Mountain Equipment Mens Eclipse Hooded Fleece Jacket

  • Material: Pontetorto Tecnopile
  • Fit: regular
  • Length: mid-length
  • Hood: yes
  • Pockets: 1 chest zippered

A specialist piece for serious winter use, the Mountain Equipment Men’s Eclipse Hooded Fleece Jacket brings warmth, stretch, and dry comfort to your mountain mission in a low-bulk package. Pontetorto Tecnopile fleece wraps your body in toasty warmth when you’re facing frigid, early morning winds at the start of a dawn patrol tour, and then also wicks moisture and dries exceptionally fast after a particularly demanding approach. And with that strenuous exertion usually comes some unwanted smells, so Mountain Equipment thought ahead and equipped this top with a Polygiene anti-microbial treatment that fights off funky odors for freshness after the adventure. The close-fitting hood provides you with face protection and an offset closure to prevent chafing while blocking out the cold, and the thumbholes at the end of the low-bulk cuffs keep your fit snug while boosting defense against the elements.
