Production of technical fleece for hunting and outdoor use
Fleece is a key midlayer in modern hunting and outdoor apparel and functions as an active part of the layering system. While fleece was previously used primarily as a simple insulating layer, today’s technical fleece is developed with a focus on thermal regulation, freedom of movement and mechanical stability. At CD Company, we work with advanced fleece constructions where material technology, surface structure and bonding play a decisive role in overall performance.
Our approach to fleece is based on practical use in the field. The materials must provide insulation without causing overheating, perform during constant movement and retain their shape and function over time. We therefore use technical bonded fleece constructions that combine flexibility, durability and structural stability, making them suitable for both hunting and active outdoor use.
Through our private label setup, we offer fleece solutions that can be tailored to different types of hunting, activity levels and climatic conditions — from lightweight midlayers to more robust fleece jackets with greater structural support.
Here, CD Company presents an example of a technical fleece jacket
Technical zip-up fleece jacket for active hunting and outdoor use
This technical zip-up fleece jacket is developed as a functional midlayer for active use, where freedom of movement, comfort and temperature regulation are essential. The jacket features a bonded fleece construction that provides a stable and durable structure while keeping the material soft and flexible in use.
The internal honeycomb structure of the fleece creates air pockets that provide effective thermal insulation without adding unnecessary weight. The outer fabric’s mélange finish and matte surface give the jacket a subtle, technical appearance suited to hunting and outdoor environments, where low visual reflection and a discreet look are an advantage.
Material Technology and Functional Specifications
The fleece is developed with a focus on stable performance during active use. The bonded fleece construction ensures that the material retains its shape, even with repeated use and strain, making it well suited as a reliable midlayer in a layering system.
Technical Data Sheet
- Construction: Bonded fleece, 300 g/m²
- Inner surface: Honeycomb-structured fleece for improved thermal regulation
- Outer fabric: Mélange effect with a matte finish
- Flexibility: Soft and flexible construction that supports freedom of movement
- Closure: Full-length zip
- Pockets: Zipped chest pocket for secure storage
- Use: Active hunting, outdoor activities and as a technical midlayer
The material composition is selected to provide a good balance between warmth, breathability and freedom of movement, which is essential during prolonged physical activity.
Industrial Added Value: Stable Construction and a functional midlayer
This fleece jacket represents a functional and scalable solution for brands looking for a technical midlayer with broad applicability. The bonded construction gives the product a longer service life compared with traditional fleece constructions and helps reduce deformation over time.
As a midlayer, the jacket works optimally in combination with both baselayers and outer layers, contributing to a flexible clothing system that can be adapted to changing activity levels and temperatures. This makes the product well suited to collections where functionality, comfort and durability are key priorities.
The honeycomb-structured inner surface also contributes to more controlled air circulation close to the body, helping reduce the risk of overheating during high activity. This makes the fleece jacket particularly suitable for hunting and outdoor activities where intensity and temperature vary throughout the day, and where a stable and responsive midlayer is essential to the overall performance of the clothing system.
From Technical Insulation to a Finished Collection: Bring Your Private Label Vision to Life
Understanding midlayer technology and proper thermoregulation is the foundation of any successful outdoor or hunting collection. As outlined above, this is where the balance between breathability and thermal protection is determined. At CD Company, we do not view a midlayer simply as an insulating component, but as an integrated part of an advanced layering system in which material selection and technical construction must work seamlessly together.
Through our comprehensive private label setup, we give your brand access to the latest technologies in high-loft insulation, moisture-wicking fleece and hybrid textile combinations. We support you throughout the entire process, from initial technical product development and sourcing of certified materials to final precision manufacturing. By choosing us as your partner, you ensure that your midlayers not only complement the rest of your collection visually, but also deliver strong technical performance in the most demanding environments.
