Can tell from the feel it will last forever. Super nice and warm. Very comfortable with just a shirt underneath in mid 40s to even mid 30s if it’s not too windy.

I’m 5’10” 170lbs and get on well with a size large.

1st rate fleece

Best fleece I have now ! It is definitely warm, fits well, has just the right flexibility, and the pockets seem to be just the right size. Personally, I like how the breast pocket zipper is just a bit bigger than other large retail suppliers. This one easily fits your smartphone without sliding it in awkwardly. The quarter zip is also a bit deeper, which helps you dump heat if you are hiking harder in cool or cold weather. Finally, it’s just comfortable for being lazy at home after a day of being active.

Ultimate fleece!

I've had the previous model for a year now. Great design, craftsmanship. The patch is a bit worn but everything else is still like new . Oh yeah, and t's warm, which of course is important, especially here in Sweden.

I started Saint Javelin with hopes of raising $500 by selling stickers to help out Ukrainians under the threat of a full scale invasion.

Then Feb 24th changed millions of peoples lives. Saint Javelin has donated over $2M to support frontline defenders, purchase medical and protective gear (IFAKs, tourniquets) and support humanitarian efforts required in Ukraine.
