Description

Sometimes there’s nothing wrong with more of a good thing. We took the technology of our revolutionary Micro Puff® Hoody and expanded upon it to create the Macro Puff® Hoody, an even warmer answer to biting cold. Its ultralight recycled nylon ripstop shell with DWR (durable water repellent) finish stands guard against outside elements. The alpine helmet–compatible hood adjusts with a single pull for cocoon-like warmth without messing with your peripheral vision. Inside, the hoody features 135-g synthetic, down-stuff like PlumaFill insulation in the body and 90-g PlumaFill in the sleeves and sides (compared to 65-g overall for the Micro Puff®) for water-resistant warmth without the extra weight. PlumaFill replicates the structure of down but offers the warm-when-wet benefit of synthetic. We quilt the insulation with a unique, minimal-stitch construction to stabilize it and maximize loft. The center-front zipper’s storm flap seals out drafts, and a soft zipper garage at the chin saves your skin. Plenty of pockets where you need them, both in and out, and the whole toasty package self-stuffs down into front pocket.
