The 'MEC '82 Polar Fleece Pullover' is the product of combining MEC's iconic style of apparel with Polartec's innovative insulating technology. The fleece used in this pullover is Polartec's 'Thermal Pro' fleece, which provides a winter-ready combination of warmth and breathability at a low weight. This pullover was released in celebration of 'International Mountain Day' which is December 11th.
MEC has been working with Polartec for over 40 years to deliver stylish, functional, and comfortable clothing for all seasons. This fleece pullover is the product of this experience. The polar fleece pullover is available in silver with a copper trim or in uniform black. The sweater also features a large kangaroo pocket and a zipper that extends halfway down the torso.
On top of this, $10 from each pullover purchased before the end of December 13th will be donated to 'Leave No Trace Canada,' a non-profit organization focused on promoting outdoor recreation.
