Black Diamond BD Approach Down Hoody - miesten toppatakki, musta, XL

With 800-fill-power HyperDRY™ goose down, the BD Approach Down Hoody delivers exceptional warmth at a weight that feels almost nonexistent. This technical alpine layer is built for cold belays, ski tours, and everyday winter wear.

Overview

This hoody combines a 10D lightweight nylon ripstop shell with a DWR finish and RDS-certified HyperDRY™ down insulation. The result is a highly compressible, water-resistant jacket that traps heat efficiently while remaining breathable during high-output activities. A helmet-compatible hood, elasticated cuffs, and an adjustable hem seal out drafts, while the slim fit layers cleanly under a shell.

• Entire jacket packs into its own right hand pocket for easy storage
• Helmet-compatible hood with single-pull adjustment for quick fit
