Product Insights & Style Tips
The Backcountry Cedars RWS Merino Lt-Wt Baselayer Hoodie for men channels the energy of slalom gates, park laps, and apres-ski as three legs of the same sport. Merino wool traps warmth, wicks moisture, and resists odor without ever reading synthetic against the skin, while recycled nylon fibers back up that performance with durability to survive a full season of layering.
This looser-cut fit loosens as you push the pace, and raglan sleeves give you room to reach and swing. The regular silhouette moves with you without clinging, easy to wear under a shell or over a base layer. Flatlock seams prevent chafing on long tours, and recycled nylon fibers reinforce the knit’s structure so it holds up wash after wash.
RWS-certified merino wool is sourced responsibly, aligning with Backcountry's commitment to performance fabrics that feel good next to the skin. The Cedars hoodie blends warmth and breathability with everyday versatility, making it a go-to base layer for active days and low-key moments after the lift.
