Polyester fleece of many types, which is sold generically as polypro and also as Coolmax, Thermax, Polartec, Capilene, etc. THE place to get fleece with out getting fleeced is Sierra Trading Post http://www.sierratradingpost.com, or more specifically (this is gonna wrap something awful) http://www.sierratradingpost.com/prod_list_display.asp?dept%5Fid=L1%7E190&dept%5Fname%5Fp=Men%27s+Clothing&mscssid=HW43AS947WKP9MAJDXA70DRQC81587G2 Polartec is really good stuff, but I also have a couple of non-branded fleece shirts from STP that are really warm. You can buy Patagucci if you insist, but $20 per piece is my top limit, and I mostly pay $8-$12 for a top or bottom. Wash it cold and air dry it or use low heat and no fabric softener. And it'll still have a lingering odor, probably, which will allow other paddlers to identify you even if you're not wearing your PW t-shirt. -- Steve *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
