Worn on its own in cool weather or worn as a layering piece in cold weather, we like how the Outdoor Research Insulated Hooded Plus Jacket has pieced together eco-friendly fabrics into a versatile, lightweight hoodie. The innovative Vertical X ECO SR insulation mixes Repreve polyester made from recycled plastic bottles with Sorona polymer, which is partially plant-based to reduce our reliance on fossil-based materials. Easily packable and now available in plus sizes, it's our go-to puffy jacket for mild temperatures and a mid-layer that we can fit under a shell or keep in our pack for extra warmth when we stop for lunch, reach the summit, or kick it at the campsite.
