Fleece is a versatile and stylish material that helps retain heat, designed to keep you feeling comfortable for long periods of time. Unlike wool or cotton hoodies, the fleece hoodies, especially zip-up fleece jackets sustain your body's warmth close to your skin. We know that not all layers are created equal, so consider how much warmth you're looking for as well as the fit and style you want to go with when choosing the right fleece pullover or fleece sweatshirt for you.

Zip-up fleece outerwear for any weather and occasion

A Warm fleece can keep you feeling toasty and comfortable no matter where you’re headed. Choose a full-zip jacket that is hooded for those days when the weather is unpredictable or you need something to quickly throw over your day outfit. 

Our women’s fleece jackets, men’s lightweight fleece, and kids’ full-zip fleece jackets can be worn over leggings, jeans, or even light t-shirts and skirts. Fleece makes layering chic and is always on-trend. The zip-front is ideal for quick changes and accessibility. 

A fleece that takes you from day to night

From quarter-zip pullovers to half-zip jackets, and even the classic fleece vest, one of the easiest ways to wear fleece is to make it part of a minimal, formal look and accessorize for when you have plans after work. Choose a colorblock outfit over a pair of chinos for semi-casual and carry a sweater fleece for extra warmth. 

If you want to show off your footwear, wear basic sneakers that contract your zip-up fleece, or a pair of black boots would work perfectly too. If you live in a place that’s hot during the day but gets chilly at night, instead of turning to full-zip hoodie, you can pair your shorts with a lightweight fleece or fleece vest to complete the look while still staying warm.
