Fleece

Another product article for Nepal 🙂 - this time it is about fleece sweaters. Fleece sweaters are mid-layer. You have three layers:

  • Base Layer: On your skin
  • Mid Layer: Insulation
  • Outer Layer: Against wind / rain / snow

Meaning the fleece is not meant to be wind or water proof, but to keep you warm. I will use it for trekking. They don't insulate as well as down; I think I will use them on the hike. The down is more for when I don't move.

Polartec Thermal Pro-Fleece seems to be a common material, Nanuk is the version from Jack Wolfskin.
