Youth 230 Merino Power Hoodie

From Opening Day to the Bitter End

The ultimate in performance and versatility, this 230-gram Merino Power Hoodie Base Layer combines the unbeatable natural properties of merino wool with advanced synthetic fibers, giving you a supercharged fabric with incredible performance benefits.

The X-Grid merino wool blend of the Power Hoodie places each fiber where it belongs, amplifying the natural properties of one another while each distinct fiber works to perform at its highest capability. Strategically placed next-to-skin merino wool naturally provides greater comfort, maintains optimal warmth, wicks away moisture, and breathes easily during activities, all while being odor-resistant. On the outer surface, advanced synthetics strengthen the structure of the fabric to enhance overall durability, avoid shrinkage, and eliminate breakdown after heavy use. Synthetic fibers also assist in quickly transferring moisture off your skin and through the garment, dispersing it outside for faster drying and increased comfort.

With minimal bulk, an exceptional warmth-to-weight ratio, and built-in stretch that allows for a full range of motion, the Power Hoodie can be worn as a base layer late in the season when the temperatures fall or as an outerwear piece for active early to mid-season days. Whenever Mother Nature decides to throw a curveball, stretchable thumb loops allow you to efficiently add or remove layers, while the YKK® zippered left chest pocket allows you to keep essentials within reach at all times. The zippered front features a half-length YKK zipper to provide exceptional temperature regulation. Last but not least, possibly the most unique feature of the Power Hoodie is the ergonomic hood with an integrated, breathable face mask.

For over 5,000 years, wool has been used in clothing for its natural properties, and by combining merino wool with advanced synthetic fibers, you have a single fabric with the characteristics of multiple layers, meaning superior efficiency in both warm and cold environments. Don’t underestimate this piece's classy look and articulated fit outside of the field or woods. It looks great worn casually with blue jeans, work pants, or sweats. Good luck trying to pick a favorite between Covert Green, Electric Timber, and Marshfire because they are all awesome!
