-Advantages of fleece are that it is:
-Soft and comfortable to wear.
-Very warm and provides warmth without weighing a lot.
-Hydrophobic, holding less than 1% of its weight in water when fully soaked and simultaneously highly breathable. Due to this, water vapor from perspiration passes through
readily and little is held within the fleece. This makes it a good choice for physical activities where sweating is likely to occur.
-Can be considered environmentally friendly as it can be made from recycled plastic PET bottles.
-Machine washable and dries quickly. Specific washing instructions include cold or cool water (no more than 30–40°C), line-dry, and do not iron.
-A good alternative for those who are allergic or sensitive to wool.
-Dries very quickly and retains much of its insulation capability even when it is wet, because of its hydrophobic properties.
