A rugged, high-performance technical hoodie designed for extreme durability and thermal efficiency in the thickest scrub and harshest backcountry conditions.
The Hunters Element Fiordland Hoodie is built for the "hard-yards" hunter. Named after one of the most unforgiving landscapes on earth, this hoodie is crafted from a unique, heavy-duty fabric that balances incredible warmth with high-level abrasion resistance. Unlike standard fleece that can easily tear on thorns or blackberry bushes, the Fiordland features a tightly woven outer face that shrugs off the "hook and pull" of the Australian bush. Internally, the high-loft brushed fleece traps a thick layer of warm air, making it an ideal outer layer for crisp autumn mornings or a dependable mid-layer during a freezing alpine winter.
