Breathable merino warmth for wherever you roam.
Made with a merino thermal grid knit fabric, the RLT (Road Less Traveled) Hoodie delivers the perfect mix of warmth, breathability, and softness while staying light enough to layer under a shell. The anti-odor merino fabric keeps your B.O. at bay and allows you to wear this layer for multi-day missions stink free (your crew will thank us). It is the layer you grab first whether you are headed out for dawn patrol, layering for a summit approach, a crisp fall hike, or just brewing coffee at camp.
Designed for high-output activities, the fabric has incredible breathability and stretch so it moves with you, thumbholes keep your sleeves in place, and the reinforced ripstop elbows add durability where you need it most. Zippered chest and side pockets keep your essentials secure whether you are on the trail or on the road.
Part of our premium Venture Far Series, the RLT Hoodie is a versatile midlayer built for performance while being comfortable wherever your next mission takes you.

What Customers Are Saying...
Clark
Best Grid Hoodie I've Found Yet
Want a warmer but breathable midlayer for skiing, so grid fleece makes sense, but most aren't that warm or are too baggy to fit well under a shell. This seems thicker and is warmer than others I've tried. Pockets are great and hood fits snug to face, yet super stretchy to bend with all movements.
Dave
Super Soft & Comfy
Super soft and comfy. Great as a layering piece on cold days or perfect by itself on more mild days with chilly mornings. Perfectly placed and sized pockets, zippers seem sturdy...overall super happy with this one.
Craig
Comfort + Smart Design
A combination of comfort, warmth and smart design. Awesome pockets, fit and fabric. Great for the outdoors and travel as temperatures outside and in the plane can greatly vary.
