After extensively wearing this since 2021, I thought it was time to let you know how it’s held up to exercising outside, rucking and just wearing around b/c it looks good. In addition to this short article, you can watch my review on YouTube below:
What I like:
- Warmth. I’ve had since 2021 and wear it all the time in non-summer months. I regularly exercise outdoors and ruck (multiple times/week) and this Polartec Grid Fleece is my go-to. When it’s below 45 degrees, it’s a second or third layer (depending how cold) and covers my neck. When it’s over 45 degrees, I don’t need any other layers with this. It also wicks away moisture, keeping you dry and warm.
- Toughness. Given how much I wear this, there are no signs of wear. The reinforced shoulders with ToughDry fabric do their job for the straps of a rucksack or backpack.
- Looks. It just looks good to me. In addition to being a mainstay for outdoor workouts, I wear around casually all the time.
In addition, it comes with the Scars Lifetime Guarantee – you break it, they fix it! I’ve put my fleece to the test and worn often, mostly with a weighted ruck sack on my back and with outdoor F3 workouts (on grass, parking lots, sidewalks, tennis courts, etc). There is no better lifetime guarantee on the market.
Pairs perfectly with the GORUCK Commando Pullover-Merino Wool, as seen above.
In my video review, I also cover sizing, torso length (important) and a few other details and that it shows little signs of wear.
The boys and I were in the woods today and the temp was in the mid-40’s. I had one long-sleeve t-shirt on underneath this Indestructible/Polartec Grid Fleece. It’s incredibly warm for it’s thickness. I wear it all the time in cool and cold temps.

Thanks for watching/reading. If you enjoy, please like and subscribe to my YouTube channel. I purchase GORUCK gear and clothing regularly. I also use it often– almost daily.
Note: GORUCK has never sent me anything to review. All of my reviews are b/c I purchased and use the products. However, I’d never object to them sending me gear to review…
