Yes, what do I have against fleece? After all it's just a fabric; a very soft and warm one too. Yet there is something about fleece sweaters that makes me judge the person carrying it instantly. I realised that today when I was lying in the sofa and for some reason started to think about fleece sweaters and how hideously unstylish I find them.
A fleece sweater can transform an attractive and potentially cool guy into a sporty nerd within seconds. And sporty is not a word I use kindly.
Strangely, I don't think I'd ever really been aware of just how much I detest this item of clothing until today, when I was thinking about different people I've met that I have formed an opinion about based upon the fact that they are wearing fleece. Anyone who has the slightest idea about style would never wear it outside the house in any given situation. I've met people who I thought were arty and cool, but who suddenly appear in front of me in a fleece jacket. And that's it. They were simply not who I thought they were.
The worst kind of fleece clothes are of course the multi coloured ones. There is no excuse for putting on one of those. There just isn't.
I don't mind fleece blankets though. I own at least four of them myself. Because they're warm and soft against the skin, just like blankets should be. Blankets don't have to be stylish. I still would never bring a multi coloured fleece blanket in to my house. That would be taking it a bit too far.
