Camping last weekend got down to about 40 degrees and this hoodie kept me comfortable the whole time, even after I worked up a sweat hiking in. The all-wool body actually absorbs moisture instead of feeling clammy like my old synthetic midlayer. It's my new go-to layer for chilly mornings.

Wore this under a shell on a cold, windy paddle and stayed warm and dry the whole time. The all-wool body soaks up sweat without feeling clammy, and it doesn't stink after two days of camping.

I was skeptical about wearing wool near the water, but this hoodie's moisture absorption is spot on—stayed dry through a damp morning paddle. The fabric feels substantial yet breathable, and it packs down easily for camp. Definitely my new go-to for cool trips.
