Description
For fit, we recommend sizing up.  For example, if you typically wear a medium, we suggest you order a large.

The Burgeon Highlander Hoodie is a durable, versatile layer that performs well as an insulation layer or on its own for higher output activities.  

The Highlander is recognized for its exceptional warmth-to-weight ratio as well as its packability, making it an outstanding choice for both backpacking and day hikes.  Its breathability will help dump excess heat during exertion while keeping you warm during breaks or under a shell.  Its cozy texture will ensconce you in comfort for those lazy days around the house or during a post-hike snack.

Sustainability

Sustainability: Our Highlander Hoodie is knitted in North Carolina and handsewn in New Hampshire.  US domestic production ensures compliance with high environmental standards, a cleaner electrical grid, more efficient transportation infrastructure, as well as reducing the overall distance (and carbon footprint required) to move through a global supply chain.  In addition, due to volume increases, we were recently able to get Cyberknit to switch the base material to recycled polyester.  Highlander Hoodies in recycled polyester will be available in September (Black, Navy, Green).

Made Locally

Phenomenal

I hike in Maine and New Hampshire. In addition to wanting to support a company that uses all USA materials and whose seamstresses you can see working right in the store, I know I can trust Burgeon's products. They're made right in the region I hike and backpack, so I know I can trust the products to meet my needs. Seasons are a little different in different regions, so with them right in NH I know it's what I'll need. The Highlander hoodie is one of the best pieces of gear I own--I went with the full zip to regulate body temperature and wear it pretty much every day at some point, whether outdoors being active or around the house. The handwritten note by Nick (who I've met in the Burgeon store in Lincoln) was top-notch.

So Comfy!

I’ve been eyeballing this full zip hoodie for some time. I was looking for a lightweight, breathable full zip hoodie. I prefer full zip so I can really dump heat if needed. This thing is so comfy on the skin. It’s like wearing a Barefoot Dreams blanket. I’m normally an XL and went for the XL even though they say size up. It fits perfect. 6’2 215lbs. Two things I don’t love about it. I feel the zipper is to big/heavy based on how lightweight it is. I have other lightweight jackets that have the smaller zipper and you hardly know it’s there. This zipper feels over kill. It’s not huge but I think it could be smaller. The zipper also doesn’t have a garage at the top to slide into so it’s there and exposed at your chin. I haven’t worn it enough to see if it’s going to be bothersome. Secondly the sleeves are large and loose at the wrist. When my hands are by my side the sleeves hang about halfway down my hands. About mid palm. I wish there were a little elastic at the wrist or if it just tapered. It’s still hot here in AZ so I’ll hike with it more in a few months and give it a good test but these are just my first impressions.

Highlander Hoodie Full Zip - Men's

The first piece of clothing from Burgeon that I am actually disappointed with (I own a few pieces that I'm super happy with!). The material feels thin/cheap. Not what I expected for the price.

Why have I never heard of Burgeon before now???

My Burgeon Highlander Hoodie full zip has got to be the softest, most comfortable hoodie I have ever put on - bar none! I had been trying to make an appointment to purchase a Melanzana hoodie but then I find a review of Burgeon on the YouTube channel Roots and Peaks (if you have not seen, do your self a favor and check it out at https://youtu.be/arEDBenI7QY?feature=shared) and immediately placed my order. I was not disappointed and plan to now order one for my wife.
Well done Burgeon!!! And thank you Roots and Peaks!!! Highly recommend you both!
