We pull on the Backcountry Wander Sweater Fleece 1/2-Zip for pretty much everything. Whether we re starting the day with a mountain view or heading into town with a chill in the air, this fleece delivers couch-level coziness and trail-level performance. What really draws us to this piece is its abbreviated, boxy cut that gives it a relaxed, feminine silhouette that we can trust as a layer or a standalone top. Crafted with a faux sweater-knit face and a soft brush-back fleece interior, this 300gsm fleece feels as good as it looks. A mock neck keeps the warmth in, Lycra-bound cuffs hold their shape, and the two-tone ripstop chest pocket adds subtle contrast and secure storage. Designed to roam as far as we do, it s an easy favorite season after season.
