Fleece comes in many types, each with its own set of features and use cases, so knowing them ahead of time can help you choose the right one. Below are the 4 most common fleece fabrics.
Coral fleece and polar fleece are often confused with each other, although they are quite different. The main difference between the two is that coral fleece is thicker and fuzzier than polar fleece. Coral fleece is very soft in texture, and although preferred by many, it is more expensive than other types of wool. Often used as baby blanket fabric
Microfleece is the lightest, thinnest, and most popular type of wool. It wicks away moisture and has a soft, plush texture that's gentle on the skin. Compared to other types of fleece, microfleece ranks last in thermal insulation but first in breathability, making it the best type of fleece for high-output activities in mild weather. Commonly used in lightweight outdoor clothing and performance clothing
Cotton and cotton-blend polar fleece, such as micro fleece, are also popular types of polar fleece. As the name suggests, lint is made from cotton, while cotton-blend lint is made from a blend of cotton and other fibers. They are usually smooth on the outside and plush on the inside, making them a very comfortable fabric. Their porosity also dissipates heat more easily than other types of fleece. Often used in sportswear such as T-shirts, sweatpants, and shorts
Polar fleece is considered one of the more economical types of fleece. It has two notable features: one is that it does not easily allow moisture to evaporate, and the other is that it is available in a variety of colors. Polar fleece, while thicker than microfleece, is not as soft as other types of fleece. However, it is very effective at keeping warm in cold weather. Often used in blankets and winter clothing such as jackets, coats, and gloves
