Quality and fit of this fleece jacket
I bought this fun fleece jacket I thought looked cool. Its 100% polyester, but made in England so I thought it might be good quality. I like the jacket but the zipper is really bad. It gets stuck and is hard to open and close. I'm not sure if it's just old. Also I think the sleeves might be a bit short? I want some input on whether I should try to return it or not (not sure that I can). Would a zipper change be possible?

Zipper changes are probably possible but not worth it if you dont really like it.
Made in England (or anywhere else) isnt really any kind of guide to how good the construction of modern garments is.
fleece is supposed to be polyester. The only natural alternative is wool fleece which is like 5x the price
yeah, if this is Made in England as in a boohooman made in Leicester sweatshop piece that's a very very different proposition to for example a Made in England Community Clothing piece.
Sleeve looks too short for my taste.
I see. Thanks guys. I really like the design, but the bad zipper and short sleeves makes me not wanna keep it. Ill see if the seller accepts returns, otherwise Ill sell it. Thanks again!
