Fleece

For yacht clubs and crews, flexibility is particularly important. A crew fleece jacket can be worn in the morning over a team T-shirt, polo, shirt, or blouse and then layered under a weatherproof outer jacket when temperatures drop. This makes it possible to expand an existing team outfit without needing a completely new clothing combination for every weather condition.

Our fleece models cover different requirements. Classic fleece jackets such as the Martha Fleece Jacket Women or the Carlo II Fleece Jacket Men provide a lightweight insulating layer for crew, yacht club, and leisure. In addition, models with special material constructions and fleece jackets with a zip-in function are available. A total of four items in the category are currently marked with a zip-in option.

This function is particularly practical for yacht crews: A compatible fleece can be zipped directly into a suitable Marinepool outer jacket. The Carolina Inzip Fleece Jacket Women, for example, can be combined with compatible inshore and offshore jackets or worn separately as a lightweight insulating layer. The soft polyester material provides additional warmth without unnecessary bulk. The Luca 2 Inzip Jacket Men is also one of the corresponding men’s options in the category.

Fleece is particularly suitable for regatta teams, yacht clubs, and professional yacht crews because the products can be easily integrated into a larger team outfit. For a coordinated appearance, our fleece jackets can, for example, be combined with crew polos, technical T-shirts, team trousers, Bermuda shorts, vests, and jackets. Different women’s and men’s models allow suitable fits without losing the coordinated colour and clothing concept.

Many products from our team & crew wear can also be individually customised. Suitable fleece jackets can also incorporate club crests, yacht names, crew logos, sponsor branding, or company branding as part of the team concept. When planning the customisation, we take the position, size, and base material of the patch into account so that pockets, zips, and functional details are not unnecessarily affected.

When purchasing fleece jackets for teams, material thickness and thermal performance should therefore not be the only factors considered. The intended use, suitable women’s and men’s versions, combination with existing crew wear, and possible customisation are equally important. For teams that regularly wear fleece under an outer jacket, lightweight and low-bulk models are particularly suitable. If the jacket is mainly worn at the yacht club, at events, or while travelling, the feel of the material, fit, and suitability as a standalone garment may be more important.

Our fleece jackets therefore make it possible to equip a crew flexibly for different temperatures – from cool mornings in the marina and regatta days to coordinated appearances at the yacht club.

When selecting fleece for team & crew, thermal performance, material thickness, freedom of movement, and the planned combination with other crew wear play a decisive role. We offer classic fleece jackets, functional midlayers, models with a zip-in function, as well as fleece trousers. This allows yacht clubs, regatta teams, and professional crews to adapt their clothing specifically to temperature and intended use.

Classic crew fleece jackets are particularly versatile. They provide additional warmth without adding much bulk and can be worn over a crew polo, T-shirt, or long-sleeve shirt. In dry conditions, they work as a standalone jacket, while in wind and rain they become an insulating midlayer under a softshell or crew jacket.

The Martha Fleece Jacket Women is made from stretch fleece with monostretch and combines thermal insulation with a high level of freedom of movement. A high stand-up collar provides additional protection around the neck, while zipped side pockets keep smaller items secure. This makes the model suitable for both active use and team travel or the yacht club.

With the Mia Fleece Jacket Women, the focus is not only on warmth but also on a knitted look. The breathable fleece material, stand-up collar, and stretch trims make the jacket a versatile option for cool days in the marina, at events, or while travelling.

The Amica Fleece Jacket Women complements the range with a breathable and water-repellent model. It is suitable as a midlayer and can also be worn as a lightweight outer layer in dry to slightly damp conditions.

During regattas and long days on the water, a midlayer should do more than just provide warmth. It is equally important that body moisture is transported away and that the clothing does not unnecessarily restrict active movement.

Our Pit Jackets for Women and Men are designed as warm, breathable midlayers. The soft inner material provides additional comfort in cooler conditions, while the relaxed cut supports freedom of movement. A stand-up collar, side pockets, and reflective elements complete the features.

For regatta crews or yacht teams that mainly use their fleece jacket as a second clothing layer, such models are particularly suitable. Worn over a functional shirt, they provide insulation, while a weatherproof crew or sailing jacket forms the outer protective layer when needed.

A particularly flexible solution within our crew wear is fleece jackets with a zip-in function. The fleece or midlayer jacket can be connected to a compatible Marinepool outer jacket. This combines warmth and weather protection in a coordinated clothing system.

The Carolina Inzip Fleece Jacket Women is made from lightweight fleece and can be zipped into compatible inshore and offshore jackets. At the same time, it can still be worn separately. A reversible front zip, a warm stand-up collar, and zipped pockets support flexible use.

The Lucia Zip-In Jacket Women can also be worn as a standalone midlayer or used as a zip-in insulating layer. The breathable fleece material provides additional warmth in cooler temperatures.

For men, the Luca 2 Inzip Jacket offers a technical option with rapid moisture transport and stretch material. It is compatible with Marinepool outer jackets including the Hobart, MP Plorer, and MP Performance Parka.

The Carlo II Fleece Jacket Men also combines lightweight, breathable fleece with a zip-in option. This allows it to be worn separately in moderate temperatures and combined with a compatible outer jacket in colder or wet conditions.

For yacht clubs and professional crews, this flexibility can be particularly useful: A coordinated fleece midlayer can be used throughout much of the season and complemented with a suitable crew jacket in poor weather.

The Highland Fleece Trousers complement the tops with an insulating layer for the lower body. The soft fleece provides thermal insulation and a comfortable fit and is suitable for cool days on board as well as an additional clothing layer.

In changing conditions, a zip-in system makes layering easier. Instead of wearing the fleece jacket and weatherproof jacket separately, compatible models are connected to each other. The fleece jacket provides thermal insulation, while the outer layer protects against wind and moisture.

