The 686 Waterproof Team Men's Hoody is a pullover softshell with a waterproof face, a soft fleece backing and a loose, easy fit. It wears like a regular hoodie but holds up to snow and wet weather, so it works solo on mild days or as a midlayer beneath a shell on storm days.

Why we like it:

It looks and feels like an everyday hoodie, right down to the ribbed cuffs and hem, yet snow beads up and rolls right off.

Features and Functions:

A lightweight three-layer infiDRY softshell does the work here, with a polyester fleece backing that's soft against your skin and stretches as you move. Grommet vents under the arms let heat out, and a hood drawcord and external cord lock dial in the fit. Ribbed knit cuffs and hem give it a classic hoodie finish. Storage is a hidden-zip hand pocket design plus a Velcro sleeve pocket for your pass, and an inner key clip keeps keys from wandering.

Fit and Sizing:

Loose and roomy, with space for a thin midlayer, while the ribbed cuffs and hem keep the generous cut from letting in drafts.

Bottom Line:

Best for skiers and riders who live in hoodies and want one that can handle a snowy day without soaking through.
