What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:“I reach for the Hepton Pullover Hoodie when I know I’ll be working hard. The waffle fabric dumps heat fast, dries quickly, and still feels comfortable when I throw a pack on or stop to catch my breath.”We’ve all had those days when the trail points sharply upward, the pace spikes, and staying dry becomes as important as staying warm. The Hepton Pullover Hoodie is built for exactly that kind of effort. With a lightweight 3D waffle structure designed to move moisture as fast as we generate it, this layer keeps us comfortable through steep approaches, rocky scrambles, and long climbs where breathability matters. The relaxed hood fits easily over a cap without restricting movement, while deep kangaroo-style pockets give us a spot to warm hands or stash small essentials between bursts of activity. When intensity dips, the quick-drying polyester fabric prevents the chill that usually comes with sweat-soaked layers. Whether we’re breaking trail or moving fast above treeline, this midlayer keeps the rhythm steady and the comfort dialed.
