Keep Cosy With Bernard Weatherill’s
Polartec Fleece Range
POLARTEC’S popular Polartec
Classic 200 fleece now features in
iconic British sporting brand, Ber-
nard Weatherill’s range of men’s
and women’s fleeces.
Original creators of the fleece
back in 1981, Polartec’s Classic
200 fabric boasts being a superior
insulating technology, without the
weight. The lofted fibre structure
creates thermal air pockets to
prevent heat loss and regulate
core warmth. A breakthrough in
design construction, the fleece is
highly weather resistant, durable
and yet soft to the touch.
The double-sided face gives
fleece the versatility to integrate
with layering systems – this
means it can be worn directly
against the skin, or on top of
other fabrics. Its hydrophobic
properties enhance the ability
to repel water, resist saturation
and dry quickly. Polartec Classic
200 fleece is also easy care and
pill-resistant.
Bernard Weatherill’s Polartec
fleece range features the Classic
200 fabric throughout the garment
and with both women’s and men’s
fleeces available in a variety of
designs, there’s guaranteed to be
something whatever your style.
