A Swazi favourite. This fleece hoodie sits as a mid layer when the cold moves in and something heavier goes over the top. Snug hood, high collar, extra-long tail and snug cuffs that lock the warmth in at both ends.

Fleece Hoodie
Pull it on. Layer up. The Hood does its job as a mid layer without getting in the way of whatever goes over the top. A 280gsm polar fleece hoodie built to sit under a waterproof or windproof when the temperature drops and the weather turns. Warm enough to earn its place, low-profile enough not to get in the way of whatever goes over the top.
A snug fleece hood and high collar keep the cold off your neck and head without bunching under an outer layer. An extra-long chest zip dumps heat fast when you're moving hard. Large zipped chest pocket holds your phone, your snacks and whatever else the day calls for. Extended long tail covers your back end when you bend. Snug cuffs stay where they're put and lock the warmth in. Warm, versatile and the kind of layer that gets pulled on first and stays on longest — whatever the day looks like.

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.
Really nice quality but also soft and easy to wear for work or casual, nice long body and sleeve length, would recommend 👍

Swazi Hoody review - basically a hug with benefits.
Absoluelty love this hoody. Its radiculously comfortable, radiculously warm, and makes me look like I've got my life togeather, even when I've achieved absolutely nothing all day.
The quality is spont on, the fit is brilliant, and its so cosy that taking it off feels like a personal betrayal. Perfect for cold morning, lazy weekends, and popping off to hunt wild boar for a few days in the wilds.
Only downside? I now have to explain to people why I'm wearing it for the 5th day running. But thats a them problem not a Swazi problem.
Would I recommend it? Absoluetely. Five stars, Buy one. Your other hoodies will know they've been demoted. 🤣

Disappointed
I’m disappointed that the UK summer won’t end. . I got my hood a couple of weeks ago and the weather has been too warm to wear it.
The hood is a thing of beauty. The material is so comfortable and from the cuffs to the hood fits me perfectly.
When autumn arrives I can see that I will wear it all day everyday.
It will perfectly under my Swazi waterproof so I will be warm and 100% dry.
