Description
The front and hood of the sweater is knitted extremely big and the boiled back to its rights size. This technique to make clothing for mountain people and seafarers alike was a great way to obtain unequalled warmth, water and wind resistance. The Boiled Hoodie Laced comes with a Spirit of Amundsen expedition patch on the upper sleeve. Get your Amundsen Boiled Hoodie Laced today, find your color and place your order now.

Some might state that buying a hoodie for 249€ is beyond worth for what one can expect from a hoodie. Can the quality, fit, comfort and looks add up?
Well – After going through plenty of high-end-hoodies in my years I can with certainty say that this hoody goes beyond my expecations and if anything, I would claim they are underselling the hoodie. The moment I tried mine on, a feeling of relaxation, calmness, and attitude toward live changed (I kid you not, it was and still is a crazy feeling). Regarding possible usages, I got so surprised by the versitiliy:
– I use as a comfort hoodie inside (+20celcius) with a merino t-shirt under it without any issues (I have worn it for 4 hours straight inside, now writing this and it´s a pure pleasure)
– I use as outside on shorter errands just by itself, without a jacket in (-2celcius) and it works like a charm. It´s not 100% windproof, but it indeed resists the cold breezes we get here. I wore it solely for a work day, both inside and outside, mixed temperatures.
– I use it as under a jacket for longer walks or time out. When I get warm, I zip up the coat.
The best part is that I wear one of these “sheep hats” with wool covers over the ears and the hoodie itself is big enough to cover everything up, and it also goes high enough to protect your neck, so you don´t need any scarf BUT, works just good enough without the hat too without looking oversized. Not sure how Amundsen managed to design this beauty but yes, they sure did!
I would recommend this product to anyone no matter if it´s for adventure or just everyday use, I feel forced to since I´m not even sharing this with my girlfriend I have to buy a second one.

This wool is well treated, it does not scratch, it does not tickle the skin. At a size of 193 cm, the size XL is ok for me. Maybe the sleeves could be a bit longer… Great for an expedition or a city when it gets cold and you need protection against wind and cold. Solid construction.

I exactly can repeat what Max Urban said. Maybe one more litte story. I used the hoodie to sit outside and watching into a fire. Unfortunately the hoodie got dirty from ash. I tried to clean up the hoodie but I made it even worse :-(. I was so deeply sad, because it happend shortly after buying the hoodie. But then something amazing happend. Over the time washing the hoodie it cleaned itself. Now it looks like clear blue as before.
