Men's Fleece

Keep cold weather at bay in lasting comfort. Our iconic men’s fleece jackets from The North Face help keep you warm in winter weather.

Fleece material is a type of polyester that is warm yet lightweight. It is also usually moisture-wicking, because it allows moisture to evaporate more effectively than most heavy jackets.  

The North Face men’s fleece collection features a variety of fabric staples, including microfleece, which is popular for performance outerwear. Polar fleece tends to be thicker and is a popular choice for blankets and jackets. High-pile fleece is sought out for its unique look and soft feel, but it tends to be heavier.  

At The North Face, our men's fleece models include jackets, pullovers, and vests designed to offer lightweight warmth in cold conditions. We offer polar fleece, high-pile fleece, and low-pile styles, including our FUTUREFLEECE™ technical fleece collection.  

Fleece material is typically synthetic (a type of polyester) that is warm yet lightweight and designed to mimic the warmth and texture of sheep's wool. It is also usually moisture-wicking because it allows moisture to evaporate better than most heavy jackets.

There are several types of fleece available including microfleece and grid fleece which are low or no pile and are popular for performance outerwear.  Polar fleece tends to be thicker and is a popular choice for blankets and jackets. It is typically a medium pile material.  Sherpa fleece, synonymous with high pile fleece, more closely resembles the fuzzy nap of sheep's wool.  High pile is sought out for its unique look and the soft feel, but it tends to be heavier.

Fleece jackets and vests for men are a great choice in cold temperatures because you can layer them over long-sleeve shirts or under larger jackets. The material does have some hydrophobic properties, which means it can handle some dampness and dries quickly. However, it is not truly waterproof. Once fleece is soaking wet, it no longer provides insulation for warmth. Because of this, it may not be the best choice in heavy rain or snow. 
 

For everyday style, a fleece pullover can be a polished step up from a basic men's hoodie. Hoodies tend to be more casual, while a fleece can look more like a sweater even when paired with casual pants or jeans. With a wide range of colors available, you're sure to find something to fit your style in our selection. 

At The North Face, our best-selling men's fleece jackets and pullovers are in our Denali collection. Our Men's Denali Jacket is a true icon, with a relaxed fit and water-repellent finish. The material itself is fully-recycled Polartec® fleece.  

For a slim-fit performance tech fleece, look no further than The North Face FUTUREFLEECE™ with innovative technology that uses a full-loop fabric to minimize weight and help optimize body temperature. The Men's Summit Series FUTUREFLEECE™ Full-Zip Hoodie, for example, is designed to be worn over a baselayer or under more insulated outerwear and has a pre-tensioned hood that fits under a helmet.

Two additional popular collections of fleece at TNF include Yumiori and Glacier.  Yumiori fleece is designed for in-between temperatures like those during fall and spring.  It's an ultra-soft collection of midweight, high-pile jackets, pullovers, and vests.  Glacier, on the other hand, is our lightweight fleece designed to be quick-drying, breathable, and easily layered.
