What is the reason for adding separate nylon color-blocking patches to fleece pants?
This question arises when choosing cozy fleece jogger pants and noticing smooth nylon color-blocking patches that differ from the outer fabric. It makes one curious about how the two different materials are divided and used for their respective purposes.
It is a construction designed to reinforce areas prone to frequent friction and wear with tough nylon, while maintaining warmth and shape retention through fleece blended with wool and synthetic fibers.
HELINOX WEAR's Wool Fleece Jogger Pants divides the outer fabric wrapping the body and the partial color-blocking into different materials. The outer fabric is a blended fabric of acrylic 45%, wool 35%, and polyester 20%, and 100% nylon is used for the color-blocking[1].
Acrylic and polyester, which account for a large portion of the outer fabric, are lightweight and hold the shape stably, while wool is added to provide warmth by trapping air. Wool is warm, but it has low friction resistance and shrinks easily when washed; blending it with synthetic fibers reduces these weaknesses and makes everyday care much easier.
The added nylon color-blocking supports the fleece fabric so that it does not fray easily. In general, nylon has prominent friction-resistant and tough properties, serving to reinforce the durability of the garment when patched onto areas where hands frequently enter and exit or where rubbing occurs.
On which parts of the jogger pants and to what extent the nylon color-blocking is placed has not yet been confirmed from official materials.
