KARPOS AMBRIZZOLA HOODIE Urban/mineral blue

The Karpos Ambrizzola Full-Zip Hoodie is a technical hoodie made from breathable, warm Thermo Fleece fabric for summer mountaineering and hiking. Weighing 350 g and featuring a slim fit, it offers an excellent balance of warmth, breathability and freedom of movement when temperatures drop in the mountains.

Conditions and intended use

This hoodie sits in the mid-range of technical mountaineering and hiking layers. It is designed specifically for summer excursions in the countryside and high mountains. It is intended for active hikers and climbers who need a lightweight mid-layer when tackling ascents or taking a break at the summit.

Key features and materials

• Thermo Fleece fabric: The midweight fabric provides optimum heat retention while remaining highly breathable during climbs.
• 94% polyester and 6% elastane blend: The main fabric allows unrestricted movement and adapts to the body during more demanding climbs or walks.
• YKK® zips: A durable full-length zip and two front pocket zips allow quick ventilation and secure storage for small essentials.
• Anatomical hood: The shaped hood, with an elasticated edge, fits snugly around the head and helps keep out cold wind.
• Recycled fibres: The hoodie is made with at least one recycled material, helping to reduce its environmental impact.

In use

On all-day high-mountain hikes, this hoodie makes an ideal mid-layer: at 350 g, it won’t weigh down your pack, while providing instant warmth when you reach windy summits.

On technical ascents and while climbing, the slim fit and elastane content ensure the garment does not restrict arm movement and fits neatly beneath a climbing harness.

In transitional seasons and on cooler summer mornings, the full-length YKK® front zip lets you quickly and effectively regulate your body temperature to match the intensity of your activity.

Fit

The hoodie has a slim fit designed for an athletic build and prevents excess fabric from bunching beneath outer layers. For the best fit, we recommend choosing your usual size; if you have a broader build, consider going up one size.
