Microfleece

sandy saunders said:

Shopping in one of Asdas Walmart store yesterday and came across
Microfleeces on a Ski clothing section. Long sleeved, zipped neck and
advertised as:

Dynamic temperature control,

Where's the knob ?

Quoted message said:

Lightweight base layer that moves with the body,

As opposed to layers that move in other directions ?

Quoted message said:

Quick drying.

Okay, I'll concede that one.

I think I need some of this "technical" gear ;-)

As opposed to layers that don't stretch and bend the way your body does.
Compare and contrast a pair of tights to a pair of jeans: one moves
with the body, the other sits there and has the body move independently
of it.

However, I wouldn't call microfleece particularly stretchy...

Not found it yet .................. but the control would have been OK
Sunday if it hadn't been so mild!

Only passing on info from the label ....

No rain yesterday, so cannot confirm that (although I was sweating a little
clearing leaves etc for a couple of hours in the afternoon while wearing it)

Compare to the price of 'brand names' ASDA George line is excellent value
..... and I am not an employee!

Mike Brockhurst added - I wear George jerseys- I'm not proud - and they are
much more comfortable (and better fitting - makes me look like a male
model!) than the more expensive lines I was previously buying. I will
definitely give Sandy's Microfleece a good inspection next time I'm at ASDA.
