Polartec offers an astonishing 550+ material patterns! Don’t miss out on more than just fleece!
Polartec produces more than 550 fabrics. Fleece is one of the most iconic Polartec fabrics, but the company also produces many other fabrics with superior functionality. Here we excerpt some of them and introduce two types of fabrics that have been developed by making full use of the know-how accumulated to date.
Polartec’s “NeoShell” with amazing breathability
NeoShell” is a next-generation technical material originally developed by Polartec. Conventional shell materials have a two-layer structure consisting of a fleece insulation layer and a waterproof/breathable shell, but this NeoShell has excellent breathability, abrasion resistance, and elasticity with only one layer. Regardless of outside temperature or humidity, it releases moisture inside to support comfortable activities. The “SUBDUED” “Maverick Jacket” in this material is a stylish mountain parka specification. All seams are taped with waterproof tape to enhance the waterproof function. The relaxed silhouette gives the jacket an “in-demand” feel and makes it a great item for urban street style.

Alpha” boasts consistent temperature control
Alpha,” which is also used by the U.S. Special Forces, is a highly functional material that uses the latest technology to regulate the temperature inside the garment. By sandwiching gauze-like polyester padding between the fabrics, the material can regulate temperature by discharging excess heat when it is hot and retaining heat when it is cold. This is a revolutionary material that maintains a constant temperature during hard activities such as mountain climbing, when body temperatures fluctuate greatly. Marmot’s “Alpha Kit Jacket,” which incorporates this material, features a classic design with a collar. The military-inspired ruggedness is also a point that tickles men’s fancy.
