Materials:

• The entire jacket, including the main body, collar, and placket, is made from 100% recycled polyester fleece. This synthetic material is obtained from recycled sources, such as plastic bottles, reducing reliance on virgin petroleum and minimizing environmental impact.
• Polyester fleece fabric stands out for its excellent warmth-to-weight ratio, providing effective thermal insulation without adding excessive bulk. It is a hydrophobic material, meaning it repels moisture, does not absorb water, and dries quickly, keeping the user drier and more comfortable during physical activity. Furthermore, it is very durable, resistant to pilling, and soft to the touch.
