The Development Of The Musto Fleece Range

By Eula Nichols


Keith Musto, a British Olympic sailor, originally developed this brand, aiming for a product that could keep sailors warm and dry in all weather conditions. His attention was caught by a synthetic fabric being produced in America and he shipped a container of it out to the UK. This was used to create his first garments. The Musto fleece is extremely popular today and has grown to include many garments suited for all types of outdoor activities.

Natural fibers such as cotton and wool have been used for centuries for making garments. Wool was used for cold weather items like jumpers and coats. It proved to be resilient, warm and soft. However, it also had some disadvantages, particularly for those spending much of their time outdoors. If it became wet, it did not dry easily, feeling heavy and uncomfortable. Washing and drying woolen garments has to be done with caution as it shrinks easily.

The introduction of synthetic fibers changed things considerably. Now fleeces could be made with fabrics like polyester. These fabrics had a number of advantages over natural fabrics. For example, they could be washed and dried very easily without shrinkage. Synthetic fibers can be blended together as well, offering great versatility.

The breathable nature of synthetic fibers is of great benefit to those who are active outdoors like riders and skiers. This quality means that moisture surrounding the body is wicked out, leaving them dry. If they get wet in showers of rain, they dry extremely quickly. The fact that they are lightweight means that they can form a layer under another protective coat.

The designs of these garments are stylish but allow for complete freedom of movement at the same time. This is due to the fact the way they are constructed with elasticized backs and other features. All garments are well tested with regards to style and fit.

There are a great selection of warm fleeces in red, white, blue, classic red and black from the Zara Phillips, Signature and Evolution collections. The features on these garments are all designed to add to their practicality, such as hoods that can be adjusted or removed, front zippers with roll over chin guards and lined hand warmer pockets.

The company website offers information about styles, colors and sizes of all garments as well as providing an insight into the origins of this brand and the innovative technologies it uses. The garments are also available at other online stores. It is important to check whether these are reputable suppliers with satisfactory terms and conditions before placing orders. It is possible to find special offers and sales of these garments online.

A Musto fleece is a top of the line garment that ensures warmth, comfort and stylishness at the same time. It allows for freedom of movement while engaging in any kind of outdoor activities, from work to play. Those who spend hours outdoors in cold weather appreciate these garments that offer real protection from the cold and damp of winter.
