Product Insights
The Simons Maison Contrasting Trim Polar Fleece Throw, at $25, offers a longer length (180 cm) and decorative trim not found in cheaper mass-market fleeces, made from 100% reprocessed polyester that matches virgin fleece in warmth, moisture wicking, and durability while using 45–85% less energy and emitting 30–60% fewer CO₂ emissions. However, it may pill over time and shed loose fibers initially, which can be managed by pre-washing, using a Guppyfriend bag or filter, air-drying, and cold water wash.
Verified claims
- Length
- 180 cm long, outmeasuring comparable throws by 10–30 cm.
- Value
- At $25, it offers longer length and decorative trim absent from £5 mass-market fleeces.
- Material
- 100% reprocessed polyester with equal durability, warmth, and moisture management to virgin fleece.
- Warmth
- Warmth matches virgin-polyester fleece of same pile height.
- Moisture wicking
- Wicks moisture and dries within 2–3% of virgin polyester.
- Durability
- Tensile strength and abrasion resistance are on par with virgin polyester.
- Environmental impact
- Uses 45–85% less energy and produces 30–60% fewer CO₂ emissions than virgin polyester.
- Care
- Wash in cold water, avoid fabric softeners, tumble dry low to maintain softness.
- Pilling
- Some pilling may occur over time as this throw is not anti-pill.
- Shedding
- Loose fibers shed during the first few washes; wash separately before first use.
- Microplastic reduction
- Shedding is reduced by pre-washing 3–5 times, using a Guppyfriend bag or PlanetCare filter, air-drying, and using liquid detergent.
- Microplastic control
- Air-drying eliminates the main microplastic source; a Guppyfriend bag cuts washing release by 86%.

Deep Research
How this throw stacks up against similar budget options
- Within Simons Maison's own polar fleece range, the $25 Contrasting Trim throw slots between the $20 Solid Fleece (130x150 cm, no trim) and the $28 High Pile Fleece (130x160 cm, plusher texture) — offering a 180 cm length and blanket-weave trim as its distinguishing assets at a price that undercuts the plush option by $3.
- Mass-retail fleece throws like IKEA's DAGGKÅPOR (£5 for 130x170 cm) and Dunelm's Soft Fleece (£4.99 for 130x170 cm) define the absolute entry price for similar-sized polyester fleece, both omitting any contrasting trim or logo embroidery — making this $25 Simons throw a deliberate step-up for those who value a designed, finished aesthetic over bare-minimum construction.
Washing fleece to reduce microplastic shedding
- Because tumble drying a polyester fleece releases roughly 3.5 times more microplastic fibers than washing, air-drying this throw eliminates the dominant emission source from a laundry cycle, making it as important as any in-wash intervention.
- Using liquid detergent instead of powder when washing this fleece throw reduces microplastic fiber breakage, as powder’s granular texture increases abrasion that snaps short polyester fibers during the wash cycle.
- A 2025 study on polyester knit fleece found that microplastic release peaks during the first three to five washes and is largely due to manufacturing residue — so prewashing this throw at least three times before regular use with a capture method (bag or filter) will remove the bulk of loose fibers upfront, after which shedding stabilizes at a much lower baseline.
- Washing this fleece throw inside a Guppyfriend bag reduces microplastic fiber release by 86%, trapping shed fibers before they enter wastewater and making the single highest-impact laundry habit change for polyester fleece.
- Adding a PlanetCare Microfiber Filter to your washing machine captures 90% of all synthetic fibers from every load, which means this throw — and any other synthetic garment — can be washed without a dedicated bag once the filter is installed.
How reprocessed polyester affects warmth and durability
- Polar fleece warms by trapping body heat within its brushed pile; since this mechanism depends on air rather than fiber origin, the recycled polyester throw provides the same insulation per thickness as a virgin fleece throw of the same pile height.
- Independent testing shows recycled polyester fabric wicks moisture and dries within 2–3% of virgin polyester performance, so the throw remains dry and cozy even when draped over damp skin or used in humid conditions.
- Lifecycle assessment meta-analyses confirm that recycled polyester uses 45–85% less energy and generates 30–60% fewer CO₂ emissions than virgin polyester, so this throw has a substantively smaller carbon footprint than a conventional polyester fleece blanket.
- A 2019 comparative study found that recycled polyester knitted fabric demonstrated tensile strength and abrasion resistance on par with virgin polyester, meaning this throw should hold up well to tension and friction from everyday use without thinning or tearing.

Q&A
3 answered- What are the care instructions for this throw (machine washable, dryer safe, temperature recommendations)?
- This throw is machine washable and dryer safe. For best results, wash in cold water and avoid fabric softeners; tumble dry on low heat to maintain softness.
- How well does the polar fleece resist pilling after multiple washes?
- The product is not labeled as anti-pill, so some pilling may occur over time. Regular polar fleece can develop pills after repeated washing and wear, but proper care (cold wash, low heat drying) can help minimize it.
- Does this throw shed lint or fibers, especially during the first few washes?
- Polar fleece can shed some loose fibers during the first few washes due to the brushed surface, but this typically decreases after initial laundering. We recommend washing separately before first use to remove excess lint.
