Is the Roam Crosslayer warm enough on its own?

Kifaru rates it for about 40° to 75°F. It works as a breathable outer layer on cool, windy days, but below that range you will want a shell or a warmer insulator over or under it.

How does it handle rain?

It is water resistant, not waterproof. The PFAS-free DWR sheds light rain and snow and dries quickly, but sustained rain will soak through.

How does the fit run?

Owners report a boxy, wide midsection and little stretch. If you are between sizes or want a trim layer, size down or check Kifaru's size chart.

The hoodie itself. It ships as a single midlayer with no stuff sack or extras listed.

Is $150 a good price?

Kifaru International lists it at $150 as of November 5, 2026, and it is the only new price listed, so there is no lower new price to compare against right now.

Does it have a full zip?

No. It has a half-zip front, so venting is more limited than a full-zip layer.

Our take on the Roam Crosslayer (Hoodie)

The Kifaru Roam Crosslayer is a lightweight technical midlayer hoodie built around a patented single-layer weave that pairs a weather-resistant softshell face with a grid-back fleece interior. It has a half-zip front, dual-entry kangaroo pockets with mesh venting, thumb loops and an athletic hood, and weighs 13 oz in size Medium. Kifaru rates it for roughly 40° to 75°F, so it works as a breathable outer layer on cool, windy days or as an insulator under a shell. At $150 at Kifaru International as of November 5, 2026, it is the only new price listed, so there is no discount to compare against.

What reviewers say

Build qualityPraisedReviewers praise the construction and the fabric.
