How warm is the Frontiersman compared with a standard fleece?

It uses 10.2 oz. spun polyester fleece, which is heavier than typical casual fleece. Expect it to work as an outer layer in cool weather and as a mid-layer in cold.

Will the fleece pill over time?

The fabric is sold as anti-pilling Panda fleece. That treatment slows the fuzzing and small knots that show up on ordinary fleece after repeated washing.

What are the nylon panels for?

Nylon covers the front and back yoke, the back forearms and the bottom hem. Those are the spots that rub against pack straps, desks and gear, so the panels add durability there.

No. It is a collared fleece jacket without a hood, so pair it with a hat or a hooded shell in wet or windy conditions.

Can it be embroidered with a company logo?

Yes. The jacket includes the EMB-AXS system, which is designed to make clean embroidery placement easier for uniforms and team gear.

How should I wash it?

Turn it inside out and wash cold on a gentle cycle, then tumble low or hang dry. Avoid fabric softener, which coats fleece fibers and reduces their loft.

Our take on the AFC Men's Frontiersman 7450 Panda Fleece Jacket Performance Coat

The AFC Frontiersman is a heavyweight 10.2 oz. spun polyester fleece jacket built for cold-weather work and outdoor wear. Its anti-pilling Panda fleece resists the fuzzing that wears out cheaper fleece, and nylon panels on the front and back yoke, back forearms and hem add abrasion resistance where it matters. Chest and side zippered pockets, elastic-bound cuffs, a drawstring hem with cord locks and a slight drop tail round it out. It sits above light fashion fleece on durability and weight, closer to workwear than a casual layer.
