Altitude Hooded Zip

I Love my Altitude Hooded Zip! Like some reviewers said, the sizing runs a bit smaller than other brands (more like the sizing USED to be 30 years ago or so....), maybe Aussies aren't growing larger like the rest of us are lol. I'm 6foot tall and 175 pounds and ordered a large, which fits snug and close to my body, which is perfect.
Like all of my IoMerino products I've bought through the years, this is built to last and I look forward to years of use.
Shoot, I'm still wearing a hoodie and a couple of scarves I bought a dozen years ago when it was called IoBio....

Awesome gear A+++

Amazing quality garments, lightweight and breathable yet keep me really comfortable in cold weather. The design and fit feels luxurious and some really nice colours to choose from as well. Delivery was quick, sizing accurate and price good. Would highly recommend and will be back for some other colours soon!!

Fabric Guide

While Merino is an amazing natural fibre, not all Merino fabrics are created equal. At ioMerino, we make our own fabrics, using only the best quality fibres, and to very specific specifications that make the most of the natural benefits of Merino. All of them are 'Merino rich’. No cheap blends passed off as Merino. No cheaper scratchy fibres or synthetic substitutes to save money. No unethical production. And each fabric is made for a specific purpose. So if you see something with a small amount of elastase or nylon added, you can be sure it absolutely needs to be there to enhance the natural stretch and durability. 

It took every bit of our 140 years of experience in the wool industry to perfect our fabrics, but we think you’ll agree the end result was more than worth the effort.

Ethically Made. Ethically Sourced. Perfectly Natural.
