Thermal Grid Fleece|217GSM|AF0058 - Alibric Knit Sourcing

One-Line Value Proposition

A 217gsm grid fleece with smooth face and textured grid back—featuring thermo-regulating yarns and cotton-like softness for breathable warmth during high-output activities.

Product Description

This technical grid fleece features a smooth, durable face for clean layering and a textured grid back designed to optimize and regulate body temperature. The patented grid construction traps warm air when needed, while the open channels between grids allow excess heat to escape during high-output activities, keeping you comfortable across varying exertion levels .

The innovative thermo-regulating yarns work dynamically with your body—absorbing heat when temperatures rise and releasing warmth when you need it. Combined with 79% cotton-like elastic yarns, this fabric delivers exceptional softness and comfort while maintaining the performance characteristics of technical fleece .

At 217gsm, this lightweight mid-weight fabric offers an ideal warmth-to-weight ratio, making it highly compressible and packable for travel and outdoor adventures . The bi-component knit technology efficiently wicks moisture away from the skin, transferring it to the outer surface for rapid evaporation, keeping you dry and focused during intense pursuits .

The unique grid construction promotes air circulation, while the grid pattern itself creates tiny air pockets that trap warmth, enhancing breathability and wicking capabilities . This thermodynamic performance ensures you stay comfortable whether you're climbing, hiking, or simply going about your day.

Whether for trail running, climbing, ski touring, or everyday layering, this 217gsm grid fleece delivers the adaptive warmth, superior breathability, and cotton-like comfort that active outdoor enthusiasts demand.
