A down layering piece for chilly fall belays, breezy ridgelines and serious expeditions alike, the Approach Down Hoody packs down to nothing and is ready in an instant for dependable alpine-worthy warmth.
Inspired by "no pack and a pared down rack" kind of days, the Approach Down Hoody easily layers over a sun hoody on brisk multi-pitch rock routes or under a shell on ice climbs and alpine missions. The Approach Hoody's ultralight nylon ripstop shell features Green Theme International's revolutionary Breathable Water Protection Technology-an environmentally friendly, PFC-free DWR that's superior in performance and substantially more durable than other DWR solutions. Inside, premium 800-fill, RDS-certified HyperDRY goose down insulation offers high-lofting, incredibly packable warmth that resists inclement weather. When it's time to move, the jacket stuffs into left front chest pocket and secures to your harness with a carabiner clip loop. For 2023, the fit, design, and sizing has been entirely updated.
