I have seen on several different sources, claims that left of center people and environmentalists follow a fleece fashion trend. Although many people in such a category wear fleece because it is comfortable and do not label themselves as "superfical," it does seem to be a popular style of clothing for such individuals. First, I have seen more than my share of fleece jackets in stores, but what about shirts and pants? Has anyone else seen much of a fleece wardrobe that includes regular shirts and panst made of fleece? I read about one woman who complained how she likes to dress up when she goes out. However, at all of the Sierra Club meetings she has been to, people wear nothing but fleece. Is fleece clothing seen as too casual for the rest of society? Is fleece a fashion trend found only in rural areas and other "outdoorsy areas"? I have seen fleece jackets here in NJ, but people often dress up and mind their appearances in a more "dressier" way. Am I correct to portray (as a very general rule) that fleece clothing is for most popular the left of center environmental crowd, who tend to be better educated? Isn't fleece popular for such individuals at all ages and not just the under 25 crowd? Am I correct to say that fleece jackets are the most common form of the clothing, but some people do go out of their way ot buy the shirts and pants? Where else is fleece sold other than outdoor stores? Some may be found in Walmart but is it a more expensive cloth? Or is it the same as cotton in price? Why is fleece so popular among that specific demographic? Discuss.
Um......just a thought here.....if you wanna discuss political ramifications of a piece of clothing, perhaps you should post your query on the P&OC forum.

We're really not worried about the political leanings of fleece wearers.

LOL! So true!
I tried to rep you but I still have to "spread it around".
I wasn't trying to discuss politics, just the certain demographics and personalities of those that wear fleece. Secondly, what about the rest of my question? Are they found at Wal-Mart? What about clothing other than jackets? Is fleece cheaper than cotton? I know that my past posts in here may not have been that popular, but I am interested in the fashion trend that I have heard described.

I doubt they'd be found at Walmart right now because it's Summer. I know people both under and over 25 who wear fleece because as emi_ described, it's cheap, warm and can be cute.
Why would you need to know if fleece is cheaper than cotton? Are you thinking of selling it?

Where I come from, everyone wears fleece, rich, poor, left, right, young, old.
It can be found in any store, and every fabric store carries it by the yard.
A few months out of the year, you'll find me covered in fleece. I don't care how much it costs; I could give a rat's a$$ about trends. Anything below 10 degrees Fahrenheit, it's fleece, that's it.
