Something I Hate: Old Navy Performance Fleece

Ever since I could remember, Old Navy's Performance Fleece items have always made me nauseous. I hate the way they look and feel -I can stand other fleece items but not "performance" fleece. It didn't help that I actually used to work at Old Navy. The entire time, I refused to touch the stuff and made everyone else do any of my jobs that involved the fleece. So every year when the cold season rolls along, I cringe because I know the fleece will stop popping up everywhere -in the store, in pop-up ads, in commercials.. UGH.

Old Navy Fleece sweaters. I could never understand why these were so popular. These babies flew off the shelves on a daily basis -especially around Holiday time but seriously, who actually wants one of these. To have my entire upper body covered in performance fleece would be a hazard to my health.

And if fleece sweaters aren't bad enough, Old Navy offers us poor customers fleece hats so that you can feel the grossness all over your head, face, and ears as well.

Or you have the option to literally choke yourself in performance fleece.

OR.. you could rock a "super stylish" fleece bag -perfect for carrying all of your fleece accessories.

And lastly, there are the fleece gloves which to me, is the worst fleece item that Old Navy offers. I would never in a million years wear these unless my life depended on it. The fleece makes my skin incredibly dry (no idea why) and these would make my hands feel like sand paper.

So who's for fleece and who's not?
