Purpose Built
We like clothing you don't have to think about. Designed with simplicity and movement in mind, the Black Spider Hoody does the job of regulating warmth and moisture management while you focus on the important things.
The Best Fabric
Polartec Power Grid is the gold standard grid fleece. Its bi-component knit design features geometric constructions. The next-to-skin surface is hydrophilic to absorb sweat vapor and transfer it outside. Then the outer surface disperses moisture for more efficient evaporation.
Tested To The Extreme
From the first ascent of Hispar Sar, to the 2,000th ascent of Stairway to Heaven, the Black Spider Hoody has been there and done that. Proven over years of grueling trips, some of our customers are still wearing the originals from fourteen years ago.
Made In America
With fabric knit at Polartec's mill in Tennessee and being cut and sewn in the US, you can be confident that this garment was manufactured in an environmentally and socially responsible way.
Recognized By Outside Magazine
Outside Magazine called the Black Spider Hoody, "Beautifully Simple" adding it to their list of The Only Winter Clothes You Need.
