Black Diamond W First Light 1.0 Stretch Hoody

The Women's First Light 1.0 Stretch Hoody from Black Diamond is built for alpine climbers and ski tourers who need an active insulation layer with real breathability built into the fabric itself, not just the construction. PrimaLoft Gold Active insulation is mapped across the hood, chest, and arms for targeted warmth at exposure zones, while a blended merino wool backing on the body and sleeve panels adds moisture management and breathability in the areas that work hardest. A 20D stretch nylon ripstop shell carries a PFAS-free DWR coating for light weather resistance, and an adjustable helmet-compatible hood adds protection on cold starts or open ridgelines. Two zippered hand pockets and an internal mesh pocket complete the feature set.
