We love our overseas manufacturers, but we've always wanted to try making something here. So we did it! The Maverick Alpha is proudly made in the USA. And, we've got to say, it feels good supporting local businesses while creating rad gear for ultralight enthusiasts.

Premium Alpha Direct Fabric

If you know, you know—Polartec Alpha Direct is hard to come by. We secured a big batch of Forest Green in 90 GSM, along with limited runs of 60 and 120 GSM in select colors.

Originally developed in 2012 for the U.S. Military, Polartec Alpha Direct is the ultimate active insulation—warm when you need it, breathable when you don’t.

Why Choose the Maverick Alpha?

✔ Incredible Warmth-to-Weight Ratio – Stay warm without bulk.
✔ Breathable & Moisture-Wicking – Regulates body temperature and keeps you dry.
✔ Ultralight & Packable – Perfect for fast-and-light adventures.
✔ Versatile Layering – Wear it as a standalone piece or under a shell.
✔ Quick-Drying & Durable – Built to handle rugged outdoor use.

Which GSM is Right for You?

  • 60 GSM – The lightest and most breathable option. Great for high-output activities, but more see-through.
  • 90 GSM – A versatile middle ground. Ideal for most conditions, balancing warmth and breathability.
  • 120 GSM – Still ultralight, but offers a bit more warmth and coverage for cooler adventures.

Go Further with Maverick Alpha

Whether you're backpacking, climbing, or chasing the horizon, the Maverick Alpha is built to keep up.

***The fit is very similar to our classic Squak hoodie, except for the 120 GSM, which runs snugger than expected due to the thicker material. If you’re between sizes or prefer a looser fit, we recommend sizing up.***

Hey Tony! Thanks for the feedback! We're stoked you're loving the material and functionality of the Grid Hoodie. Sizing can be tricky, and we appreciate you letting us know about your experience. We're always looking to dial in the fit, and your input helps us do just that. We hope your son enjoys the hoodies, and we'll be ready to get you into that XXL for your next adventure! Happy trails!

Warm, light weight, and bright

I love the alpha hoodie as a mid layer for winter hiking under a jacket or for milder spring days. It’s lightweight but warm enough to fend of cooler breeezes and the bright orange color I purchased stands out (in a good way!)

Hey Trevor! Glad to hear the Alpha Hoodie is working out for your winter hikes and spring adventures. That bright orange is definitely a standout! We appreciate you sharing how it performs as a mid-layer. Thanks for being part of the community!
