This midweight men's base layer hoodie expands our LIFA® Merino series, acting as a unique 2-in-1 item that combines moisture-managing LIFA® fibers that lie next to the skin and an extremely soft merino wool exterior. More than just a hood, this base layer’s top has a balaclava, for full warmth protection of your neck, ears, and even face. This is our warmest base layer for extra cold days and is ideal for backcountry skiing, hiking, mountaineering or other winter activities. Additionally, the base layer features flatlock seams, a ponytail hole in the back of the hood, and thumb holes for additional comfort.
