What is organic fleece?
Organic fleece actually stands for organic cotton french terry fleece. Our organic fleece is made from 100% certified organic cotton. Many people think of fleece as being a recycled polyester fabric that jackets are made from. But the name actually refers to how the fabric is knit and finished. The french terry fabric is “fleeced”- meaning brushed on one side to make it soft. Think of a comfy sweatshirt and you’ll have an idea of what organic fleece feels like. The smooth side of the fabric is like the outside of a sweatshirt. The inside of the fabric feels like that soft fleecy inside of a sweatshirt. However, we sew our diapers with the smooth side of the fabric facing out, so that fleecy fabric side is actually hidden.
