We tend to abuse our technical midlayers with heavy use, and the Vigor Plus Hooded Jacket is at the top of our list when it comes time to replace our fleece. Outdoor Research is known for making high-quality apparel that’s suited to a wide range of activities, and this piece exceeds our expectations. The synthetic fleece is highly breathable and stretchy for activities ranging from resort skiing to trail running—plus it’s 93% recycled to limit its impact on the environment.
