Black Diamond Women's First Light 1.0 Stretch Hoody-FIG

The Black Diamond Women's First Light 1.0 Stretch Hoody in Black is a highly versatile insulating midlayer designed for active mountain pursuits where warmth, breathability, and freedom of movement all matter. Whether you are heading out before dawn or wrapping up a long technical day on the wall, this hoody adapts to your pace and the conditions around you.

At the core of its performance is PrimaLoft Gold Active Insulation, positioned strategically in the hood, chest, and arms. This migration-resistant fill maintains its loft and thermal properties even when you are pushing hard, so warmth stays where you need it.

Complementing the insulation, blended merino wool panels on the back and sleeves add a natural breathability that synthetic-only layers simply cannot match. The merino component wicks moisture, regulates temperature, and keeps you across a wide range of output levels.

The shell is crafted from lightweight 20D stretch nylon ripstop with a DWR finish, giving you resistance to light precipitation and wind without adding bulk. The stretch construction throughout the garment follows your body through reach sequences, scrambling moves, and long approach strides without pulling or binding. Practical details round out the design.

The hoody fits cleanly under a shell or harness and layers easily over base layers. The clean Black colorway pairs with any kit and keeps the look understated and ready for any mountain objective. For women who demand performance without compromise, the First Light 1.0 Stretch Hoody is a reliable companion from the trailhead to the summit and back.
