We take pride in our fleeces here at Backcountry and the evolution of our technical midlayers has led to the Tricot Peak Full-Zip Tech Fleece—the perfect versatility layer. The tricot fleece is soft to the touch for comfort and breathes with you, making it an excellent choice for a midlayer underneath a ski jacket or puffy while in the high-alpine. Our favorite feature is the DWR finish, which allows the fleece to function on its own during shoulder season hikes or even spring skiing, thanks to its water-repellent characteristics.
