Introducing a Merino wool fleece that outperforms the rest. This innovative Merino grid fleece delivers lightweight warmth, breathability and odor resistance that synthetic fleeces can’t match. Soft on skin yet tough enough for the coldest, windiest days, a Cloudripper grid fleece jacket or pullover is what your layering kit needs.
The Power of Wool Grid Fleece
Grid fleece is a technical fabric designed to keep you comfortable when you're on the move in cold weather. The waffle grid pattern on the interior creates pockets of warmth while reducing bulk, making it perfect for layering for skiing and snowboarding.
Unlike most grid fleeces on the market, the Cloudripper Full Zip Hoodie, Half Zip Pullover and Crew Neck Pullover have a high Merino wool content, so they're naturally odor resistant, moisture wicking and temperature regulating. You get the benefits of grid fleece plus all the natural benefits of Merino wool.
Each Cloudripper Grid Fleece has a 100% Merino wool interior, so only natural fibers are against your skin.
A Seriously Warm, No-Stink Grid Fleece
If you've worn Merino clothing before, you know one of the benefits is odor resistance. No one wants to smell bad or have to do laundry on a ski trip, and with Cloudripper grid fleeces, you won't have to worry.
These wool fleece jackets are ready for whatever you throw at them this winter—from windy chairlift rides to powder laps to frigid dog walks.

Women's Cloudripper Merino Grid Fleece Full Zip Jacket
"I bought this fleece as a midlayer for downhill skiing and an outlayer for nordic skiing and running. It is absolutely wonderful. It keeps me warm but also sheds heat when I really get going. Plus I grab it to wear to the store much more than I expected to."

Men's Cloudripper Merino Grid Fleece Full Zip Jacket
"This is a wool blend of an R1... which is exactly what I wanted. It is soft against the skin, manages moisture and warmth great. The only downside is that wool is bulky/heavier than plain old fleece... but the tradeoff is totally worth it."
