The North Face Men's SDS 1/4 Zip

The North Face Men's SDS 1/4 Zip

Even those who live off the grid crave the gridded heavyweight fleece warmth of this Men's SDS 1/4-Zip pullover from The North Face. While conventional fleece jackets and midweight pullovers do a good job keeping your core warm, gridded fleece traps warm air against your skin and optimizes the thermal warmth--with up to 50% better heat retention depending on fleece fabric comparisons. The North Face optimized their SDS 1/4-Zip pullover for backpacking and climbing by adding underarm gussets and using rolled shoulder seams to minimize abrasion. This improves your range of motion and minimizes potential discomfort beneath a heavy backpack or climbing harness. If you spend a lot of time in the high country, you'll find that The North Face Men's SDS 1/4-Zip pullover is an ideal three-season utility base layer that doubles as a casual top on cool summer evenings. You'll also discover that it's an amazing value when you compare the thermal warmth to other similarly priced performance fleece tops and jackets.

• Fabric: 274 g/sq m polyester grid fleece
• Anti-pill finish on both sides of garment
• Flat-lock stitching minimizes abrasion
• Underarm gussets facilitate range of motion
• UPF (Ultraviolet Protection Factor) rated at 50
• Weight: 410 g, 14.5 oz

bought this fleece last year for my fiance, and he absolutely loves it! great ski layer, casual top, and I steal it quite often to wear around the house on chilly days. I'm getting one for myself next!

Great as a casual weekend shirt
I bought this for my boyfriend and he loves it! It looks great when worn as a shirt with jeans. He loved it so much that I bought it in every color. This style runs a little roomier than some of the other north face clothing. If you are between sizes or want a more fitted fit you may want to consider sizing down. My boyfriend is 6' 190lbs and the XL fit well but was a roomy fit, which I liked. I have washed the shirt several times and it has held up well--no pilling, shrinking or fading.

Nice pullover
Feels nice and is the right weight for a pullover. Believe the sizes are pretty accurate. I'm 6'0 180lbs and generally between a medium and large, I ordered one in each size so I've got one this is more snug and one less snug.

SDS 1/4 Zip
Comfy and warm / runs a bit large / 1/4 zip is heavy duty made - wear it over shirt / works great as an outer shell - not really wind proof - but works well! highly recommend!
