Black Diamond M Approach Down Hoody

The Approach Down Hoody is a clothing layer that can be worn over a shirt during cool multi-pitch routes or under a shell while ice climbing and in winter temperatures in alpine terrain. The ultra-light nylon ripstop outer material of the Approach Hoody is equipped with the revolutionary Breathable Water Protection technology from Green Theme International. This is an environmentally friendly, PFC-free DWR coating that demonstrates superior performance and durability compared to other DWR solutions. The insulation made from RDS HyperDRY goose down with a fill power of 800 provides down-soft, highly compressible warmth that easily withstands bad weather. For transport, the vest can be packed into the left chest pocket and secured to the climbing harness with the integrated loop. For 2023, the fit, design, and size specifications have been completely revised. The Approach Down Hoody is perfect for chilly autumn days, windy ridge walks, and expeditions, offering immediate readiness for use and reliable warmth in alpine terrain with its incredibly small pack size.
