English term or phrase: bonded polar fleece
Bonjour,

Je traduis la description d'une chemise en molleton destinée à un public sportif âgé de 15 à 25 ans et je cherche l'expression consacrée du terme "bonded polar fleece".

Voici la phrase dont il est issu:

The thermally-elevated take on the staple plaid flannel shirt features bonded polar fleece, buttoned chest pockets and a removable, sherpa-lined hood.

Merci de vos suggestions!

molleton polaire collé


Explanation:
I don't think there probably exists a dedicated term, this would appear to be something concoted by this particular manufacturer.
I think my suggestion captures the essence of this feature — though i'd be the first to admit it is uncomfortably literal!

neutral  B D Finch: There are several methods of bonding fabrics, including ultrasound, heat and adhesives. So, not necessarily "collé", and I think the term would be "contrecollé" anyhow.

  -> Thanks, B! Yes, absolutely; and indedd, J-Y came up with the 'contrecollé' — which however does seem to be the least likely method, doesn't it?

Empiècements en laine polaire contrecollés


Explanation:
Il me semble que la chemise est confectionnée à partir d'empiècements en laine polaire qui ne sont pas cousus mais contrecollés. Le but serait d'éviter les fuites de chaleur et donc d'offrir un meilleur confort thermique.
Pour polar fleece, on peut aussi choisir "polaire" tout court ou "textile polaire" (laine polaire semble plus vendeur amha)

disagree  Tony M: This appears to be a lining rather than any kind of 'empiècement' — and it would be untruthful to say 'laine', since we have no information as to whether or not it is actually wool (which is, however, unlikely); 'fleece' = style of fabric, not 'toison'

  -> Yeah. “Laine polaire” is commonly used marketing term, although it is a little be technically incorrect. That’s why I also proposed “textile polaire” or “polaire” alone. “Empiècement” could be any piece of textile.
disagree  B D Finch: Polar fleece is polyester, not wool. There are several methods of bonding fabrics, including ultrasound, heat and adhesives. So, not necessarily "contrecollés". Also not "empiècements".
