I'm interested in this jacket and the Mortise. What is the difference between the fleece and the Primaloft PL in the body? What are the advantages of both materials? There is a $5.00 difference of price in the jackets which basically are the same. Please Help!

Primaloft is much warmer that fleece. It is advertised as having the same properties and insulation as down, but uses far less material, (puffiness), to achieve the same warmth as down. Having used Primaloft, I can say it is great stuff.
