87 PolarPlus Alpinist Fleece Jacket - Men's

Seawool is a sustainable fabric made from a blend of recycled polyester and wool. It is soft, warm, and environmentally friendly, making it an excellent choice for those looking to reduce their ecological footprint. By using recycled materials, Seawool helps minimize waste and the environmental impact associated with producing new fabrics, allowing you to feel good about your purchase.

Fleece is a lightweight, soft, and warm fabric that excels in outdoor settings. Made primarily from polyester, often sourced from recycled plastic bottles, fleece provides excellent insulation while remaining breathable. This makes it ideal for activities like hiking, camping, or casual wear, as it keeps you warm without overheating.

Overlays are additional layers of fabric placed over the main fabric to improve durability and style. In our fleece jackets, recycled nylon overlays are strategically positioned in high-wear areas like the shoulders and elbows. This design feature not only enhances the jacket's strength but also extends its lifespan, making it a practical choice for active lifestyles.

Zippered pockets are essential for keeping your belongings secure during outdoor activities. Unlike open pockets, zippered pockets prevent items like keys, snacks, or phones from falling out, allowing you to focus on your adventure without worrying about losing your essentials. This added convenience makes our jackets more functional for everyday use and outdoor excursions.

The term "heavyweight" refers to the thickness and density of the fleece fabric, measured in grams per square meter (gsm). A heavyweight fleece, such as the 320gsm option, is thicker and provides superior warmth compared to lighter fabrics. This makes it particularly suitable for colder weather and outdoor activities where insulation is crucial, ensuring you stay cozy and comfortable.

The combination of Seawool and heavyweight fleece offers the best of both worlds: sustainability and warmth. Seawool provides a soft, eco-friendly fabric, while the heavyweight fleece ensures you stay warm in chilly conditions. This blend not only supports your comfort during outdoor activities but also aligns with environmentally conscious choices, making it a smart addition to your wardrobe.
