Apparel details
Built for cold mornings, outdoor work and anyone who wants more warmth than a standard sweatshirt can deliver, the Independent Trading Co. EXP40SHZ Heavyweight Sherpa-Lined Full-Zip Hoodie combines substantial fleece with a soft sherpa-lined interior.
The 8.5-ounce cotton-blend fleece exterior provides a durable, smooth surface, while the 5.5-ounce polyester sherpa lining extends throughout the interior for dependable warmth. Together, the two layers create a heavyweight 14-ounce construction without turning the hoodie into a stiff work jacket.
A full-length antique nickel zipper makes layering easy, while rib-knit cuffs and waistband help hold in warmth. Reinforced split-stitch sewing throughout adds durability, and the generous fit leaves room for comfortable movement and additional layers.
With a clean black exterior and contrasting natural sherpa lining, this hoodie works equally well for everyday wear, jobsite layering and customized crew apparel.
