Wish you had local pickup! Would love to stop by, say hello next time I buy from you!
Good fit and very nicely made. The hood shape and lenght of the arms with the thumb holes feel great. The slight drop tail is a nice touch. Overall .... I like 👍
So light u forget about it
I recently used my 90 Hoodie - No Pocket Edition on a 420km bikepcking race to keep me warm for riding through the night. Layered with a merino long sleeve base layer and a shake-dry rain jacket over top, I wasn't sure if these layers would be warm enough when the temperatures dipped down to -1... but it was a wonderful experience!
I felt light, mobile and well insulated without the fear of overheating or getting drenched in sweat.
FAR superior to a puffy jacket for these sorts of overnight efforts.
I'm already excited to try it on different bikepacking adventures.
