Kinda shaggy looking, weighs next to nothing. An ultralight, simple, and highly compressible baselayer/midlayer. Ideal for active insulation as part of a layering system. Wear with a light base layer on the move without overheating. The classic style reduces excess weight in the sleeves and allows for an extended range of use.

v2.0 grading is more dynamic compared to the original hoodie, meaning the small sizes are smaller and the large sizes larger.

Polartec Alpha Direct was originally developed for the US military as an insulated fill alternative, it has taken off in popularity with ultralight hikers as a standalone fleece replacement. By placing patented low-density fibres between air permeable woven layers Polartec® created a more efficient fabric for regulating warmth and transferring moisture. This advancement increases thermal adaptability in changing conditions and different phases of physical activity. Alpha is also hydrophobic, so it won't absorb moisture even if you start to sweat. Alpha is certified Standard 100 by OEKO-TEX®.
