What are the characteristics of a fleece?
A fleece of quality has several characteristics essential. Thethermal insulation remains the priority. Thanks to a structure of specific synthetic fibres, the fleece retains body heat while remaining lightweight. The fleece breathability plays a key role. A breathable fleece efficiently wicks away moisture produced by perspiration to prevent the feeling of dampness and chilling. This mechanism helps maintain a comfortable microclimate during activity.
A good fleece offers a optimal comfort that comes from the materials used. The softness and flexibility of the fabric prevent irritation. The ergonomic cut guarantees unrestricted freedom of movement. Finally, a lightweight fleece can be easily compressed. It fits into your hiking backpack without adding weight to your kit, making long outings easier.
How do I choose a men's fleece?
To choosing a men's fleece, take into account several criteria that define the ideal fleece jacket according to your use. The first criterion is comfort. Opt for a fleece comfortable and soft, which accompanies you without restriction during your activities. Choosing quality materials plays a decisive role. CIMALP selects high-performance, durable synthetic fibres that are kind to your skin.
Next, define your thermal insulation needs. A warm fleece suits hiking in cool or wintry conditions, while a finer version is suited to demanding sports such as trail. Lightweight remains a significant advantage. A lightweight fleece slips easily into your backpack. It protects you without weighing down your outfit. You can wear it under a men's windproof jacket.
Also consider the cut and technical details according to your use: presence of a stand-up collar, a full zipped fastening, secured pockets. These elements enhance your on-trail experience. Finally, consider adding a waterproof jacket as a third layer if the weather is rainy, as fleeces offer no protection against moisture.

How do I care for a men's fleece?
Theregular care of your men's fleece is straightforward and essential for preserving the performance and lifespan of your garment. Opt for washing your fleece at a low temperature, ideally 30°C, to avoid damaging the synthetic fibres. Use a gentle detergent, free from harsh agents. Do not use fabric softener, as it alters the technical properties. For fleece longevity, dry your garment in the open air, laid flat or hung up, away from direct heat sources.
Avoid the tumble dryer, which weakens the fibres and compromises the elasticity of the fabric. Follow our care instructions to preserve the properties of synthetic materials. A well-cared-for fleece retains its shape, softness and insulating capacity over time.
