Schoffel Berkeley Fleece Quarter Zip

Schoffel Berkeley Fleece Quarter Zip

The Schoffel Berkeley Fleece Quarter Zip is a best-selling mid-layer designed for comfort, warmth, and refined countryside style. Inspired by Schoffel’s popular Oakham Gilet and part of the same heritage collection as the Cottesmore Full Zip Fleece, it delivers everyday practicality with a clean, classic look.

Crafted from Pontetorto Tecnopile Premium Fleece (100% polyester), this Italian-milled fabric is renowned for its exceptional warmth-to-weight ratio, softness, and durability. The fleece maintains its shape and resists pilling even with frequent wear, while its breathable structure helps prevent overheating during active use.

The quarter-length YKK zip provides quick temperature adjustment, and two secure zip pockets keep essentials close at hand. An adjustable hem drawcord allows for a personalised fit, while the signature Schoffel trim adds a touch of understated style.

Both the Oakham Gilet and Cottesmore Full Zip Fleece remain popular choices in the same Schoffel range, offering alternatives for those who prefer a sleeveless or full-zip option. The Berkeley Quarter Zip stands out for its balance of warmth, simplicity, and versatility.
