Does every fleece fabric listing mean the same cloth?
No. Fleece is a knit with a raised surface that traps air. It is not the same as woven wool coating. Name fibre, face, back, and whether it is microfleece, sherpa, or French terry related.
Can you skip sampling fleece fabric?
Rub a sample. Check pilling and stretch recovery.
What should stay on the brief besides the keyword fleece fabric?
Fibre, pile, weight, and pilling notes. Confusing fleece, terry, and wool coating.
