Is this thermal or fleece? Or is it thinner?

It is not fleece and it is very thin but it keeps you warm and very light and elegant to wear. I love this. I use it for my early morning hiking up the mountains and I also sometimes use it for dinner at a local informal restaurant. It dries so fast and moisture wicking. It is not meant to keep you warm under freezing conditions though. Hope this helps

Thinner. Read my review. It's basically see-thru it's so light. Provides almost no warmth. It's basically for looks.

I would compare it to a very soft fleece. It washes well and remains just as soft without 'pilling'.

Yes. It's like thin polar fleece. It's breathable and has convenient pockets in the back.

It is itchy. It's wool. Kept me warm in a deer stand with 9* windchill though. Heavy but warm. If you don't want itchy, find alpaca wool. Hard to find on Internet.

Very thin but sea to be durable arterial. I accidentally orders two and using both. I expected runner padding but it is a flannel-like material

Yes, its very warm but not hot - its cotton lined with fleece on the outside.

it's a lightweight comforter, quilted, one layer, not sure the exact thickness but I did add a blanket during the winter. I like it a lot but it's not heavy, I would be cold without the layer underneath.

It is the stretchy underarmour type material not fleece. Thumbs up on this one and fits good too.

It's double thickness. This makes it a little heavy but it's nice and warm.

The "blanket" is fleece like. Not too hot, not too cold. The mat itself I guess is cotton. The pillow is synthetic cotton. It does the job for both sons at their daycare. Just be sure to take the pillow out when it's thrown in the wash. And speaking of wash, it is so easy to dump it with the rest of other laundry. Quite happy with it. It's a nap mat. Some People become disappointed because they were expecting something heavy duty for the outdoors. It's not a sleeping bag. This mat goes on top of my sons cots.

Soft and warm like flannel, but they are light weight and not a heavy flannel. Kinda a micro flannel feel (if there is such a thing)

Yes it is warmer but I haven't noticed my kiddos getting too hot in it...unless we end up co sleeping in the middle of the night. Usually when I use the sleep sack I don't do a blanket sleeper and then the fleece sack. I go for something a little thinner and lightweight and then the fleece. If I put a blanket sleeper on I just opt out of the sleep sack...or I just put a long sleeve onesie on under it all. Hope this helps!

It's not fleece--definitely a velour. It's quite thick and chunky. I actually get pushed too far forward using it on the bus so I rest my arms on it in my lap. It's firmer than one I bought in the drugstore. I like them both for different reasons.

It's not nylon. It's thinner and less elastic than fleece. It does have a fuzzy feeling to the outside that's relatively quiet. My knife hanging off the belt strap made more noise clunking on things than the pack did. B

Its warm but not heavy at all. Not as thick as it looks on the picture. But its still worth it.

The warm skin is warmer than ordinary fleece. I have this and a thick traditional fleece balaclava and the warm skin is my go to in serious weather because it blocks wind better and is tight to your head. This product is a layer of fleece and a layer of tough shiny warm wind protection. I would hand wash . I've had 2 and I think my first one would have stayed thicker longer ( 2-3 years) if I had hand washed it.

Hi Elaine...Yes, IMHO, it's slightly thinner, yet obviously higher grade neoprene than many of its competitors. I genuinely can't compare it to any of the drug store brands, given that this is a higher grade material, as opposed to the plastics and polyesters, etc of those brands. It holds body heat in quite well, and is quite flexible and without bulk at the back of the knee. I'm female, and wear it under loose, "boyfriend" style jeans with no visible markings thru the pants.
