new pieces from Sitka—Alpha Fleece hoody and vest

[mtwarden]

The material seems similar to the Kuiu Strongfleece series. Nice pieces but they didn’t breathe or block the wind very well

While these Alpha pieces don't block the wind as something with Windstopper fabric, they definitely block the wind much better than your typical fleece and they also breathe better than Windstopper. No experience with the Strongfleece stuff.

Would this be comparable to say a Kuiu 240? Maybe a hair warmer at 280

Yeah it’s really similar but a touch more jacket like.
