FAQs

Are fleeces warm enough for winter?

On their own, fleeces are great for cool days. In winter, pair a midweight or sherpa fleece with a waterproof or insulated jacket for extra warmth and protection.

What’s the difference between micro-fleece and regular fleece?

Micro-fleece is thinner and lighter, making it ideal for high activity and layering. Regular and sherpa fleeces are thicker, offering more insulation and a cosier feel.

Can I wear a fleece under a waterproof jacket?

Yes. Fleeces are designed as mid-layers—wear them over a base layer and under a waterproof shell to stay warm and dry.

How should I wash my fleece?

Wash on a cool, gentle cycle and avoid fabric softener, which can affect breathability. Air dry where possible to maintain softness and shape.
