Fleece jacket
Thinking About Buying a Fleece to Stay Warm?
Trust us—fleeces are warm garments, and there’s a reason why so many mountain enthusiasts wear them. Made from soft, lightweight, and breathable materials, they come in the form of zip-up jackets or pullovers. They serve as a mid-layer (or second layer) between a ski jacket and a thermal base layer. Practical and versatile, they pack easily into a hiking backpack, making them perfect for all your outdoor activities, even when the weather takes a turn for the worse. To stay protected and dry, we recommend adding a rain poncho to your gear. But for now, let’s focus on insulation and keeping warm—explore our collection of men’s fleece jackets, our range of women’s fleeces, and our selection of children’s fleece jackets.
