Initiate Your Return or Exchange:

To start a return, log into your customer account and navigate to your order history. Select the order and items you wish to return, then submit your request. Once processed, we’ll provide a prepaid return shipping label.

Please note that there is a $20 USD (or equivalent in CAD, approx $27 CAD) fee for the return label, which will be deducted from your refund amount.

Alternatively, you may return the items using a carrier of your choice at your own expense.

Great to use all year around for any outdoor activity. Love the lightweight, breathability and warmth. For the winter worn usually in combination with Merino Long Sleeve Tee feel free like a bird (no more thick middle layers anymore!). Love it, waiting for a new color in my wardrobe!

I just love this hoody! It's so lightweight but warm, dries fast and takes almost zero space in my backpack. I literally live in this hoody and plan to get at least one more.

Packs small

This hoody packs down small, slipping easily into your bag without the bulk but providing dependable insulation when you need it. Perfect for layering or wearing solo, it’s your must-have for staying warm without the weight.

Recycled Fabric

Our recycled fabric is sourced from nearby Italy, helping us reduce our carbon footprint and support a cleaner planet. By choosing recycled materials, we’re making a positive impact on the environment.

Sweat wicking

Moisture is quickly lifted from your skin and spread thinly across the fabric for rapid drying—just what you need in a technical baselayer or midlayer.

Izjemna

Tale pohodna flis jakna je res popolna v vseh pogledih. Na dotik je neverjetno prijetna in mehka, tako da že ob prvem stiku daje občutek udobja. Vizualno je izjemna – eleganten dizajn in odlična prileganje naredita pravi vtis, medtem ko skrit majhen žepek poskrbi, da imam vedno pri sebi tisto, kar potrebujem. Jakna je tudi prijetno topla, kar je ključnega pomena za hladnejše dni. Takoj me je prevzela – kombinacija udobja, izgleda in funkcionalnosti je preprosto nepremagljiva

Compilmented color!

The breathability and the feminine cut of this jacket are the things I especially like about it. Also I’ve got a compliment on the beige color. It can seem impractical at first, but it goes literally with every other color and as the fabric is lightweight, it is incredibly quick-drying, which means you can quickly wash it without worrying it will not be dry by the next morning.
