Product Details

The Icebreaker Men's Merino Blend 200 RealFleece Descender Long Sleeve Zip Hoodie is a lightweight, versatile mid layer built for high-intensity movement in cool to cold conditions. It uses brushed merino-blend Realfleece™ for soft, natural warmth without extra weight, so it stays comfortable next to skin whether you're layering up for a cold trail start or moving steadily through changing temperatures.

What makes this piece work in the real world is the balance of warmth and ventilation. Cool-Lite™ mesh underarm panels help dump heat when the pace picks up, while details like offset shoulder and side seams, flatlock construction, thumb loops, a dipped hem, and a hidden chest pocket make it easy to wear for long days hiking or running. It’s the kind of layer that earns a regular spot in the pack once the mornings turn cold.
