Meet The Hood, it's our top-selling Swazi garment, what makes it so iconic you ask? It has this effect that once you put it on, you'll never want to take it off... It's that go-to hood that you chuck on when you're having a couple of beers in the shed, or in the hut. Whether you're out for a fish, or taking the dog for a walk, you know that when you've got your Hood you'll be sweet as no matter the weather.
The Hood has had a bit of a tweak, now with a more discrete pocket you can stash your stashables within reach. The plushest 280gsm polar fleece is what makes it so snug and toasty and it features a long back to keep those vitals covered no matter the weather.
You're not a true Swazi fan if you don't own a Hood. We're not talking about the one you pinched from your mate or partner (yeah, we know you do it).

They could do with being a bit longer in the body and the cuffs a little looser and the pocket a bit bigger to fit a smart phone

Most comfortable fleece I've yet worn. Perfect for around the house or as a mid layer when it gets cold. Would also be great in a heavier weight, maybe 340g as an outer layer. Just a thought!

Been using Swazi from the time of inception. Do not purchase any other outdoor wear at all. I've still a Bush Shirt i purchased from Haddad's Otorohanga 25 years ago. Still wear it.

Love it. It’s super warm. I bought it for hunting and was told by the wife it’s not to worn to work. Well it’s to warm to leave at home so it’s keeping me toasty at work as well
