Welcome to the world’s favourite piece of Swazi gear. The Hood polar fleece hoodie. From chasing deer, to stalking beer at your local, The Hood’s the top you can wear almost anywhere doing anything.

While cotton hoodies are fine for trips to town, hunters know they funnel wind straight to your chest outdoors and are cold when wet. This fleece hoodie has a high neckline and a hood that cinches tight to keep the cold out and warmth in – until you need to dump heat via the extra-long zip.

The large zipped chest pocket takes your phone and more. It’s also handy for muesli bars, predator calls, braid scissors, etc. And it’s longer aft to cover your ass when you bend for spent brass or to take the backstraps off a fat hind. 

Most of us have a couple of Hoods – partly since everyone from WAGS to mates tend to “borrow” them. But mainly because they’re so damn versatile. Stash your spare in the car or boat for an emergency dose of 280gsm polar fleece when the temperature drops.