For a crew, this mainly offers flexible use. In mild weather, the fleece midlayer can be worn separately. If the temperature drops or the weather deteriorates, it can be integrated into the compatible outer jacket. It is important to check the compatibility of the respective models before making a selection.

Fleece retains body heat at a comparatively low weight while remaining breathable. This combination is particularly useful in maritime environments, where active and quieter phases often alternate. The current crew wear selection is therefore strongly focused on breathable models.

A functional crew layering system can, for example, consist of a technical T-shirt or long-sleeve shirt as a close-fitting layer, a fleece jacket as a midlayer, and a waterproof or windproof crew jacket as the outer layer. In mild weather, the outer layer can be omitted.

This makes it easier to adapt clothing within a team to individual warmth requirements without losing the coordinated crew appearance.

A fleece jacket with a logo can visibly represent affiliation with a yacht club, regatta team, or crew. On suitable models, club crests, yacht names, team logos, sponsor branding, or company branding can be integrated into the clothing concept.

With fleece, particular attention should be paid to the material structure. A patch or other customisation should be positioned so that zips, pockets, and functional areas remain unobstructed. Different surfaces – for example smooth fleece or fleece with a knitted look – can also influence which customisation method is suitable.

For a larger crew, we recommend defining the logo, position, size, and colour scheme consistently in advance. Women’s and men’s models do not have to be identical. What matters is that colours and branding match across the different fits.

Our fleece jackets can be combined with different elements of team & crew wear. A technical crew T-shirt or poloprovides a lightweight base for active days. A shirt or blouse is suitable when the fleece is worn over it for yacht club appointments or team events.

In colder conditions, the fleece can be combined with a softshell, club, or waterproof crew jacket. Team trousers and Bermuda shorts complete the outfit for the lower body, while caps, sailing shoes, and other accessories complete the coordinated appearance.

This allows us to create a crew wear concept in which the same fleece jacket for team and crew can be used flexibly from morning activities in the marina and a day of sailing to a team appointment at the yacht club.

Marinepool has been developing functional sailing apparel according to the principle “From Sailors for Sailors” since 1991. We are at home in watersports and have worked closely with sailing clubs, national teams, competitive sailing associations, and professional crews for decades. The experience gained from training, regattas, yacht club life, and everyday life on board flows directly into the development of our products – including fleece jackets for team & crew.

Especially within a crew outfit, fleece needs to perform in a versatile way. A jacket accompanies the team in the marina on cool mornings, later serves as a warming midlayer under a sailing jacket, and can be worn on its own again at the yacht club after sailing. That is why we focus on freedom of movement, comfortable warmth, breathability, and easy combination with other crew wear in our fleece models.

Our collaboration with sailors and teams also shows us that a coordinated appearance should not come at the expense of individual wearing comfort. Different fits for women and men, versatile cuts, and customisation options allow yacht clubs, regatta teams, and professional yacht crews to put together their clothing in a functional yet consistent way.

At Marinepool, we combine maritime experience with functional materials and well-designed layering solutions. Classic fleece provides warmth at a low weight, while technical material constructions offer additional properties depending on the model, such as breathability, stretch, wind protection, or water-repellent surfaces.

Our fleece jackets with a zip-in function are particularly flexible. Compatible models can be connected directly to selected Marinepool outer jackets. This allows the crew to quickly adapt the clothing system to temperature and weather: fleece on its own in cool, dry conditions or as a warming midlayer under a protective crew or sailing jacket.

When putting together coordinated fleece team wear, we also take the requirements of clubs and crews into account. Many models offer suitable areas for club crests, yacht names, team or sponsor logos and can be combined with our polos, T-shirts, trousers, vests, and crew jackets to create a consistent outfit.

For yacht crews, we recommend a lightweight, breathable fleece jacket that offers sufficient freedom of movement and can be combined with other crew wear. If it is regularly worn under a sailing or crew jacket, a close-fitting, low-bulk model is particularly practical – for example the Carlo II Fleece Jacket Men or the Martha Fleece Jacket Women, both of which are pleasantly lightweight and well suited as midlayers.

For crews that often face changing temperatures, a fleece jacket with a zip-in function can provide additional flexibility, such as the Carolina Inzip Fleece Jacket Women or the Luca 2 Inzip Jacket Men, which can be worn separately or integrated into compatible outer jackets depending on the weather.

Many of our fleece models are suitable for customisation for yacht clubs, crews, and teams. Depending on the jacket, club crests, yacht names, crew logos, company branding, or sponsor logos can be incorporated.

If the fleece jacket is intended to be worn as a midlayer, it should fit relatively close to the body without feeling restrictive. A jacket that is too loose can add unnecessary bulk under an outer jacket, while a fit that is too tight can restrict freedom of movement.

If the fleece is mainly worn as a standalone jacket at the yacht club, in the marina, or while travelling, a slightly more comfortable fit may be suitable. For larger team orders, it is advisable to try on different sizes together with the clothing layers that will actually be worn underneath or over the fleece.

Fleece for team & crew is a versatile solution for yacht clubs, regatta teams, professional yacht crews, and other teams. Our fleece jackets for women and men offer comfortable warmth, breathability, and freedom of movement and can be worn as standalone crew wear or as an insulating midlayer. Models with a zip-in function can also be connected to compatible Marinepool outer jackets, making it easier to adapt to changing conditions. Many fleece jackets are also suitable for customisation with club crests, yacht names, crew logos, or sponsor logos. Combined with team T-shirts, polos, trousers, vests, and crew jackets, they create a flexible outfit for sailing, the yacht club, travel, and events. Since 1991, we have applied our experience from watersports to functional crew wear.
