[STAxel]

Looking at purchasing a first lite origin hoody soon.

DId you end up getting one? What's the verdict?

i like my FL Kiln but i have been more focused on Kuiu over the last couple years. I really like my 240 in a solid color

Haven't seen a thread about this in a while- looking to upgrade my mid layer hoody. I use a cheap cabela's hoodie and I'm looking for something higher quality and warmer. Eying a sitka heavyweight, kuiu something (not as familiar with their mid layer options), or a firstlite klamath. Want something with a camouflage pattern. Thank you.

I like the first light Klamath. Can wear it as outer layer use for layering.

My mid layer is usually a micro-grid with a hoody. Last year I went between the Canis Chamois micro-grid fleece and the SG Helio Hoody. Did a lot of bush whacking with both as my outer layer during earlier seasons. Both performed extremely well and held up great.

Late to the thread but I second the duck camp barnburner hoodies. Great mid layer

I have various Kuiu, Sitka, and First Lite and like them all for various reasons.

My newest and current favorite is the Eberlestock Pioneer Half Zip. The webbing makes it very cushy and comfortable. I have worn it over a 145 Merino base layer and was impressed. I will get another color.

Pioneer Half Zip Hoody

The Pioneer Half-Zip™ offers supreme performance as a midlayer or next-to skin (midweight baselayer). The gridded fleece interior both insulates and wicks moisture to keep you warm and comfortable, and the synthetic blend outer fabric resists odor, is lightweight and fitted to move with you...

How was the fit?

How was the fit?

I’m 6’1” 195# and chest is 45”.

The large fits me like an athletic cut and works good with a thin shirt underneath. My 2nd was an XL and is more roomy for winter wear with bulkier clothes (flannel shirt) and fits like a sweatshirt.
