Give Old Man Winter a run for his money when you pull on the Stoic Men's Merino Comp Anorak and march out into frigid, freezing-cold weather without a second thought. Buttery-smooth merino fabric not only provides winter-weight insulation against chilly temperatures, but this fabric also breathes with ease so you feel comfortable, not clammy underneath. Alpinists can rejoice in the existence of a versatile mid-layer that has both comfort and warmth to burn.

  • Merino composite material breathes, wicks moisture, and helps resists gnarly odors that build up over a long bouldering, skiing, or hiking season
  • A touch of spandex allows the composite material to stretch so this top delivers plenty of mobility and flexibility
  • Nylon and spandex blended in with merino fabric allows this merino top greater durability, flexibility, and resists damaging pilling over time
  • Close-to-skin fit keeps the merino fabric close enough to retain body warmth while still allowing space for layers underneath
  • Backcountry.com is the exclusive US distributor for Stoic products

Bottom Line: Ultimate merino layering fit for cold-weather living.

It survived a winter climbing trip in the dirty south. everyday sweat, chalk, and blood. The thing never took on a rancid smell. Im impressed. GO STOIC!

depending on the Ape factor, i would lean to XL. check the more detailed fit dimensions on the size chart, height is not enough data to say for sure. See Size? just under the select options bar....

stoic anorak

By:
February 23, 2012

stoic anorak on Baldy. Tour softshell pants on bottom. This is the perfect midlayer, wore it while hiking up in the cold, zips down low enough for ventilation when it gets warm, zip it up and put on the hood when you stop or get in to a cold spot. Kept it on with just a wool shirt underneath from our 6am start all the way to the summit.

Warm & Toasty

By:
January 4, 2012

I picked up the "shale" version off of SAC and absolutely love it. This is my first experience with Stoic's composite material and it feels great; reminds me of neoprene. I'm 5'10" 195lbs and the large fits perfect just like all of my other Stoic gear! I have an 18" neck when it comes to dress shirts so I was pleasantly surprised that this guy zipped right up! The only complaint that I have would be the styling of this piece. If you're wearing this to keep warm you would probably have it zipped up but if you unzip it to just wear it around town then it looks sloppy due to the extra material built into the hood.

Stoked for Stoic

By:
December 29, 2011

This is an awesome mid layer. I love its warmth and comfort and the fit true to size, I'm 6-5 and an xl fits perfectly. The slimmer fit is ideal for layering, much less bluky than a hoodie. This will be an all around season user for me, with a base merino layer I can wear it untill the high 20s and by itself w just a T-shirt pretty much any time. I would reccomend this to anyone who is looking for a great mid layer.

Lots to like

By:

I love the fit and feel of this anorak, it does make for a great base-layer and is plenty warm on cold days and has been adequately breathable for the warmer days. Love the hood and the overall style. I wish this had thumb holes and I wish they had a wider variety of colors.

Great Layer!

By:

This piece is good as a mid layer under a down sweater when out and about when temps are in the 20's. Could be a nice outer layer when temps are more mild. Overall been great so far. Nice and soft. Would recommend!!

XL anorak is .95 lbs. this is a heavier layer, that is great on its own, or as a great layering piece in cold weather.

So far So good

By: Backcountry.com Employee

I needed a new midweight layer, and decided to check out some of Stoic's line. I've worn this mostly as a layer while skiing over a next to skin, and haven't noticed really anything; I guess that's good. The fit I felt was a little longer than I was interested in, and it's not the softest merino I've ever worn, but that's easily forgotten. We'll see what kind of abuse it can take when I start climbing with it.

Overall, it's a decent midweight layer that looks like you're wearing an enlarged Crown Royale bag...if you choose purple.

Edit: I'm 5'9" 150lbs, and the Medium fits me perfectly (as in slightly loose). Enjoi!
