GUARANTEED LIFE SPAN OF 2 YEARS: We test the ageing of our hiking fleeces to guarantee their durability. We guarantee: - resistance to wear from backpacks and moving arms to delay the appearance of pilling which is specific to this material - the solidity of the seams - the resistance of the fleece material after several washes - colour-fastness after washing, when exposed to UV or in contact with perspiration. WHERE DO OUR FLEECES COME FROM?: Designed in our international design centre at the foot of Mont Blanc, in France, this fleece cardigan is then made by our suppliers in China and Vietnam. We collaborate closely with these partners who have real expertise in the manufacture of our fleeces. Thanks to this relationship of trust with our industrial partners, we can create high-quality technical products.
