Say goodbye to your puffy jacket! Made from USA-made Polartec "Extreme Warmth" High Loft fabric, the highest warmth to weight fabric that Polartec makes. As warm as any puffer, at about the same weight, but unlike a puffy jacket, the Tahoma breathes almost as well as the Alpha fabric, stretches with your body movement, is hydrophobic, quick-drying, insulates when wet, can be laundered easily on trail with the rest of your clothes, way more comfortable on your skin than nylon, more durable and way less expensive than a down puffy hoodie.
 
Features:
 
- Extra large balaclava-style hood with cinch accomadates beards, pony tails, hats, light helmets and can be snugged around your head and face, or worn loosely for air flow
- YKK zippered front kangaroo pocket keeps your mits warm but also provides secure storage for anything you dont want to lose. Great place to store your water filter or cell phone on a freezing night!
- USA-made Polartec High Loft fabric is insanely comfortable, durable, practical and is their warmest fabric for the weight they make. 
- Make your Tahoma your own unique piece by choosing your color accents! Accents are the zipper and cord colors. Give your garment its own personal flare!
- Hand-made in Bend, Oregon

The Tahoma is as useful around town as it is on the trail or slopes. So cozy and warm walking around town or hanging out by the fire, super warm and comfortable in the backcountry and so much more practical than a puffy. You can work up a sweat in this thing and it wont wet out. It breathes so well your sweat evaporates through the fibers keeping your base layer dry. Did I mention it looks really dapper too?
 
I probably woud opt to carry the Alpha 120 hoodie on a long thru-hike, and the Tahoma for true shoulder season and winter trips. For most people its probably a little heavy and bulky for a 5 month trip. It really shines on the colder season trips. A good rule of thumb is if you are packing gloves and a beanie, you might want to pack the Tahoma too. 
 
Garment weight is 13 ounces for a men's medium or women's large. Add or subtract about 1 ounce for each size up or down. Weight may fluctuate slightly because they are hand cut and sewn, plus there are differences in batches of fabric.
