Fleece Vests

The fleece vest is sure to be a staple in any winter wardrobe ensemble. Both practical and versatile, fleece vests add both warmth and style to your ensemble. There are vests available for men, women and children. You will find lightweight fleece, medium weight fleece and heavyweight fleece in stores, catalogs and online. Fleece is usually made from the wool of sheep or ram, but is sometimes also made from other materials as well. You'll find vests appropriate for fashion wear, a wildlife expedition or even the ski clothes.

Make sure you chek out Polartec as they are the leader in the arena of fleece. They have the distinction of being the original inventor and manufacturer of synthetic fleece and their company now makes 300 different types of synthetic fabrics for many different types of conditions. For example, Polartec makes lightweight tops and bottoms to be worn under heavier clothing. They also make a wide variety of jackets, coats, hats, and even fire resistant apparel for the military. And of course, they have vests for every outdoor application imaginable. While you can find their products in stores, their website is a helpful resource if you want an introduction to their company and what they offer.

Ariat is another leader in the fleece industry. Their Kenora vest is a hit with ladies because of its superior craftsmanship and stylish appearance. It is available in sea blue, navy or barn red. Sizes range from XS to XXL so there is something for every figure. The vest has insulated corduroy textured poly fleece. It comes with cute kangaroo pockets to keep your hands warm and an attached hood. The contrast stitching adds visual interest to the vest, which is perfect for pairing with your favorite denim jeans.

The wonderful thing about fleece is that you can find all kinds of different styles and colors, which makes fleece very popular. When shopping for a fleece vest consider how you will be wearing it. Are you looking for something to wear with casual everyday clothing or do you want something for a wilderness adventure? For camping and hiking in cold conditions you'll need a much heavier fleece than you would for running errands in the winter. Regardless of your needs you'll find a world of selection by shopping online and also comparing products in your favorite stores. If you're looking for a bargain, check Ebay, secondhand shops or watch your preferred retailers for clearance sales.
