The better fleeces are made of 'Polartec' which is recycled polyester.

manmade. Fleece is recycled plastic shredded or may be mixed / weaved with some natural fibers.
--
While all synthetic fleece is essentially plastic fibers, only products that use fiber which was once a plastic bottle or container and then chipped up, melted down and re-spun unto fiber can make the claim to be recycled. (Click here for more information about Ecospun™)
---Polarfleeece-A polyester fleece made by Malden Mills which keeps the body dry by managing perspiration, keeps the body warm by trapping heat, and protects from the weather by blocking wind and water.

I'm in Canada. The only likely disaster would be a hurricane (I imagine if we get it bad, the US would be devastated), flood (minimal effect on me, as I'm on the escarpment near Niagara) or perhaps an Ice Storm (would probably be the worst option)... I'd say longterm province wide power failure; but when that happened last time, everyone just hit the bars before the beer got warm... hardly a disaster... I'm going on 30...

Most with artificial, but the best ones are real fleece.

I would opt for both - depending on the quality of the fleece!!

Man made, usually polyester mixes to keep the warmth in and cold/wet out.

It could be natural wool, or some synthetic material.
