Fleece for Women

Fleeces: warmth and comfort for women and men

The fleece is a must-have. It retains heat. It wicks moisture. It is lightweight. Ideal for hiking, sports, or everyday life.

Types of fleeces and characteristics

• Lightweight fleeces: perfect as a mid-layer.
• Thick fleeces: insulating for cold weather.
• Zip fleeces: easy to put on and versatile.
• Fleece vests: freedom of movement for active activities.

Why buy a fleece jacket?

Effective warmth without weight. Quick drying. Often compressible for transport. Easy to care for. Versatile for the mountains and the city.

How to choose the right size

Prioritize layering. If you wear a thermal layer underneath, choose a size that allows for movement. Try it on with the layers you will actually wear. Check the size guides available on each product page.

Materials used

The fleece is often made of synthetic fibers like polyester. Some variants mix densities and brushing to optimize warmth and breathability. For technical use, prefer a fleece with anti-pilling treatment and good wind resistance.

Care

Machine wash at low temperature. Use a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softener to maintain moisture-wicking ability. Air dry or tumble dry on low. Lightly brush to revive the surface if necessary.

Alternatives and complements

In addition or as an alternative, consider waterproof jackets for bad weather. If you are looking for more warmth, also check out the high-performance women's down jackets. Vests and accessories (hats, neck gaiters) extend thermal comfort.
