LightWool 140 Hoodie w/zip

Intended use:

The LightWool 140 Hoodie w/zip is designed for long, active days outdoors, especially in environments where exposure to the elements, temperature shifts, and sustained movement are part of the experience. Ideal for hiking, trekking, trail running, fishing, multi-day adventures and everyday outdoor living, it functions as a lightweight baselayer that balances breathability, moisture management and thermal regulation.
The material in selected colorways achieve UPF 40+ (Jet Black) and UPF 50+ (Tarmac), making it a trusted companion for warm weather adventures when staying cool and covering up is essential.

Product USP:

This updated version of our beloved LightWool hoodie elevates lightweight performance, natural fiber and versatile features to adapt to any needs, making it the go to style for days in the outdoors when you don’t know what to expect. Selected colorways of the material are tested according to EN 13758 and deliver UPF 40+ (Jet Black) and UPF 50+ (Tarmac), offering high UV blocking capabilities without compromising airflow or comfort – a rare combination in lightweight merino.

The innovative 2 in 1 hood and collar construction provides adaptable coverage for the neck and head, while the 2-way zipper adds flexible ventilation. The updated fit, improved under arm gusset construction, and horizontal thumbholes enhance mobility and protection. Flatlock seams for comfort, double layer cuffs and hem, and premium 17.5 micron merino wool create a garment that feels exceptionally soft while performing across a wide range of conditions. With ZQ certified traceable wool, it blends sustainability, technical detail, and all day outdoor functionality.

Fun facts:

The LightWool 140 Hoodie has long been a “must pack” favourite among outdoor enthusiasts. Aclima continuously work to improve its products based on real life testing and feedback, and the design team has reworked and evaluated all details to get an improved fit for enhanced mobility, updated details for better coverage and tested the fabric for up to UPF 50+ on selected colorways.
The redesigned hood and collar were inspired by real world use: hikers wanting neck coverage without overheating, runners wanting a hood that stays put, and travelers wanting one piece that works everywhere. The result is a subtle but meaningful evolution — a hoodie shaped by the people who wear it most.

End of use strategy:

Repair when possible to extend its’ lifespan.
Reuse or donate if still functional.
Recycle through textile recycling programs where available.
As it is primarily made from natural merino wool, the fabric is biodegradable under the right conditions, reducing long term environmental impact compared to synthetic alternatives.
