How does thermal clothing keep you warm?
Thermal clothing keeps you warm by trapping air near your body and preventing heat loss.
It’s made from materials like polyester, merino wool, fleece, or down that are good at insulating and wicking away moisture.
Trapping air
The fabric creates a layer of insulation by trapping air, which is a poor conductor of heat. This prevents heat from escaping through conduction, convection, and radiation.
Wicking away moisture
Thermal clothing is breathable and absorbs sweat from your skin, which helps prevent you from getting damp and cold.
Regulating body temperature
Thermal clothing keeps you warm in cold weather, but it’s also breathable enough to prevent overheating during physical activity.
Design features
Some thermal clothing has panels or zones that provide extra warmth to areas like your chest, back, and knees
“Brought this for my grandmother to keep her warm in the winter.
It is lovely and warm with the fleece lining,” wrote another person.
“She can wear it on top of her clothes to give her added warmth.”
“Bought this as a present that was well received. Very comfortable to wear, washes well,” said one buyer.
“I bought this as a last minute gift for my daughter who asked for one, and she seems quite happy with it,” commented another shopper.
“It’s huge and is big enough for two! Warm and good to snuggle into.”
