- Grid fleece traps warmth without weight or bulk

- Made using 29% recycled polyester and Polygiene® treated for reduced washing
Designer's notes
"For Griffon Half-Zip we've kept things simple with a deep venting zip and no hood to create a gridded fleece that maximises warmth and breathability without adding weight and bulk. We’ve included as much recycled content as we could without affecting the performance or appearance. The simplest way to reduce your carbon footprint - by up to 25% - is to purchase products with recycled content.
You can comfortably wear it under other layers but it also feels great next to the skin as a warm baselayer. This is when the Polygiene treatment really comes into its own and keeps you fresher for longer. The thumb loops help delay the need for gloves, and the chest pocket means you can keep small essentials at hand."
Ronnie, Clothing Design Manager

How It Is Made
Recycled materials
Griffon Half-Zip is made using 29% recycled polyester
Polygiene® Stay Fresh
Polygiene® Stay Fresh technology inhibits the growth of pong-causing bacteria, extending your tee’s lifespan and meaning you can wear it more and wash it less. Wearing your tee just one more time before washing can save huge amounts of CO₂ and water over its lifespan.

Reducing our carbon footprint
We are carbon neutral under PAS2060 and offset our Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3 operations and transport emissions. We recognise that offsetting is not part of the solution but a point to pass through on a journey to Net Zero. Carbon Neutral is just a step in that journey.
We have joined the Science Based Targets Initiative which sets independent targets for us to achieve to do our bit to limit global warming to 1.5°C. Our targets are to halve our Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 2025 based on 2018 base year and reduce our total carbon intesnity by 15% every year to achieve genuine net zero by 2050.

Waist - Measure around your waist at the narrowest part.
Hips - Standing with your feet together, measure around your hips at the widest part.
Sleeve - With your arms relaxed by your side, tilt your head down and ask a friend to measure from the bone at the base of your neck, over your shoulder and down your arm to the fold at your wrist.
