Black Diamond Alpine Start Hoody - Women's

Black Diamond shapes their Womens Alpine Start Hoody for climbers who want weather resistance that stays ultralight, breathable, and easy to pack. The hoody uses Schoeller stretch-woven nylon with Eco-Repel Bio DWR technology made without intentionally added PFAS, helping it fend off light weather while remaining highly air permeable. Its 80 gsm fabric blend of nylon and elastane keeps the feel light and mobile, which makes it a strong match for long approaches, windy ridgelines, and fast-moving alpine routes. An adjustable hood is sized to work with a climbing helmet, while elasticized binding at the hood, cuffs, and hem helps seal in fit without adding bulk. Black Diamond also gives it a drop hem for better coverage under a harness, which adds practical value when the hoody is used in technical terrain. When the layer is no longer needed, it stows into its own chest pocket, and the integrated carabiner clip loop makes it easier to attach to a harness or pack. At 181 grams, their Alpine Start Hoody delivers a highly packable softshell option that stays ready for shifting mountain weather without weighing down the kit.
