Fishing Hoodie

"Love this hoodie!!! I have two of them and this is the only outdoor hoodie I will wear while fishing. It's not too hot and will keep me warm when it's cold!! The front left pocket is perfect to place my iPhone in and secure from falling in the water of the lake. This is a great hoodie for fishing!!!!!"

Awesome hoodie

"Fits great and very warm but still light and easily packable. Used it when an early season cold front came through in NC; over pro merino 200 hoodie. I was very comfortable and can’t wait to see how it does with more wear."

— Brad M. (5/5)

Great product

"The fit and warmth of the StrongFleece 235 Zip-T Hoodie are fantastic. This is a very versatile and lightweight layer with great durability."

— Ryan V. (5/5)

Good mid layer

"Decent fit and comfortable. I usually just wear it for my main layer in Decent dry weather. Their sizing seems to be leaning towards short and fat people. I used to order everything in xxl because I have a long torso and prefer not to hunt in a crop top. These days everything just seems to get bigger around and not longer, but I digress. Like I said it’s a good mid layer especially if you can get it on sale. Not as comfortable as the old strong fleece but with current options it will have to do"

Strong Fleece

"The Strong Fleece 235 Zip-T Hoodie and Attack Pants are absolutely perfect. They are by far the most comfortable pieces of hunting gear I have ever worn. They will be my main outfit for my October Bull Moose hunt in Maine this Fall. I can’t wait to put this gear to the test."

Q&A

Does this fit like the Peloton 200 Hoodies by chance? I wear a L in those. Just trying to figure out sizing.
Yes, they both fit similarly and I personally wear a Large in both
