flowknit Full-Zip Hoodie, Ultra-Soft Slim Fit Hooded Jacket, Ultra-Form Slim Fit Jacket + Contour Jacket + Hooded Crop Jacket, and Race Day Full-Zip Jacket. A half-zip has a zipper that goes about half the length of the chest — pulls over the head like a pullover but the zipper opens for ventilation and easier removal. Quince offers the Race Day Half-Zip Pullover. A quarter-zip goes about one quarter of the length — pulls over the head, with just a short zipper at the neckline for minor ventilation. Quince offers the Flowknit Quarter-Zip Pullover.

Question 4

How do activewear jackets fit?

Accepted Answer

Most run true to size with slim athletic cuts. Ultra-Form jackets (Slim Fit, Hooded Crop, Contour) fit close to the body for layering under shells or wearing over performance tops. The Hooded Crop is intentionally shorter — sits at the natural waist. The Contour Jacket has a more structured silhouette. Ultra-Soft jackets fit similarly slim with a softer hand. Flowknit jackets fit relaxed-athletic — true to size; size up for a looser lounge feel. The Race Day jackets fit close to the body for an aerodynamic running silhouette. The Windbreaker fits lightly with room for layering underneath. The Micro Ripstop Packable Hike Jacket has a relaxed mobility fit for outdoor wear.

Question 5

How do I care for performance fabric jackets?

Accepted Answer

For Ultra-Form, Ultra-Soft, Flowknit, Race Day, and Micro Ripstop: machine wash cool on a gentle cycle. Avoid fabric softener — it coats synthetic performance fibers and reduces moisture-wicking, quick-dry, and water-repellency over time. Tumble dry low or hang dry. For the Water Repellent Windbreaker (recycled nylon): machine wash cool gentle, hang dry — preserves the water-repellent finish longer than tumble drying. For 100% Merino Wool Base Layer 1/4 Zip: hand wash cool or machine wash on wool/delicate cycle in a mesh bag, lay flat to dry — merino is naturally odor-resistant. Avoid bleach across all materials.
