Black Diamond M Approach Down Hoody

The Approach Down Hoody is a clothing layer that can be worn over a shirt on cool multi-pitch routes or underneath a shell during ice climbing and winter temperatures in alpine terrain. The ultralight nylon ripstop outer material of the Approach Hoody is equipped with the revolutionary Breathable Water Protection technology from Green Theme International. This is an eco-friendly, PFC-free DWR coating that demonstrates superior performance and durability compared to other DWR solutions. The thermal insulation made from RDS HyperDRY goose down with a fill power of 800 provides down-soft, highly compressible warmth that withstands bad weather with ease. For transport, the vest can be packed into the left chest pocket and can be attached 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 ideal for frosty autumn days, windy ridge walks, and expeditions, offering immediate readiness for use and reliable warmth in alpine terrain with its incredibly small pack size.
