Ventus- named from the Latin origin word for ‘wind’, this lightweight insulated active hoodie vents incredibly well all while maintaining its static insulation properties.

The Ventus Active Hoodie brings a new meaning to "ultralight backpacking". No longer do you have to sacrifice warmth to get a lower pack weight! This hoodie is something you'll have with you whether you're backpacking, biking, traveling, snowshoeing, or during any other part of your active lifestyle!

Utilizing innovative 3DeFX Insulation we were able to create a hoodie that weighs only half of what other traditional insulated hoodies weigh while retaining high warmth value and active body-mapped breathability! Both the 3DeFX insulation and durable Ripstop Nylon fabric of the hoodie stretch with you as you move. This causes tiny coils (much like trampoline springs) to expand- allowing more heat to escape and the hoodie to breathe with you when you need it. When the hoodie fabric and insulation isn't being stretched with your motion, these coils contract and create an incredible amount of loft and warmth! This means you'll be able to stay comfortable regardless of your activity levels!

Active breathability is further enhanced by targeted & body-mapped placement of insulation and fabrics. The uninsulated underarms are perforated for targeted ventilation in the hottest part of your torso.

An unobtrusive insulated hood and lightweight coating on the exterior fabric give the Ventus Active Hoodie the ability to also act as a great wind breaker with amazing temperature control!

A hidden inner pocket allows you to easily pack up the Ventus for storage in a pack or luggage when you aren't using it. You can compress this hoodie down to the size of a softball, so between the ultralight weight and amazing packability, you'll have no problem taking this with you on any adventure. You'll never be left high and dry without a warm layer again!

Start experiencing the outdoors more light and comfortable now with the newest game-changing insulated hoodie available! No more compromising, stay at a comfortable temperature anywhere and on any type of adventure!

3DeFX Technology

Four types of spiral-shaped fibers are intertwined to give 3DeFX insulation more loft and stretchability than traditional microfiber synthetic insulations. This insulation stretches with you as you move, allowing heat to escape & keeping you at the perfect temperature!

Basically what this means is that you get a warmer insulation that weighs less & helps regulate temperature.

Love it!!

The fit is great, if you like an athletic fit. Well made, light and warm. My only complaint is there are no pockets. I knew there were none when I bought it. But I wish there was at least one. But I would still recommend it to anyone.

Amazing

I love the Ventus hoodie. I want to buy another one. The fit is perfect. Warm and cooling when active. Everything I want in an active hoodie.

Great product!

Excellent hoodie - warm and comfortable and perfect for outdoor adventures. Definitely order based on the sizing guide. I ordered my normal size and had to return for a size up (which matched what the sizing guide told me).

Still not delivered.

Since over two weeks l’m waiting for my Ventus Active Hoodie.
This is my only feedback: Still not delivered.
What OutdoorVitals have to say about it?
Payed 40$ for delivery!!!

Sorry to hear your gear hasn't been delivered! We typically get all orders shipped within 2 days. Unfortunately there's nothing we can do once the gear leaves our facilities and is in the hands of mail carriers. Have you reached out to support@outdoorvitals.com for a tracking number?

Ventura Active Hoodie

The fit and function of this hoodie is spectacular. I’ve used it on trail runs from below freezing up to 45 degrees (F) without overheating, and hardly sweating. It looks good enough to wear out and around town, and fits so well that I have a hard time not wearing it all week. By far my favorite hoodie.
