THE BLACK DIAMOND FLEECE GUIDE

No matter the pursuit, fleece is a foundational part of a cold-weather layering system.

At Black Diamond, we developed three distinct fleece families to provide lightweight warmth and breathability while you get after it. Each family uses different fabric types picked specifically for different pursuits, while utilizing sustainable fabrics and manufacturing processes.

Whether you need a cozy layer for a campfire hang on a climbing trip or a performance midlayer on a ski expedition, our designers made each style with different mountain objectives in mind, from technical missions to active lifestyles.
