If it is cold, usually the trees aren't so green. This brown fleece jacket is the right choice!

Decathlon offers warmer and better looking fleece jackets an jumpers, but this cheap light jacket is the best choice for hiking. Because we as hikers and travelers use a more versatile multiple layers system, than hunters usually need it.
In most conditions of your hikes you will carry it around in a well fitting nylon bag and use it mainly as your pillow during the night.
This fleece jacket is mainly meant as an additional warm layer, a spare clothing.
It doesn't matter, that it looks less good than the others Decathlon offers. Technically it is the first choice. That is the fabric usually trekking fleece jackets are made from. The other hunting pullovers and fleece jackets would become to warm if you would hike in them!
I think, you should choose it in brown, because that looks nice if you wear it under the green padded jacket or the green waterproof jacket.
Far better, than everything in green like a NATO soldier from the sixties!
And it's a bit like a camouflage pattern too, that all together. If we look at it from a distance, it cuts the shape of the man in pieces! Yes, the spots are larger than at military field uniforms. But cars are usually coloured in similar spot sizes, and when we sit behind a bush we are totally invisible.
And, hey! We talk about Britain!
All this brown clothing in our list is meant in combination with the green waterproof jacket!
This fleece jacket must fit over and under the long sleeve cotton shirt!
And it has to fit under the padded jacket!
Yes, slowly we reach with all this layers over each other our winter outfit, even if we don't use the merino layer!
As I wrote in the beginning: Here we have spare clothing integrated. One part of this layers can dry while we use the other parts of the system.
And: All this stuff we can wear in the sleeping bag! That keeps the sleeping bag in our rucksack light! That's a very professional very versatile system, which gives us incredible many options to use this insolating material!
