Best Use: Waterfowl

Building on the success of the StrongFleece line-up, the new StrongFleece 290 Full Zip features an improved fit for layering and high-output activities. This highly versatile mid- to outer-layer fleece offers extreme breathability and durability not typically found in traditional fleece styles. Waterfowl hunters can wear this layer in various conditions, anywhere from the boat to the blind, without sacrificing breathability. The high durability and water resistance lends itself well to a wide range of terrains and weather conditions.

While many StrongFleece styles feature hybridization for extra breathability, the WF 290 Full-Zip features the heaviest weight fabric throughout, to maximize warmth.

This mid-layer top is designed to go over a base layer and under an outer layer, all in the same size. Only upsize if you measure between sizes or prefer a loose fit.

*For an individual measuring size: XL

Base Layer: Peloton 118 LS Crew – XL
Mid-Layer Fleece: StrongFleece 290 WF Full Zip – XL
