Perfect mid layer

Great fit and helps take the chill out of the air on those colder Colorado morning. i wear this over my Sitka lightweight hoodie. I'm good with just wearing tese two items when hiking all the way down into the 30's. Great piece of clothing for my layering setup

Heavy weight hoody?

It seems to be made well. I like how the hood covers my face too. What I don’t like is that after a couple of wears and one wash it’s already starting to pile. Those little bumps of threads or whatever.

Fabric doesn’t hold up

The fabric does have heavy pulling when worn as a mid layer. Sitka said that is normal wear. Probably worn as a mid layer 3-4 times. Would not expect it with a quality fabric. It is very comfortable and fits true to siz

Love It

Fits good and is warm. I prefer it over the Fanatic Hoodie because it doesn't have the seam around the forearthat is tight and bothers me.

Heavyweight Hoody, Heavyweight Quality

I own 4 of these in 2 different sizes. 5’9”, 185. Medium is perfect mid layer with a merino base. Large works well for a casual everyday fit. I wear them in the field, on the boat, by the fire. In the everyday rotation, with 2-3 years of wear. Stitching has held up, fabric is quilted for warmth, and durable.

Very warm without bulk. Athletic

Very warm without bulk. Athletic fit without being restrictive or saggy in armpits and shoulders. Loosens up after a couple washes. Fits great under other layers. Zips up to your nose so a face mask is unnecessary. I purchased a medium.

My favorite most worn item

Love this hoodie. Own 2 of them. Great for layering or stand alone. Similar to the fanatic hoodie that I also very much love, but no face mask. This hoodie is my go to hoodie for most of the year up in Wisconsin

Great balanced product

This was the last of my Sitka hoodie purchases and I was concerned that either (1) it would be a minimal increase in insulation over the medium weight hoodie or (2) it would be so heavy as to lose the lightweight-ness of the merino hoodie series. Sitka did a great job here by avoiding both of those issues. It's light in weight, but still fairly thick. Looking forward to having it as a base layer on some cow elk hunts in the near future late seasons!

Softest Grid Fleece

Fits great, love the longer tail in the back so it doesn’t ride up. The fleece inner feels great on the skin and it also seems to breathe really well when hiking.

Perfection

Warm, light, perfect for USPSA shooting. I want 10 of them I like it so much. I wanted something not as baggy so I got an XL. I’m 6’4 225 and wear a lot of XXL. The XL was perfect because they’re nice and long compared to most XL sizes, but very fitting everywhere.

Quality product seems right for the cold

Like any Sitka product it appears to be a quality made product. Fits as expected. A little loose for the hood but that's OK, no problem.

Ordered this because I wanted fanatic hoody type without the extra stuff, this was perfect. Same basic use as the fanatic without the mask and hand warmer cuffs. This works better for me as a layer. Its a warm comfortable layer and I wish I tried it earlier

Much more lightweight than normal

Much more lightweight than normal hoodies but warm. Size runs true (to me) which is a bit different since performance gear like Sitka usually runs a bit small for me (I'm not at "athletic" fit). This item was recommended to me by a friend (Alaska guide) and I'm very happy I listened to him.
