Do you have a Borg fleece you love?

[pahhdgaa]

I think it’s called that. I’d like a 3/4 zip, fleece (Sherpa) mainly beige but happy for it to have pops of colour. Bonus points for cropped or elasticated bottom. I’ve tried AI and I just can’t find what I’m looking for, do you have one you love?!

I don't have a borg but I wear fleeces and usually from Berghaus and similar 'outdoors' brands.

Funnily enough that Joules one is what keeps coming up for me and is the closest to what I’m looking for (cream and brown), but not too keen on the brand, which wouldn’t bother me too much except it’s written in huge text on the back of the neck!

You’re more helpful than AI! Thank you!

Craghoppers are doing a tie in with the National Trust. I have the orangey one.

I try. I like the Joules one and I know it's a reliable brand but I totally get the brand thing.

No , borg fleece is bloody horrible, looks like it’s been washed/dried on too high a heat and feels rough, always looks like it belongs on a market stall with 2 for a tenner lumberjack stylee checked padded shirts.
I’ve just bought a lovely hybrid teddy fleece and it’s gorgeously soft, reduced from £60 to £22 in Regatta.

I have this one from Tesco of all places. Out of stock online but I've seen them in store.

I've got this borg gilet in cream, charcoal bluey grey and olive green. They are lined and have small pockets.

I have this one from Sainsbury's, it's unbelievably thick and cosy. It feels like a normal fleece on the inside and teddy fleece on the outside, almost like a double layer.

Thanks so much everyone, I can’t remember the last time I managed to start an innocuous thread without being jumped on for something I had completely missed! I’m pleased Borg fleeces are safe 🤣 I’m working through all the links!

@pahhdgaa , the OP usually sets the tone.

Have a look at Columbia fleeces. They do cropped ones. I have one with an elasticated bottom 😊

What I’m finding frustrating is that I see a style I like but they don’t do the colour I like or vice versa. I love the Passenger ones but their colours are a bit out there for me! I love that Columbia cropped one but again the Canoe colour is not quite the colour I’m after and nor are the others. Am I too fussy?!

I’ve had my eye on the Passenger ones for a while, lovely colours! You could look at Columbia, Patagonia, North Face, Finisterre too.

If you don’t want to spend that much, Next have some fun fleeces just now.

A bit pricy but I genuinely wear this more than any other item in my wardrobe. They do a range of colours and are thick and lined so really warm.

It might be worth checking high street brands like Zara, H&M, Matalan etc.
