Why We Like The icebreaker Merino 260 Quantum Long-Sleeve Zip Hoodie
icebreaker's slim-fitting Merino 260 Quantum Long-Sleeve Zip Hoodie provides comfortable insulation for fall hikes and winter ascents, thanks to its techy full-merino wool composition. Whether we're layering this midlayer under a ski shell or donning it over a technical tee for a cool-weather hike, the temperature-regulating and moisture-managing properties of merino wool offer warmth while we work and prevent us from sweating out. icebreaker updated the shape of this iconic jacket to offer greater arm mobility and reduced chafing while traveling with a pack.

Good, with some caveats
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my second purchase of this Hoodie. It's so comfy, and strikes the right balance between warm and breathable. Now that negatives. 1) I miss the double zipper on older versions. Unzipping from the bottom made it comfy to sit down in without bunching up 2) The inside fabric of the pockets is possibly the thinnest fabric I've ever seen on a garment - thinner than the fabric anywhere else. I'm not sure why that design decision was made, but it means that the pockets very quickly get holes in them if you put anything hard/with a sharp edge in (e g. Keys, change). This makes the pockets a bit useless for anything other than an old napkin, or some small thin gloves(?) 3) It must be a selling point for someone, because it seems ubiquitous in the line, but I don't understand the thumb holes in the sleeves. The sleeves are extra long to make the thumb holes work better, but when you're not using the thumb holes, it means that you just have extra long sleeves, and the cuffs rub/get wet/get worn out much more quickly than they otherwise would. I've started rolling the cuffs up to avoid this, but I'd much rather buy a product without the thumb holes. I've literally never found occasion to use them, and think they're much more of a negative than a positive on net. If my hands are cold, I'll wear gloves. Overall it is a really great hoodie, and I think you'd be hard pressed to find something better in the merino wool space. Just a few questionable design decisions that hopefully will be amended by the time this one wears out and it's time for a new one!

Quality has diminished Odeon previous model
Bought this as a replacement to one I had for a few years. Loved wearing it on airplanes and chilly mornings around the house. The new one I bought is quite noticeably a different quality. The fabric is thinner. Zipper was full metal on previous one. Now it's plastic. The overall quality just feels...less. Of course the price tag is EXACTLY THE SAME. Go figure. Had the same issue recently with another outdoor gear company. If these companies are going to send us less, charge us less!!
