A light and fast drying stretch fleece jacket for climbing, hiking and mountaineering.
Mountain Equipment says:
Among our lighter fleece layers, the Lumiko offers breathability, fast drying performance and an excellent warmth-to-weight ratio for year-round use. One of our most versatile jackets, it's often used for everything from trekking and hill walking to ski touring and alpine climbing.
Made from 93% recycled materials, the performance stretch fleece is soft and highly wicking, while the ribbed construction reduces weight and bulk without compromising on warmth. Cover stitched seams ensure prolonged next-to-skin comfort, even under a pack or harness or after building up a sweat.
When needing shelter from cold winds or glaring midday sun, the low-bulk hood provides optimal coverage for the head and neck and fits neatly under a helmet, perfect for alpine walls or winter climbing. The slim, Active fit and low-profile cuffs are designed to reduce bulk and layer well, while excellent stretch means you can navigate complex ground without restriction. The full-length zip lets you dump heat when working hard or quickly layer up as the evening lengthens. A zipped chest pocket secures essentials, such as snacks or a phone.
