Why We Love It
Sam Hoffman

For climbers who run warm, finding a layer that keeps up without cooking you is the whole challenge. The First Light Stretch Hoodie solves it with a combination of stretch fabric and serious wicking that lets you move freely from snow to rock to ice without feeling constricted or clammy. Guides are putting it on at the start of a cold climb and keeping it on the whole way up, which says a lot about how well it manages output across changing effort levels. The insulation is substantial enough to matter in real cold, but the breathability keeps it from becoming a liability when you are working hard. It is the kind of layer you stop thinking about, which is exactly what you want.

“I am a huge fan of the Black Diamond First Light Stretch Hoodie. With an emphasis on stretch - the piece allows me to move freely from snow, rock, to ice without feels constricted. The wicking ability of this jacket is perfect for someone that runs a bit hot.”
