How to choose warm fabrics for winter

 

As the cold wind blows, warm clothing becomes a necessity, but the key to the insulation effect lies in the fabric. The concepts of "thermal storage velvet" and "warm cotton" in the market are complex. Today, we will list 8 winter core insulation fabrics, ranging from natural materials to technological fabrics, to help you make precise choices.

 

Natural Warmth Ceiling: A Comfortable Choice with Its Own Temperature

 

cashmere
Soft Gold

 

Taken from the belly of a goat, the fiber diameter is only 14-16 microns, the hollow structure has a temperature locking ability 1.5-2 times that of wool, and is lightweight without any pressure. Choose and identify the "cashmere" logo, with a content of over 95% for the best insulation effect. Do not confuse it with "sheep wool" (fine wool).

 

 

wool
better cost-performance ratio

 

Australian Merino wool has become mainstream due to its slender fibers and good elasticity. Its scale structure forms a warm air layer, which is excellent in moisture absorption and sweat wicking. Choose wool clothing based on the count. The higher the count, the finer and softer the fiber. A 120 count wool coat is more suitable for a snug fit than an 80 count one.

 

 

down
Goose down is superior to duck down

 

Velvet buds are large, with high fluffiness (600-800FP), strong temperature locking, and minimal odor. High quality down jackets should have a velvet content of over 90% and a filling capacity of 150-250 grams (depending on size), paired with a windproof polyester fiber outer layer, which can withstand temperatures below -10 ℃.

 

 

Technology Empowers Warmth: Lightweight and Cold Resistant 'Black Technology' Fabric

 

Fleece is made of polyester fiber, while fleece is suitable for inner lining home clothes. Lamb fleece is warm, close to wool, and washable. After modification, the warmth retention of "cationic fleece" is improved by 3-5 ℃, and the hand feel is more delicate, making it the preferred choice for sports enthusiasts.

cotton wadding

 

Down cotton is a mixture of polyester fiber and hollow cotton filling material, which keeps warm and is close to down. Its price is only 1/3, and it is not easy to drill down and is machine washable. Choose products with a fluffiness of 400-500FP and quick rebound when pressed to avoid clumping and inferior products.

 

 

Each niche fabric has its own advantages and unique features in the field of warmth preservation
Camel wool is rarer than cashmere

 

Camel wool is more rare than cashmere. The belly wool of camels has a high hollow degree, providing twice the warmth of cashmere. It is wear-resistant and wrinkle resistant, making it suitable for cold regions. True camel hair has a warm and moist texture, burns without any plastic smell, and can be used to distinguish authenticity.

 

 

Bamboo charcoal fiber
