Salewa Puez Altavia Polarlite Hooded Fleece Hoodie - Black Out
Fleece in Black Out color developed as a lightweight insulating layer intended to be worn during trekking, hiking, and everyday outdoor activity. The material with a 255 g/m2 grammage provides effective thermal insulation.
The model is made from Polarlite knit fabric. The outer layer stands out with its ribbed surface, while the inner side features a brushed structure with a distinct grid pattern. The fabric offers a favorable warmth-to-weight ratio and high breathability.
Polarlite fleece with a 255 g/m2 grammage
The fleece is made from technical Polarlite knit fabric, a blend of 95% polyester and 5% elastane. The polyester is 70% recycled and is responsible for the material's low weight, durability, and quick drying. Elastane increases the stretch of the knit fabric and allows it to move with the body during activity.
The 255 g/m2 grammage creates a distinct insulating layer without building a heavy and stiff construction. The fleece can be worn on its own on cooler days or as a mid layer under a protective jacket.
effective thermal insulation
The inner side of the material is formed into a grid pattern. Raised sections of the knit create small spaces where warmed air is retained. Lowered channels between the grid sections facilitate airflow and moisture transport away from the skin.
The construction provides insulation in areas requiring thermal protection while limiting the buildup of excess heat during movement. The outer side of the fleece has been given a ribbed structure.
2 practical pockets
There are 2 pockets on the sides secured with zippers. The closure protects the contents from falling out during walking and activity. The pockets fit a phone, keys, documents, gloves, and other small items. Their placement also allows for comfortable warming of the hands.
zipper, hood, and high collar
The front closure is a zipper running the full length of the fleece. This solution makes it quick to put on and take off the garment and to regulate ventilation. The soft high collar shields the neck from the cold and limits the entry of cold air. When the fleece is zipped up, it creates an additional insulating layer. The hood provides effective head protection against adverse weather conditions.
elastic finishes
The bottom of the fleece and the sleeve ends are finished with elastic material. The cuffs adapt to the wrists and help keep the sleeves in the proper position. The elastic bottom edge limits the fleece from riding up during movement and helps keep warmth close to the torso.
