Bought my third pair lol
Absolutely lov3 these!
Great fit. This is an excellent mid layer for where under a coat on extremely cold days. I was outside last weekend in 0° temperatures for several hours and never felt cold.
Great fit and function on the Rip Back Hoodie 90. It works well as a mid layer for cold winter rides. Excellent value! I’ll be looking at other products from BTTB.
I was worried about simply melting at this weight, I have a 120 and 90 already, and they perform amazingly keeping me warm.
I am absolutely jazzed to say, this thing rocks a 50 degree spread just fine, all the bulk to wrap up in, very little weight, and damn it looks freaking awesome!
I have been wearing this hoody for multiple days now, seasonal change, temps between 20-60F. Have not needed a shell at the lower temps, and with little movement at the top end stay fine comfort wise. Slight breeze flows through, but too heavy for activity top end (don’t do New York Pass in this). But I’m wearing it in the basement while cruising gear websites on the couch, and it’s just fine!
My old head equates warm with heavy and bulky. This hoody drops the heavy, but still checks the box for bulky, and that keeps my head happy and my body warm.
Another quality product from Justin here, just can’t go wrong with this guy! And alpha really is all that in my book, just a super performance fabric for us folks in the tundra.
-proud owner of 23 hoodies currently, alpha, grid fleece, powerwool, pat cap, craterlake, echo, etc etc. I have issues.
I have bought several items from Beyond the Trailhead; all have been well designed, meticulously constructed, and a joy to wear on backpacking trips and day hikes with amazing warmth for the weight. I also enjoy wear the crew sweater for day-to-day use, so soft, warm and light.
It won’t come in the next day mail, but somehow that makes it even better. Quality is not instant, but I know this will last years.
Hiked with this over a thin t and an Outdoor Vitals Ventus Hoodie in around 3C and I was too hot. Really great for hanging around camp, so warm and comfy, love the kangaroo pocket and thumbholes. Hood is great.
Now that fall arrived, I think I’ve worn it every day it’s unbelievably and incredibly comfortable and perfect at keeping me warm and not too hot. Customer service is outstanding.
My only complaint is on sizing. I wish there were at least a Large and Small selection. I don’t have huge hands, but the size is quite snug. It fits my wife perfectly.
Thanks for leaving the feedback! Glad the design hit the mark. I actually just launched them in a larger size yesterday so they can accomadate a larger range now. Reach out if you have any questions! – Justin
