 Fleece is a great fabric for providing warmth and wicking away moisture. It is made from polyester so it doesn't retain any water. It is spun so that it's fibers trap air and hold heat in. Wear a fleece jacket underneath a waterproof overcoat and you can venture out in truly crummy weather.
Some fleeces like SofShell and Windbloc have a fleece layer and a laminate or denser layer to block wind. These have proven to be very popular as 3 season jackets.
Although Polartec was the original fleece fabric manufacturer, there are many fleece fabrics on the market. Unfortunately many of these inferior fleeces pill, fade and do not hold up very well to use and washings. We carry Polartec fleece and a couple more that we've tested to make sure they don't pill with washing and last with reasonable use.
