What fabric is the best for fleece

Good fleece is made from high-quality native yarns (especially long fibers) and processed through advanced techniques. It has the characteristics of extreme lightness, high fluffiness, smooth hand feel, durability, and professional outdoor functionality.

Golden Rule

The "golden rule" for judging the quality of fleece can be comprehensively judged from the following four aspects

Look at the raw materials: this is the cornerstone of quality
Touching and looking at appearance: the most intuitive feeling
Weighing ": This is a reflection of professionalism
Brand recognition and technology: the ultimate guarantee
Look at the raw materials: this is the cornerstone of quality

Normal/Poor: Use recycled materials (such as recycled plastic bottles). Although the fleece made of this material is environmentally friendly, it is short in fiber, easy to pilling and shedding, fast in thermal insulation and hard in hand feel. Excellent: Use raw materials. Long fiber, high strength, less prone to pilling and shedding, soft to the touch, and longer lasting insulation performance. Advanced (such as Polatec): using high-quality raw materials and undergoing special treatment. For example, Polartec's classic series uses long fiber polyester, which reduces the possibility of pilling from the root.

Touching and looking at appearance: the most intuitive feeling

feel

Good fleece: Soft, smooth, and rich to the touch, like caressing a furry little animal. After squeezing, it can quickly rebound and restore its fluffiness. Poor shake grain velvet: feels dry, stiff, or has a "rattling" noise. Slow response after squeezing, appearing flattened.

appearance

Good fleece: The fleece is clear, uniform, and full, with high density, and is not easily exposed to the base fabric. The fabric has a certain thickness but is very lightweight. Poor fleece: The fleece grains are messy and sparse, making it easy to see the underlying fabric, appearing thin, and prone to shedding.

Weighing ": This is a reflection of professionalism

Weight (g/m ²) is a key indicator for measuring fabric density and thickness, which directly affects warmth retention. Micro velvet (below 100g/m ²): extremely lightweight, suitable for wearing in inner layers or air-conditioned rooms in summer. Lightweight (100-200g/m ²): Suitable for dynamic activities such as running and hiking, it is a common weight for high-performance fleece jackets. Medium weight (200-300g/m ²): The most versatile, with good warmth retention, suitable for daily commuting and most outdoor activities. Weight (above 300g/m ²): Very thick and warm, close to a thin cotton jacket, but with reduced breathability, suitable for static or extremely cold environments.
Attention: High weight does not necessarily mean good. It must be a combination of high weight, high-quality materials, and good craftsmanship to achieve both warmth and lightweight durability.
