Is Malden Mills Expedition Weight fleece the same as...

[Mamabug&co.]

Windpro? I found a site that has some Exp. Weight as being water repellent, etc. Sounds alot like Windbloc and Windpro.

I just got information from Mike at Wazoodle regarding the difference. He said Windpro isn't a good option for diapers because it does just what the name implies...protects you from wind. It wicks water but not as well as the other Malden Mills. So don't go with Windpro or any fleece that has "wind" in the name. They are meant for jackets, pants and shirts.

WindPro and Windbloc are both great for diaper outers.

As for "Expedition Weight," I'd ask the seller. It may be 200wt or possibly 300wt fleece rather than WindPro.

Oh, just remembered, there is some 100wt that is often referred to as PT100 - Expedition Weight.

Good luck!
