Lil’ Squak – Kids’ Grid Fleece Mid-Layer Hoodie
Why We Made This
Everything you love about the Squak—just smaller.
The Lil’ Squak is built for little explorers on the move. Made from the same polyester micro‑grid fleece, it keeps little adventurers warm, dry, and comfortable while they run, climb, and explore.
The adjustable hood replaces the need for a hat (parents, you’re welcome), and thumbholes help seal in warmth when the weather turns chilly.

I bought two hoody style base layers. One for me and one for my son. Mine didn’t fit as expected, I’m 6’2” and 245#. I ordered an xl and though it fit, out was tighter than I enjoy, so the excellent people at squak exchanged me for a XXL and it fits perfect! I’m going to buy another one for the both of us. My son loves his too ! He wore it skiing today and he looks comfortable in it. I live in Colorado and have some other brands of similar style products and I think this one is my new favorite. Would recommend for the service AND the product. Overall very impressed . Plus the thumb holes really just are the best.
Hi Jimmy! Thank you for the kind review! We're thrilled to hear that both you and your son are enjoying your Squak! We are always happy to help with sizing exchanges. We're glad the XXL fits perfectly and that the thumb holes are a hit. Thanks for recommending us and for choosing Squak. Keep Rockin' The Squak in Colorado!
The original squaks are unbeatable.
We are so happy to hear you think they’re unbeatable. Sometimes you just can’t top a classic that works exactly the way it's supposed to!
Women’s Dawn – Grid Fleece Mid-Layer Crewneck In sage green is perfect. Love the color, the material is so soft. I didn’t want a hood, so this is perfect. I love it! Alli is the BEST. Awesome customer service. Thank you Alli for your help!

As you may have already guessed, I preside over a gaggle of unwashed little savage cat terrorizing menaces whose shoes and pants constantly have holes in them, no matter how new they are. Squak fleece hoodies one of the few items I have found that can withstand the abuse and torture.
Hey Matt. Haha, a 'gaggle of unwashed little savage cat terrorizing menaces'—we love it! Sounds like your crew truly puts our Squak fleece hoodies to the ultimate trail test, even if that trail is just your living room. Stoked to hear they're holding up to all the wild adventures!
Since receiving these sweaters (one for myself and each of my kiddos (7 and 9)) a week ago, we have worn them everyday! They are not bulky, keep you comfortable, and easily to fit into a day pack. These sweaters have kept us warm on 40 degree (F) days, when it is a bit rainy/dark, in strong winds and as just every day wear in Alaska. They are great as a mid layer or top layer, depending on the weather. I will definitely buy these sweaters again when my kids grow out of them or if additional colors come out. These sweaters are a new necessity for all of our adventures and cozy stay at home days too.
Hey there! Stoked to hear your Squak sweaters have become such a necessity for your family's Alaskan adventures and cozy days! So glad they're keeping everyone comfortable and warm through those 40-degree days, rain, and strong winds.
