Technology


Why We Made This
Fleece mid-layers often come with a lack of efficient moisture transfer limiting the performance of subsequent layers. We solved this problem with a unique waffled construction that accelerates the movement of sweat through the system, preventing it from building up on the inside. The channeled insulation provides some additional warmth, and Polygiene technology controls odor building making this an incredibly versatile mid-layer, that can also function as an outer layer.

I have last years model, not sure what is different for this year. Wore it in Michigan's white tail opener 2 days ago when it was 60 going to the stand and 80 coming out. Got a little sweaty on the way in, but the wicking dried me out quick once in the stand. Even in 70's and low 80's I wasn't hot as the channeled fleece kept air moving (BTW, this was with using the hood). Only got uncomfortable when the sun started hitting my directly. I was really surprised, I thought I would have to shed it once the temps started rising.
Really soft and warm. I wore it in temperatures around 40 degrees and it was perfect. It’s crazy how it’s super lightweight and still manages to keep you warm. I would buy again. The fit is super athletic. If you want a loose fit order up a size.

The Necessities of Comfort: Gear Tips To Improve Your Next Hunt
Comfort can play a vital role in the hunt. Not in the sense that being comfortable makes the hunt easy, more that it allows us to shift focus from the challenges of the hunt to the task at hand. When we bring our bodies and minds to a state of comfort, we become more effective, more efficient, and more durable to the conditions. Comfort becomes a tool.

Like I said in my review of the Kelvin WS hoody, I can't decide which of these is my very favorite piece from Sitka. It could very well be this one. The warmth to wight ratio boggles my mind. It is very soft and very warm for what it is. With a Merino wool base layer under the heavyweight hoody, it can probably get you through 90% of your hunting season. It wicks moisture very well and does not hold onto scent at all. I can't say enough about it, I like it so much that I plan on getting another one just to have. Very pleased.
Unbelievably comfortable. I bought this in every color, because I liked it so much. I can wear this in almost any temperature . Perfect mid layer. Very packable. I can’t say enough good things about the hoodie.
Awesome and warm. This is exactly what I wanted from a “mid-layer” hoodie. Perfect thickness and warmth without being bulky. Long tail in the back prevents that funky ride up when wearing waders. Overall, well worth the money.
Awesome base layer, comfy and fit well!
