Versatile and durable:

Fleece

The flexibility of the fleece and the flaxseed allows for easy contour and draping. When heated flaxseed produces a slight bit of moisture giving you a more penetrating heat.  When chilled the fleece is still cozy and flexible while cooling to the area.

 

 

Cotton

The ten channel cotton design gives you more coverage across your back or other areas. The cotton material makes a great cold pack allowing the cold to transfer better and still durable and stout, ready for daily use.

The cotton pack was originally designed for a client's horses. She was wanting a more durable material and larger size, than the fleece, to use in the barn.  Now, the cotton pack is a favorite among many for people and animals alike.
