Zhik Polartec Full Zip Fleece Jacket – Recycled Microfleece

Description

While the Zhik Full Zip Fleece uses naturally water repelling materials to keep you dry from the outside, it’s also highly breathable to ensure moisture is wicked away from your body keeping you warm, comfortable and dry. The Zhik full zip fleece has evolved some subtle features based on learnings over many years of developing midlayers in the harshest sailing conditions on the globe. These subtle features add up to make a big difference day to day.

One of those features is Polartec recycled 159gsm fleece. When designing this fleece, Zhik knew it would be used for one main reason, to keep you warm. The 159gsm gives you extra insulation over a standard fleece ensuring maximum warmth when you need it but is lightweight to reduce bulk.

 

Features:

  • Super soft Polartec 100% recycled microfleece provides warmth without weight
  • Made from recycled materials
  • Highly breathable – high pile surface provides superior insulation
  • Fine cut fleece feels smooth to the touch
  • Suitable as a mid-layer or stand-alone jacket
  • The tightly knit microfleece is highly durable, holding its form after extended use

MICROFLEECE FABRIC TECHNOLOGY

Polartec fleece is primarily made of post-consumer recycled polyester from recycled water bottles. They were the first to bring a recycled fleece to market in the early 90s and have worked to increase their use of recycled and other sustainable materials since then. Premium polyester yarns are used for their hydrophobic properties, to repel moisture and speed dry times. The lofted structures create thermal air pockets to retain warmth, and still allow optimal breathability. That’s why Polartec synthetic fleece is still the most dependable, versatile fabric around.
