Black Diamond Men's Alpenglow Pro Hoody

Just like our popular Alpenglow Hoody, the Alpenglow Pro Hoody offers a break from the rays on marathon belays, with UPF 50+ fabric and Polygiene odor control. Plus, the Pro version features Green Theme Technology's Empel PFC-free DWR, which adds a level of weather resistance for mountain adventures.

The Black Diamond Alpenglow Pro Hoody offers ultimate sun coverage as well as water resistance for mountain missions with unpredictable weather. Featuring UPF 50+ fabric, we've also added GTT's revolutionary Empel Technology, an environmentally friendly PFC-free water-repellant finish that is superior in performance compared to any other C-6, C-8, or C-0 DWR. The Alpenglow Pro also sports a 1/4 zip opening for regulating body temperature, HeiQ Pure underarm mesh panels for extra breathability, a concealed chest pocket, thumb-loops, and an over-the-helmet compatible hood, making this hoody an essential layer from the desert to the alpine.

• Empel PFC-Free DWR, Stretch, UPF 50+
• Zippered chest pocket for storing valuables
• Elasticized over-helmet compatible hood
• Harness compatible length and fit

Here at Black Diamond it's all about climbing and skiing. We share the same experiences that you do on rock, ice and snow and these experiences push us to make the best gear possible for our worldwide family of climbers and skiers.

What began with a backyard anvil and a hammer has now grown into a global company with offices on three continents. Black Diamond is a company that's not just for rock climbers and skiers, but one that stands for the spirit of the sports we live, their values and goals, past, present and future. Since 1957, our innovative gear designs have set the standard in numerous areas. This is partly the result of dedication, desire and diligence on the part of an incredible team of people. It's also a product of the fact that each of us are climbers and skiers ourselves.

We're a company of users. It's who we are. We're the greatest dreamers about what could be, and the harshest of critics about what exists. Because of this, the creation of Black Diamond is a process that will never end. The company today is more committed than ever, thanks to the many people here in the U.S., at Black Diamond Europe and at Black Diamond Asia whose limitless energy and hands-on involvement have created a promising future for all climbers and skiers worldwide.
