A Matter of Fabrics
Polartec® fleece is primarily made of recycled polyester, made from recycled plastic water bottles. Its materials are known for durability, toughness and longevity. At Passenger we think your fleece should feel and perform the same, even after a good few years of use.
It’s why we seek out material partners who recognise the benefit of higher-quality, durable materials. We also recommend investing in a Guppy Friend Washing Bag, which will help your fleece last longer.

Why We Use It
Out there amongst the tall trees and trail markers, escaping from the humdrum if only for a few minutes. Time and time again. Polartec® continuously tweaks and tests their fleece to make sure it's built to last years of wandering.
Polartec® was the first to bring a recycled fleece to market in the early 90s, an innovative approach to business that’s still apparent in how they run things today. We've worked with them to bring Polartec® fleece to our core range, staple layers that seamlessly slip into your hike, run, bike, or vanlife wardrobe.
