Spyder Men's Speed Fleece Hooded Jacket Storm

The Speed Fleece Hooded Jacket is a versatile mid-layer built from 88% recycled polyester and 12% elastane stretch terry fleece. It works as an insulating layer under a shell on the hill, or layered for transitions between conditions and après-ski. The brushed-back fleece traps warmth without bulk, and the 4-way stretch gives you movement when you need it.

Why we rate it

It's genuinely stretchy underarm and across the back—you'll notice the difference when reaching or turning. The recycled fabric means you're not adding to landfill, and it's made PFAS-free, which matters if you care about what goes into the water. YKK zippers on the centre front and hand pockets won't jam or fail mid-winter. The hood fits over a beanie and pulls tight without cutting off your hearing.

Who it's for

Skiers and snowboarders who layer smart: intermediate to advanced (3–5) on any terrain, comfortable in mixed conditions. Works for anyone who wants a mid-layer that actually stretches, not one that rides up when you move. Standard fit suits regular body shapes; size up if you run broad through the chest.
