Fleece component: Insulation provided by the air trapped inside
The purpose of the fleece component is to trap air thanks to the volume created by its texture (qualified as 'brushed' when it consists of loops); this air acts as a natural insulator, keeping the body warm.
Guaranteed to last 2 years
We test the ageing of our hiking fleeces to guarantee their durability. We guarantee:
- resistance to rubbing from the rucksack and moving arms, to delay the appearance of pilling
- strength of the stitching
- resistance of the fleece fabric after 5 washes (size stability)
- colour fastness after washing, under UV light and when in contact with perspiration.
