Two zippered hand pockets, a zippered chest pocket, and discreet thumbholes in the cuffs.Our VerdictThis is my preferred fleece type for most outdoor activities, especially hiking and camping; its not a technical fit, meaning has a little more room and a little more give. Its definitely more suited to warm weather, but this would be the perfect layer on a nice summers day with a little breeze; its also a good additional layer around the campsite for an instant layer of warmth, low profile thumb holes are a nice touch, that helps cinch the flees on cool evenings.The grid-backed fleece promotes good airflow, keeping you cool and moving moisture away from the body, the feels soft against your skin so would be comfortable to wear as a base-layer or a mid-layer The fleece has three zipped pockets, two hand-warming pockets and a chest pocket. All are mesh lined, which again promotes good airflow, and all are positioned to be accessed with a rucksack on. – Reviewed by Ultralight Outdoor GearFeaturesLight, packable fleece jacket for day trips and warm-weather trekking.Great as mid layer, or a first layer in warmer climates.Made from recycled polyester that transports away moisture and dries fast.Construction of fabric helps to retain heat, transport moisture & increase breathability.Two zippered hand pockets.Zippered chest pocket.Discreet thumbholes integrated into cuffs.Fabric CO2 dyed.Regular fit.SpecificationsSmall weighs: 325gMedium weighs: 332gLarge weighs: 358gXLarge weighs: 379gMaterial & ConstructionMaterial: 100% polyesterFit/Waist: Regular FitHelp & advice:Recycled Content in Outdoor Gear
