A Musto Fleece For Winter Warmth

By Eula Nichols


The Musto fleece was developed by a British Olympic sailor and engineer. His aim was to develop a garment that could protect sailors exposed to all sorts of weather conditions whilst out at sea. He decided to use synthetic fabric that he had to ship from America. His first garments proved to be so popular that the range grew to include those suitable for all types of outdoor activities.

For centuries natural wool was regarded as the best defense man had against cold weather. Sheep were sheared and the wool was made into yarn. The yarn was used to make jackets, coats, hats, gloves and other items that proved to be durable, resilient and soft. However, natural wool had a number of disadvantages too. It required great care when washing and drying to prevent shrinkage. The bulky garments were also heavy to wear, particularly when wet.

The manufacture of synthetic fibers brought about a complete revolution in fabrics. Synthetic fiber fleeces offered many advantages over natural fabrics. Initially, the fabrics produced were not as soft or luxurious as natural wool but this improved over the years. Washing and drying these fabrics was very easy. Advances in technology meant they could be blended to add to their versatility.

The fact that fabrics made from synthetic fibers can breathe is one of their big advantages. For those involved in outdoor activities like skiing or riding, this means that they stay dry even when exercising vigorously. Another great advantage is the fact that they are so light in weight. This means they are easy to pack, wear and even form a layer under other waterproof garments in very wet weather.

The designs of these garments are stylish but allow for complete freedom of movement at the same time. This is due to the fact the way they are constructed with elasticized backs and other features. All garments are well tested with regards to style and fit.

A number of the different collections, like the Evolution range, include warm fleeces. They come in a variety of colors like classic red, black, white and blue. Features on fleeces all add to their warmth and practicality, including lined pockets for warming hands and hoods that can be removed or adjusted.

On the company website one can view items according to activity, color and technology used. Images of the garments can be carefully examined. The garments are also sold by a number of other companies, including those selling equestrian gear, sailing gear and country clothing. Some of them offer deals like free delivery if a specific amount of money is spent on the site.

A Musto fleece is the garment of choice for many outdoor enthusiasts who appreciate its comfort, warmth and stylishness. It enables them to perform rigorous outdoor activities while staying warm at the same time. The sporty designs make them look good whether they are doing yard work, riding, sailing, taking a stroll in the country or attending a sporting event.
