Men’s Highpile Hooded Fleece

The Highpile Hooded Jacket is a throwback to the golden age of Himalayan climbing when budgets were small, and ambition was high. Inspired by the original pile fleeces of the 1970s and 80s with the classic styling of soft and warm. Featuring excellent stretch and wicking properties, it’s the ideal mid-layer for mountaineers and walkers needing to beat the cold. With its retro feel, the Highpile Hooded Jacket is at home everywhere, from bare mountain bothies to busy city streets.

This high-loft fleece is made from 100% recycled post-consumer waste and is soft, stretchy and comfortable against the skin. Designed for cold-weather conditions, it traps heat efficiently and dries quickly, keeping you warm after an uphill climb.

Durable and weatherproof softshell fabric overlays on the shoulders and elbows reinforce areas vulnerable to abrasion and thinning – whilst paying homage to the early fleece styles. Completed with zipped handwarmer pockets that help thaw frozen fingers, and a snug grown-on hood that adds extra protection on wind-blasted uplands.

Designed around the Alpine Fit with excellent stretch - the Highpile Hooded Fleece layers well while allowing for a complete range of movement. So whether you’re breaking camp beneath the majesty of Annapurna or scrambling Grib Goch’s knife edge arête – you’ll be ready for anything.
