Outdoor Research Deviator Hoodie - Men's

Breathable Deviator Hoodie delivers active insulation for year-round mountain layering

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

“This is one of my favorite active layers because it adapts so well to different outputs. I wear it under a shell for ski days and on its own for hikes and approaches. It traps heat when I slow down, breathes when I’m moving, and never feels clammy—even on long, sweaty days.”

We grab the Deviator Hoodie whenever our plans involve moving through the mountains, no matter the season. Designed by Outdoor Research for high-output pursuits, this layer strikes the balance between warmth and breathability, making it just as comfortable on uphill grinds as it is during windy transitions or cool descents. It’s the piece we reach for when conditions—and intensity—are constantly changing.

Polartec insulation manages heat and moisture efficiently, keeping us warm without overheating as effort levels rise. A fixed hood helps block cold wind, while the smooth, durable exterior holds up to regular use under a pack or shell. With built-in odor control and smart pocket placement, the Deviator Hoodie stays comfortable and functional from trailhead to summit and everywhere in between.
