So you’re traveling and you want to get THE most comfortable and durable hoodie around. Where do you start? Well, first off, consider merino wool. It is widely known to be one of the best technical fabrics around. It is light but also retains heat when it needs to and it breathes on warmer days. It also naturally wicks away moisture from the body. It is wrinkle resistant. And last, but certainly not least, it resists odor. This is an important one. And for my money I would say the best travel hoodie is the Icebreaker Quantum Merino Wool Hoodie. Icebreaker is basically the king of everything merino wool and this hoodie is the very best available.
When you’re traveling you want something that will work in many environments. When its cold at night, this hoodie retains heat very well. When its a warm day the Icebreaker Quantum actually helps regulate temperature and keep you relatively comfortable. And it also will stay fresh smelling for many, many wears. This is the big plus of merino wool. You can get away with bring just one hoodie on even month long trips. You won’t stink!
And when you do decide to wash it, the merino wool fabric on the Icebreaker Quantum hoodie is super quick drying. These are all reasons why I think this is the absolute best bet for anyone serious about traveling. But the quality on it (beyond the fabric) is amazing. Quality zipper pulls, excellent double and triple stitching make this a light but super durable hoodie. You’ll be enjoying it for years.
The Icebreaker Quantum Merino Wool Hoodie comes in both a men’s and women’s version that are listed below.
