Fleece jumpsuit
Fleece, a synthetic fabric invented over 30 years ago, is gaining more and more fans. This material is widely used in the production of demi-season products for children, as well as women's clothing for home and leisure.
Features of the fabric
Fleece is a material that is unique in its properties. It is lightweight, elastic, durable. Even when wet, this fabric continues to retain heat. Fleece is hypoallergenic, which is important for the production of children's clothing. Fleece garments are extraordinarily soft, fluffy and delicate to the touch.
Due to the special structure of the fabric, such clothing allows the body to breathe.
Made from polyester and other man-made fibers, this synthetic material keeps you warm just like natural wool. And the very name "fleece" in translation from English means sheared sheep or goat wool.
Fleece is a popular raw material for the production of children's clothing: both summer and winter - as an underwear that warms the baby's body. As a rule, these are overalls that can be bought even for grown-ups: soft trousers and cuffs can be easily tucked without causing discomfort to the child. Comfortable and practical fleece overalls and suits are worn by women as home clothes and as an option for outdoor recreation.
However, when purchasing things from this modern material, one point must be taken into account: they should not be worn on a naked body, since this material hardly absorbs sweat. The optimal solution is thermal underwear worn under fleece clothing.

The jumpsuit does not prick, it is very pleasant to the body, weighs little and, moreover, is very practical: the material does not cause any problems with washing, does not roll up, does not shrink and does not lose its color over time. If you take your fleece jumpsuit out of your closet after a few years, it will look almost like new.
This thing will give you complete freedom of movement when walking, sports training. You can go to the forest for mushrooms in it without fear of puffs and holes. And at home, having changed into a cozy and warm fleece jumpsuit, you can completely relax and unwind. In addition, in such a neat form, guests will never take you by surprise. Pajamas are also made from fleece (often in the style of kigurumi, imitating an animal or a fairy-tale character).
Finally, you can slip your fleece clothing underneath your main clothing for warmth in severe frost.
Fleece jumpsuits, with their fairly simple cut, are often decorated with all sorts of decorative elements: embroidery, rhinestones, emblems. Each fashionista can choose the color and print to her taste. Jumpsuits are usually equipped with a cozy hood.
Fleece clothes for children are most often used as underwear in the cold season. This is a one-piece jumpsuit that fastens with a zipper, buttons or buttons, or a semi-overall, which is a pair of pants with a bib with straps and a blouse with a fastener. The sleeves and legs of such things usually have elastic bands or cuffs to keep out the cold. This is especially important when walking or when playing sports outdoors: the snow will not clog up the sleeves and legs. A baby in a fleece undercoat is neither cold nor hot, he will not fog up and. accordingly, it will not catch a cold.
And if you come to visit in the winter, then, taking off the outerwear, the baby will remain dressed in a fashionable jumpsuit of beautiful colors with bright details or funny decor.
In summer, the fleece jumpsuit can act as an independent item of the child's wardrobe. It usually has a hood (often decorated with ears) that can be worn over the head in cool weather.
Among other things, children's clothes made of jeans or corduroy are insulated with fleece. So, a warm fleece lining on jeans will allow you to wear them in the off-season without pulling on tights. And a corduroy jacket with such a heater is a wonderful autumn-spring version of outerwear for a baby.
Material
Fleece fabrics are varied in structure and thickness, which makes it possible to make various items of clothing and textiles from them. The technologies for creating this material are constantly being improved, for example, the latest development is a fleece with an anti-pilling coating (which provides enhanced wear resistance). If initially it was a highly flammable material, now this drawback is already in the past.
Also, certain types of fleece are water-repellent and anti-static treatment.
First of all, fleece comes in different weights. The thinnest (less than 100 g / m²) is called microfleece. Being extraordinarily soft, it is ideal for sewing overalls and suits for the smallest - newborn babies. Such things, as a rule, are equipped with a fastener with a stopper so that the zipper does not accidentally scratch the delicate skin of the baby. Microfleece is absolutely non-allergenic and dries extremely quickly.
The material with a slightly higher density - polar fleece - is used for the manufacture of thermal underwear, light sweatshirts, leggings. Children's mittens, socks, hats and scarves are sewn from medium-density fleece. Dense (300 g / m²) - designed for the production of warm winter clothes and textiles. And super-dense polar fleece (about 500 g / m²) is a raw material for sewing tourist clothes and equipment.
Externally, the surface of the fleece is the same on both sides. However, there are varieties in which the front part is more fluffy. Materials also differ in the height of the villi.
The composition of fleece fabrics also varies. It may include lycra (polar fleece) - such products are more wearable. Fleece with spandex for increased elasticity. Bipolar fleece has an outer layer that protects against rain and wind. The newest version of fleece is called windblock - thanks to the membrane layer located between the layers of polar fleece, the fabric reliably protects from the wind.
A special variety is wool fleece. This is a completely natural fabric, which is 100% wool. Soft and fluffy material perfectly warms the body, perfectly stretches due to its knitted texture (which allows the child to wear one size for a long time). A characteristic feature of this fabric is a muted melange color.
How to care?
Fleece items do not require any complex maintenance. They can be washed without problems (only the water temperature should not exceed 30 ° C and the use of water softeners and bleach containing chlorine is undesirable). Fleece overalls tolerate spinning at high speeds in the washing machine (up to 900 rpm), and then dry very quickly. Products do not need ironing.
As for woolen fleece, it is recommended to wash such things by hand (again at a temperature of 30 ° C) and not to twist them after washing.
