Overview

An American classic, reengineered.

The Stratum Waffle Hoodie takes the traditional American hoodie and elevates it through material and structure. A thermal waffle knit creates air pockets between fabric and skin, insulating through architecture rather than bulk. The result is warmth that breathes and mobility that remains unrestricted.

Anchored by Australian merino wool and reinforced with cotton for strength and comfort, Stratum regulates temperature, manages moisture, and dries quickly while maintaining a smooth, durable hand. The wool performs under load and in damp conditions. The cotton ensures everyday comfort and resilience.

Designed as part of a modular layering system, it transitions seamlessly from shell environments to daily wear. Under technical outerwear it becomes a performance layer. On its own, it carries enough structure and texture to stand independently.

Cut and sewn in the USA, the Stratum Waffle Hoodie is a modern interpretation of a classic, built for integration across environments rather than confined to one.

Modern Heritage

Classic waffle knits have anchored rugged wardrobes from frontier climates to factory shifts to military cold weather systems.

Their textured grid delivered insulation without weight and mobility without compromise, securing their place as a foundational layer.

Stratum brings the heritage of waffle knits into the 21st century with technical performance and durability.

Foundational Warmth

Engineered as a next-to-skin layer, the waffle structure insulates through trapped air rather than fabric mass. It stabilizes body temperature during static exposure and adapts as output increases, making it a dependable core layer in variable conditions and a worthy alternative to prevalent synthetics.

Casual Capability

Equally capable as a standalone base layer or a light pullover, the Stratum Waffle Hoodie is flexible across temperatures and environments.

Natural Engineering

Merino wool delivers thermoregulation, odor resistance, and fast drying performance at the fiber level. Paired with cotton for strength and wearability, the blend forms a natural alternative to synthetic base layers.

Balanced Performance

In the heat, a UPF 50 rating helps minimize sun dangers while the breathable waffle knit keeps you cool. When temperatures drop, the wool wicks away dampness from your skin to keep you dry and avoid convective heat loss.
