Just what I was looking for

The Franconia turned out to be a great garment. I bought the garment for my wife, who needed a middle weight hiking hoodie. Not only is it beautiful (she loves the blue), but it has inside pockets to store gloves, front chest pockets for easy access to sunglasses or cell phone for a quick photo. The fabric on the inside is soft and comfortable. It works as an outer layer on milder days but will be a great inner layer when the temps are low or the winds are high. Five stars all the way!

Good for wind

Wore it for a bit in a windy hike. Warm, good wind protection, perfect for a mid layer, and the length for additional coverage is great. I wear it around town and the only downside is that I wish there were lower front pockets in the outside, not just the inside and the chest pockets.

Great midlayer

Bought this for my wife and she loves it. Loves how it is forming fitting so that it works well under all types of jackets. She also loves the longer back as it completely covers her ski pants and keeps out any breeze and his the hut fits under her helmet. Highly recommend!
