How to choose a women's fleece jacket?
To choose the perfect women's fleece jacket, start by identifying your needs. Depending on the season, the intensity of the activity and your sensitivity to the cold, the choice of a warm women's fleece jacket will vary. We help you make the right decision.
If you're looking for a model for the cold days, opt for a warm fleece with a high density (g/m²) and a brushed interior. For a dynamic activity, choose a more technical, breathable, featuring a stretch fabric, which wicks moisture while keeping you dry. The many pockets are handy for storing your accessories and personal belongings.
A comfortable fleece depends on the quality of the materials as well as the cut. A well-designed mountain hiking fleece follows your movements without restricting your range of motion. Pay attention to the details: a stand-up collar protects the neck from wind, adjusted cuffs limit heat loss, a full-length zip closure allows temperature regulation. The size plays an essential role. Choose a size that allows you to layer a technical base layer underneath your outfit. To find the right piece for you, feel free to sort and filter our different categories. You can also contact our customer service team who will help you with your search.

What are the benefits of a fleece jacket?
A fleece jacket offers many benefits for outdoor activities. Its main asset lies in its insulating power. The synthetic fibre used in fleeces retains warm air close to the body, even in damp conditions. The other key advantage concerns the comfort. The materials are soft, flexible and comfortable to wear. The lightweight and compact nature of this jacket means you can slip it into a backpack, ready to pull on at the first sign of a chill.
Fleece remains warm, but also practical : it dries quickly, resists abrasion and retains its thermal properties even after many washes. It also offers a useful lightweight wind-resistant effect. Wear it for any activity in outer : hiking, nordic walking, camping, bivvy or travel. While fleeces are primarily designed as mid layers for insulation, some of our jackets offer enough protection to serve as an outer layer in mild conditions. However, they will not replace a waterproof jacket in heavy rain or snow, or a women's windproof jacket if the wind is strong.
How do you care for a fleece?
For care for your garment, follow a few simple rules. The washing is done by machine at 30 °C on a delicate cycle. Use a standard detergent, without fabric softener, which could damage the fibres and reduce the thermal properties of the fabric. Avoid the tumble dryer. Lay your jacket or jumper flat to keep its shape. These precautions extend the lifespan of the materials and retain their insulating properties. A good care makes your fleece more durable. We also recommend following our tips available on each product page or in ourcare dedicated.
What types of fleece jackets are there?
There are several types of fleece jackets, each suited to a specific use. The gilet sleeveless fleece is a great thermal addition for the shoulder season or cool mornings. It layers easily over a technical base layer. The hooded sweatshirt offers greater versatility. This relaxed fleece brings warmth and style while protecting the head and neck from draughts. Full-length zip zipped versions allow the jacket to open fully to release excess heat or adjust ventilation.
The micro-fleece is suited to intense activities or changeable conditions. Thin, lightweight and breathable, it slips under a waterproof layer. In contrast, the sherpa provides enhanced insulation thanks to its wool-effect structure, ideal for cold temperatures and low-intensity activities.
