Description
This is a Woobie Hoodie from Woobie Gear. This DWR treated hoodie is made out of the same type of material that the tried and true woobie is. While the nylon shell is already water and wind resistant, the DWR coating adds to that and makes this a great layer for cold and windy days. The hood is adjustable and the sleeve cuffs and waist are elastic for best fit. There is also a small front, kangaroo, pocket for your hands. Overall this is a great hoodie for general wear while out and about town and general outdoor use.
The Sumpftarn camouflage pattern was developed during World War II in Germany for use in swampy and heavily vegetated environments. It featured a combination of green, brown, and tan colors to blend into the surroundings. After the war, variations of the pattern continued to see some use and remained popular among collectors and enthusiasts. While not widely used in modern military contexts, Sumpftarn has influenced the design of contemporary camouflage patterns, highlighting its historical significance in the evolution of military attire. Sumpftarn was used by the German military from 1943 all the way till the 1980s.
Interior material color will either be Black or matching to the exterior camo color. Slightly undersized, if in between sizes please order the larger size.

Great color, note that these pictures are under an extremely bright white light so the color on site will look much brighter. The material is far more thick in the right places compared to other woobie hoodies. Can’t wait to wear it this winter

Awesome looking woobie, however, keep in mind these are Chinese sizes. I normally wear a XXL, but went with a XXXL instead. Maybe I need to stop working out because it fits like an XL. If this was offered in a XXXXL I would have swapped it out. A little tough to get on, but doable. I can get away with wearing just a T-shirt underneath. Please specify manufacturers sizing on aftermarket items.
