An incredibly stretchy Hoody that won’t restrict any outdoor pursuits
Rab says:
A lightweight, Thermic™ G stretch fleece, hooded midlayer made with 100% recycled fabric. Offering superb mobility, breathability and temperature regulation, it's perfect for hiking, climbing and mountaineering.
Our Verdict
This fleece has an extraordinary amount of stretch and is incredibly unrestrictive, so as well as hiking and biking, this jacket would be brilliant for indoor and outdoor rock climbing and bouldering.
The Thermic™ G fleece helps trap warm air close to the skin but ventilates fast when the jacket is opened; brilliant for sunny calm days, but I would advise a wind shell in cooler conditions as the wind will go right through it. The hood fits well and dose a good job of blocking some wind from your ears, and helps retain a little heat
I often find that more technical fleeces have a habit of riding up, but this fit well and didn’t cause any irritation. Sadly, no thumb loops, which is my only negative
