Performs Up High, Looks Great In Town
A great insulating piece and outer jacket all in one. The hood locks in heat when you're in icy temps but looks good off when you're grabbing a drink in town.
"I call it the apparel multitool. I wear it for warmth, for light wind protection. Over my baselayer. Under my outer shell. This jacket does it all." Peter Whittaker
"An all day piece that I have a hard time taking off when playtime is over! Use it as an insulation piece or as a wind resistant breathable outer layer on moderate weather days." Chad Peele

- First Ascent is cut closer to the body for a great, active fit with no bunching or binding. It is built as a complete system. All pieces - outerwear, insulating layers and baselayer - are cut so the body and sleeve lengths of each successive layer are slightly longer than the one underneath.

I have a 2010 model of this jacket and my only complaint is that the opening in the hood is large, so you can't really use it as a balaclava. Other than that, it's an excellent piece of gear.

This is in my top 5 favorite pieces of gear. The hood is priceless for temperature control in an instant. I love the mid-layer warmth it provides in cooler conditions and the high breathability with warmth and wind protection as an outer layer in mild conditions. They thought this one through and hit a homerun for layering versatility and comfort. The two layer hood is really cozy.

Wore the Hangfire on Denali, and didn't take it off most days. Very comfortable. It stretches in all the right places, and the hood fits great and can be used instead of a balaclava. I am 6'2", and being able to order a tall size helped keep my back from being exposed. Definitely a great product worth the money.

received the hangfire hoodie a few days ago and find myself not wanting to take it off! the interior is soft (especially the fleece lined hood) the stretch is outstanding. great versatile layer. i own three items of the First Ascent line and i'm very impressed with all three.
