WORKWEAR
If you're venturing on mid-winter alpine excursions or warm spring/summer missions, the all-purpose, all-season Zenith Hood is an essential hunting mid-layer top. An integrated slimline hood has a skull cap design, providing complete insulation without any uncomfortable bulk when paired with a barrier layer. In particularly cold conditions, you can lose up to 50% of your body heat through your head. Being able to retain body heat and transfer moisture is key to staying safe in the mountains.
The Zenith is light, warm, tough, and breathes well when the heat comes on. It utilises a 280gm RPET recycled polyester hard-faced, high-wicking fleece for the main body and a 205gm GRIDstretch, high-wicking, high-breathability fleece for the underarms. A body-mapped design for the ultimate in warmth, wicking, and breathability.

Please note measurements can vary within 1cm. This is within our tolerance.

I use my Zenith Top exclusively for night pesting in South Gippsland paddocks and so far have never gotten hot nor felt cold. Pairs well with the core series base layers (if you dont handle the cold well maybe the Core + series may also work well), especially when your slogging up hillsides. It feels lightweight and makes no noise while moving, my only nit pick is I wish it had a second high pocket as the first one is very handy for carrying a couple packs of 22lr or keys but can get a little hard to sift through all your items in the dark if you have multiple items in them. But love its lightweight feel and can't fault it for comfort!
Very highly recommend the Zenith Top!

These are bang on. Great cut,well made,easy to spot clean,they're warm and quite windproof compared to normal hoodies. The hood works really well( if you don't have a beanie,as because it's such a fitting hood it does make your head look monkey like!). They look like they're made to last too. Love them .
