Another warm, comfortable piece that excels at being versatile. Think of it asa modern take on a classic sweatshirt. The Polartec® Power Stretch® fabric is known for its four-way stretch and breathability, so it'll keep you comfortable as you skin up the fire road, or hump a load across the talus field. Any moisture gets wicked away readily, but the Superstretch Hoody is machine washable in case you really overdo it.
The Super Stretch has a nice smooth finish and flat-lock seams, so you won't end up with those semi-permanent dents in your skin after carrying a pack, or hanging in a harness. In addition, we cut the tail a few inches longer than the front, and that helps keep it in place under your pack's hipbelt or under your climbing harness - instead of riding up too high and giving you that spare-tire look. Similarly, you can avoid having your sleeves all bunched up at your elbow when you add a layer on top; just use the thumb holes to keep those sleeves where they belong.
We built the Superstretch for serious technical backcountry performance, but we can stretch that to include maybe a little pond hockey, or even a late-season barbecue.
Maschine washable. Weight 10.7oz
