HOT ! Skwala Thermo 350 Hoody

Built for the days when your fingers tingle from releasing happy trout into icy water, the Skwala Thermo 350 Hoody brings warmth and comfort in almost any fishing conditions. As the heaviest base layer Skwala makes, it’s built from 95% hand-selected New Zealand Merino wool and finished with a full hood and extra-high collar to keep you fishing when things get truly bitter. With a fluffy, fleeced wool interior and a durable knit face exterior, this is the shirt that shorn sheep wish they could wear. Sizes: Medium (37\"-40\" chest), Large (41-44), X-Large (45-48), XX-Large (49-52).

Performance

Merino wool insulation is the benchmark for cold-weather comfort, and Skwala leans into that instead of trying to out-engineer nature. The Thermo 350 Hoody is built from high-quality New Zealand wool, blended with just enough synthetics for stretch, then spun and woven into yarn for a durable, ultra-comfortable baselayer. Merino naturally outperforms synthetics for comfort, heat retention, moisture-wicking, and odor resistance, making it a reliable layer for long, cold days and multi-day trips.

Why We Use It

We use the Thermo 350 Hoody because it’s the warmest baselayer in the Thermo lineup, and it’s built for the kind of fishing where quitting early isn’t part of the plan. We love the fleeced Merino interior for comfort against skin, the snug-fit scuba hood for layering under outerwear, and the high collar for extra warmth when fully zipped. And when it’s day 4 of a cold trip, Merino’s natural odor resistance keeps things… socially manageable.
