Finally, an Alpha Hoodie for Women!

Ultralight warmth, built for high-mileage days. The Fastpacker Fleece is made with breathable Polartec® Alpha™ Direct to deliver warmth without bulk. Designed for hikers, backpackers, and adventurers who count every ounce, this women's focused style layers effortlessly over synthetic or Merino wool base layers or under a shell for dynamic conditions.

Featuring a helmet-compatible scuba-style hood with a ponytail exit, thumbhole loops, a modern fit, and streamlined design, the Fastpacker Fleece is made to move with you. The hood sits comfortably away from your head and neck when not in use, offering function when you need it and nothing restrictive when you don’t. Whether you're logging miles on a thru-hike, pushing summit days, or chasing the sun on alpine ridgelines, this is the midlayer you’ll never leave behind.

Polartec® Alpha™ Direct fleece fabric has an incredible warmth-to-weight ratio, providing active insulation and helping regulate body warmth for optimized comfort during stop-start activities. Its lightweight lofted fibers, mesh knit, and hydrophobic qualities make Alpha™ warmth-to-weight dependable, highly breathable, and fast-drying.
