First Lite Origin Hoody

Designed to function as both an early-season outer layer and a late-season mid-layer garment (rated for temperatures down to 20° F), the First Lite Origin Hoody is a versatile hooded sweatshirt that is appropriate for virtually all hunting pursuits.

The sweatshirt is made from two-layer, temperature-regulating 37.5 Technology synthetic fleece to which an odor-control treatment has been applied, and it features a large kangaroo pocket, a left-side chest pocket and an integral facemask.

The Origin Hoody is available in three solid colors (Dry Earth, Ash Grey and Conifer) and in three of First Lite’s camouflage patterns (Specter, Fusion and Cipher). MSRPs run $160 (solid colors) and $170 (camo). For more information, please visit firstlite.com.
