Over the years, brands have tried to make flannel warmer, softer, or more technical. Most fixes solved one problem but created another.
⛔ QUILTED LININGS
🚫 Too bulky to move comfortably
🔴 Feels heavy and stiff when layered
❌ Traps heat with little airflow
⚠️ Slow to dry once damp
⛔ TRADITIONAL FLEECE LININGS
❌ Absorbs water instead of wicking it
🚫 Gains weight and loses shape when damp
🔴 Dries slowly in cold conditions
⚠️ Stops insulating once soaked
⛔ SHERPA LININGS
🔴 Overheats with any movement
🚫 Traps sweat against the skin
❌ Blocks airflow completely
⚠️ Feels clammy and uncomfortable over time
We wanted warmth that moves with you, not against you.
GX2™ Thermal Fleece uses a raised grid pattern that holds warmth in small pockets while open channels move moisture away from the skin.
The result is steady, balanced warmth that stays light, dries fast, and never feels stifling.
GX2™ THERMAL FLEECE IS A STRUCTURED WAFFLE-KNIT THAT MANAGES WARMTH AND AIRFLOW.
BREATHABILITY
Allows steady airflow to prevent overheating during movement.
HEAT RETENTION
Raised grid structure traps warmth in small pockets.
MOISTURE CONTROL
Open channels move sweat and moisture away from the skin and base layer.
LIGHTWEIGHT
Insulates without the weight or bulk of traditional fleece.
