It’s a Cold World
Out There.
Let’s Keep It that Way!

Like you, we’re all about cold-weather. We want cold, snow, and ice as part of the places we live, love, and explore. So while keeping you Warm Where It Counts!™, we're also doing what we can to keep it cool for the planet. Here’s how we’re “baking in” some good right from the start.

“We look at this as cleaning up after ourselves—like taking out
the trash—but also trying to create less trash in the first place.”
— The PolarJock® Team

U.S. Made: Most Materials + 100% of Manufacturing

  • PolarJock® uses 100% U.S. manufacturing, since part of mindful manufacturing is transportation.

  • Two-thirds of our materials are made in the U.S. and/or are recycled materials. 

  • Polartec®, the fleece we use, manufactures the majority of its products in the United States. Polartec's fabrics are formed in Hudson, New Hampshire, and finished in Cleveland, Tennessee. The company’s headquarters and research and development operations are in Massachusetts. 

  • The Polartec® fleece we use is also 100% Recycled Polyester. Polartec® is also the creator of Eco-Engineering™ which sets the standard for sustainable textiles, including the world’s first fully recycled and biodegradable fleece.

  • For shipping your PolarJock® to you, we use packaging made from recycled materials.

Minimal Design = Near Zero Waste

The cutting tables of an apparel-making facility can result in scrap fabric that easily goes in the trash. PolarJock™, however, creates virtually no waste. Here’s why and what else we’re doing to eliminate our impact there as well.

  • To start, PolarJock® is minimally designed, streamlined to get the job done with no extra bulk

  • Both our product design and cutting procedures maximize every inch of fabric yardage

  • Whatever small amount of material waste remains is collected and repurposed, “upcycled.” It takes a while to accumulate any substantial amount, but we do collect it for reuse.
