Introducing the latest Gamma Hoody from Arc'teryx, an all-around softshell jacket designed for versatility. Its double-weave fabric features nylon on the outside for enhanced abrasion resistance, paired with a brushed backer inside for added comfort, warmth, and moisture-wicking. This jacket serves as an excellent mid-layer when a standalone baselayer isn't warm enough, or a waterproof hardshell is too much. Wear it as a wind jacket, mid-layer, or outer layer for extra abrasion protection during alpine rock climbing. It also provides additional snag and abrasion resistance when worn over a puffy jacket in cold weather, without the bulk of a full-on waterproof hardshell. Suitable for any mountain outing, anytime, anywhere. The fully adjustable, helmet-compatible hood can be easily removed or worn over a thin skull cap or lightweight visored performance ball cap in colder conditions.
