Great fit and function

I own three Traverse Hoodies in different patterns. It’s the perfect weight for outer garment use in mild-to-cold weather and also great as an intermediate layer for frigid temperatures. The hood conforms to and turns with your head without blocking your vision. The slick material is possibly the quietest I’ve ever owned. Perfect for bow hunting. The stitching quality is superb. Can’t say enough good things about this hoodie. Get yourself one and you’ll be very happy with it.

Great hoodie for a specific purpose

The fit was exactly what I needed. This is a thicker hoodie than I thought it was. It acts as more of a jacket for cooler temps. It looks and feels great and acts as an insulated hoodie. I have ended up wearing it a lot when the temp is near freezing and I’m not moving around much. Highly recommend.

Perfect hoodie for Alaska

I am super impressed with the quality of this piece of gear. I ordered the hoodie for future goose hunts and gave it a few trial runs while ice fishing and working around the house in Jan/Feb. I'm located in Alaska and we have had a rough winter and this hoodie is a "must have" now. I will be ordering another one for general use during the winter. Does a great job shedding water and repelling wind while trapping in the warmth and not restricting mobility. I plan on using it hunting geese and fishing late season river trips.

Traverse Hoodie

Awesome midweight full zip hoodie. . . . . . Light enough to wear on a fall morning over a t-shirt, but warm enough to use as a base layer for those cold hunts. Great product! I bought this as a gift for my son. . . . . He is 5'10'' and 170lbs with an athletic build and a medium fits him just right.

Awesome jacket!

I owned this coat for five years and it was used quite often as it is my favorite coat. I really like the built in hoodie and face mask. The zipper eventually started separating due to age and use. Went through Sitka warranty and they shipped me a brand new one at no cost to me! Awesome jacket and awesome customer service!

Best hoodie money can buy

I already had a green one that I use as a daily wear through the year. So I needed one for hunting season for early cool mornings or for layering late in the season. Fits perfect. Keeps me warm. Sheds light rain easily the most comfy hoodie I own.

Traverse Hoodie

This is the perfect mid-layer for all my hunts, from high mountains to a tree stand in the Midwest. The fit is spot on. The hood design does not obscure vision. The camo pattern is extremely versatile for most tropes of terrain. I highly recommend this product!

Perfect early to mid season jacket.

I mainly use this for mid season bow hunting in MN. (End of sept to mid to late October) I do occasionally wear it field hunting for waterfowl as well. Its quiet and comfortable. It does run on the small side.

Hoodie

Was good fit, however I am a little salty I didn’t get sticker with any of my purchases as a pro member. Good fit, true to size. Very warm, did not attract deer! Figured getting Sitka camo, that would have made the deer flock towards me lol!

Traverse Hoodie

The Traverse hoodie is the perfect under layer or just worn on its own. The built in face mask and hood combination is very comfortable and provides great concealment. The thumb hole loops are really nice when putting on an outer layer. Add this to your arsenal! You won’t be disappointed.

Awesome hoodie

Super comfortable and warm. Love the pockets and thumb loops. This is one of my favorites and wear it almost daily. Also have the marsh pattern for duck hunts and really like that it is warm yet breathes. If it's windy/stormy I easily throw on my shell and I'm perfect. Fit is great, not too tight or baggy yet it is still accommodating - I got a Large and 6' 209lbs

Perfect jacket

It’s the best jacket they make. I now have 3 of them and will have one in 2 more patterns when my size is back in. So warm but extremely movable/breathable. It’s also so thin with a compressed like fleece layer. So if it’s extremely cold, it still serves as the perfect mid layer. Perfect for weather 20s and up with mild precipitation and tough wind

Most comfortable

This jacket is my go to for dog training. I bought it in white and I’ve had it for 2 years. the material is soft, it cleans easily, wear it every day and it gets washed at the end of each day working 3-12 dogs. I get everything from mud to blood on this jacket daily and it still looks good. If I had to change 1 thing, I would have the sleeve and jacket length made 2” longer but that’s just my experience.
