For a bracing morning glacier traverse followed by apéritifs at the Buffet de la Gare, a rugged and functional fleece with a handsome sweater-knit exterior is a natural choice. The Better Sweater™ Hoody combines the durability and easy care of 9.5-oz 100% polyester with a sophisticated sweater-knit weave and heathered yarns. Mountain-town comforts: a stand-up collar built into the hood for extra protection from the elements; collar, cuffs and hem lined with micro-polyester for moisture-wicking performance; a chest zip pocket and cozy zippered handwarmer pockets for stowing digital camera, phone and audio devices.
