BackcountryHero Dirt Hoodie - Women's
Item # BCCZ28C
Why We Built The Hero Dirt Hoodie
We designed the Hero Dirt Hoodie to be the perfect layer for mountain bike rides where we need a little extra coverage. An adjustable hood and zippered arm vents let your body breathe, all while you pedal comfortably in soft nylon fabric that's abrasion-resistant. And with performance stretch for mobility and a wicking finish for moisture management, the Hero Dirt Hoodie will never cramp your ride style. We also borrowed the idea of a rear zippered pocket from jerseys, offering you a secure spot for low-profile essentials.

This jacket is a great lightweight layer. Perfect for throwing on at the top or before/after your ride. The vents are really smart. My biggest complaint is the hood. It’s too small to not have a ponytail hole. So basically it just serves as a weight to uncomfortably pull the neck backwards. Also the back pockets are nice in theory but cause the same weight problem as the hood. Would love to see a version without a hood!

Used so far mtn biking and ski touring. Love it. I have not used the pockets much yet, but if needed, they can hold some small objects. Size wise,True to size overall , I ordered a small, I can usually wear XS or S, depending on brand , etc. In this, Small was large on me, sleeves were long. XS ordered, perfect, so I could say true to size for the most part. I'm 5'1 and a 1/4 haha, small petite build . Ordered the atlantic deep and metal colors, so far. :)

Unzip the zipper around the neck before you put this thing on or you won’t get it over your head! I love the orange color and it feels like a great light weight hoody and I look forward to testing it on the MTB and hiking trails. The fabric is cozy and I’m stoked on the 3 pockets in the back (one zippered). I don’t love the thumb holes (too small and tight, maybe my arms are too long or something) but luckily I don’t have to use them so it’s a nice option if you’re into that. I’m honestly a bit wary of the zipper quality after the initial impression, they’re kind of dainty, but time will tell. I find the hood a bit small to me but I appreciate that it’s low profile and doesn’t feel like it’s choking me when I’m not using it and it should pair well with a light shell. I usually don’t prefer to have hoods on anything but my shells. I like the fit and length, I have a long torso and this comes right to my hip line. I’d say it’s true to size. I’m usually small/medium. It’s snug but not too tight, it stretches and moves with you which is how I prefer my layers. The orange fabric is a bit sheer if you care about that sort of thing.
