40 Years of Fleece: Frequently Asked Questions


You asked, we’ll answer! We’re celebrating four decades of the fabric that built our collection, with answers to your most pressing questions about our fabrics and styles.

1. What’s the difference between Vello and Terry Fleece?

Vello is our original fabric, with a feel and weight most similar to “traditional” fleece that’s been around for...40 years. Our Terry is a French terry fabrication with a looped texture on the outside and a smooth finish for the interior.

2. I just spilled ____________  on my favorite Dudley. What do I do?

Our fabrics stand up to all kinds of mishaps (seriously, we’ve heard it all). We recommend applying your favorite stain treatment right away—baby wipes work wonders in a pinch. Then launder in warm water and hang to dry. No irons or fabric softeners, please! And wash towels separately for best results.

3. How is your fleece clothing made “responsibly?”

From the beginning, we’ve sourced fleece spun from recycled plastic bottles, rerouting millions of bottles (latest count coming soon!) from oceans and landfills into eco-friendly styles. Our designs are intended to stand the test of time, for maximum longevity.

4. When are you restocking your fleece styles?
