How does this hoody differ from a regular Patagonia fleece hoody?

The shell is a hemp, polyester and spandex blend rather than standard fleece, so it is built to resist abrasion on jobsites. The inside is fleece-warm, so it still feels soft like a sweatshirt.

Can I wear it as a midlayer under a jacket?

Yes. The full-zip front and trim fit let it layer under a shell or work jacket, and it also works on its own as an outer layer in cool weather.

Is the hemp fabric scratchy?

Hemp blends can feel firmer than cotton at first and soften with wear. The fleece interior sits against the skin, so the hemp is mainly on the outside.

What is the Ironclad Guarantee?

It is Patagonia's warranty that covers repairs or replacement if the garment fails in normal use. The hoody is fully backed by it.

Is it warm enough for winter work?

It is designed for chilly conditions, not deep winter on its own. In cold weather most people wear it as a midlayer under an insulated or shell jacket.

The shell is a hemp, polyester and spandex blend, with a fleece-warm interior. It is made in a Fair Trade Certified factory.
