Welcome to the world’s favourite piece of Swazi gear. The Hood polar fleece hoodie. From chasing deer, to stalking beer at your local, The Hood’s the top you can wear almost anywhere doing anything.
While cotton hoodies are fine for trips to town, hunters know they funnel wind straight to your chest outdoors and are cold when wet. This fleece hoodie has a high neckline and a hood that cinches tight to keep the cold out and warmth in – until you need to dump heat via the extra-long zip.
The large zipped chest pocket takes your phone and more. It’s also handy for muesli bars, predator calls, braid scissors, etc. And it’s longer aft to cover your ass when you bend for spent brass or to take the backstraps off a fat hind.
Most of us have a couple of Hoods – partly since everyone from WAGS to mates tend to “borrow” them. But mainly because they’re so damn versatile. Stash your spare in the car or boat for an emergency dose of 280gsm polar fleece when the temperature drops.

Fabric & Care
280gsm Polar Fleece
You've not worn a decent fleece garment until you have tried one of Swazi's fleece garments. Unlike other brands of fleece, Swazi's 280gsm high-quality, plush Polar Fleece is built tough but comfy. No scratchy, squeaky fleece here, it's quality all the way
Layer
Mid or Outer Layer
Our number one selling fleece garment, the Swazi hood, can be worn pretty much everywhere. On those really cold days, you can wear it as a mid layer and chuck a Tahr XP, a Wapiti, or Torrent over the top. One of the most versatile garments in our range, the boys love 'em, and the girls pinch 'em, which means another opportunity to buy it again in a different colour.
Conditions
MIld/Dry/Cold
Super tough for outdoors work on the farm, it is a great addition to your next hunt, on the sidelines or around the campfire.
Warm, fluffy and bullet proof. Should have a higher RRP!

THE HOOD - THE BEST!
I love my HOOD! The same super warm material as the Dough Roaster, which I love as well! During the cold windy nights when I'm out rabbit culling it's great to be able to regulate my body temperature by pulling the three quarter zip down, or when the wind is howling I can zipper up to my chin and tighten the hoody down over my cap, whilst not obstructing my head lamp. And the hood doesn't restrict visibility. The zipped chest pocket on the left is cavernous is size, hell of a handy and doesn't get in the way of my rifle stock. 100% recommended! Well done Davey and Team Swazi.

My favorited new hoodie.
I wear this hoodie all the time. Super comfortable and we’ll made. I always struggle to find jackets etc. that fit my arm length well and this one was perfect. Definitely a buy!

I wear it daily!
This fleece is perfect! We are heading into Autumn here in Alberta, Canada and this hoodie is perfect for this time of year. It will work perfectly under my Kagoule, Windriver or Cairnsman too. The thing I like the most about my Swazi garments ( I own 5 ), is the long backside to cover your butt. It really does make a difference in cool, windy and wet weather! Thanks!
