Testing gear is always fun, but it\u2019s awesome when the right piece comes your way at just the right time and becomes an instant favorite. 7mesh hit the nail on the head, setting me up with their new Spruce Hoody just as late fall\/early winter conditions hit British Columbia.<\/p>\n

The Spruce Hoody is an ideal outer or mid-layer for cool rides, offering excellent heat and moisture regulation. It\u2019s impressively warm while remaining thin and lightweight, the fit worked very well for me and its lean hood can fit over a helmet for extra weather protection. This hoody is a priceless piece of kit for cool, dry rides!<\/p>\n

7mesh Spruce Hoody \u2013 Construction and Features:<\/h2>\n
<\/a><\/figure>\n

The Spruce Hoody is made from a new WTV 200 fabric, a lighter version of 7mesh\u2019s WTV 300 (featured on the Chilco Anorak<\/a> I reviewed a few years ago). WTV 200 is a thin but lofty waffle-constructed fabric. The WTV 200 offers better venting of heat and moisture versus WTV 300, keeping you from overheating when you\u2019re pushing the pedals hard. One thing this fabric does not offer is waterproofing \u2013 no level of water resistance is claimed for the Spruce Hoody. \u00a0<\/p>\n

The Spruce Hoody features a full front zipper with a fleece chin guard. The waist hem and cuffs use slim elastic binding to keep them fitting snugly in a lightweight manner. For storage, the hoody includes two zippered hand pockets. String pulls on the main zipper and pockets ensure easy operation with gloved hands.<\/p>\n
