Black Diamond First Light Hybrid Hoody - Black/Black - Size L

Black Diamond redefines active insulation with the First Light Hybrid Hoody, a piece that pairs PrimaLoft® Silver Insulation Active with a body-mapped Schoeller® stretch-woven shell. Unlike traditional insulated jackets that trap heat uniformly, this hybrid design places warmth where you need it and breathable mobility where you don’t, making it a standout for climbers and ski tourers who demand performance without bulk.

Highlights

• PrimaLoft® Silver Insulation Active (60g) offers an excellent warmth-to-weight ratio and retains heat even when damp.
• Schoeller® stretch-woven nylon shell with 4-way stretch provides unrestricted movement and durability.
• Under-helmet compatible hood with low-profile design fits seamlessly under climbing or ski helmets.
• Two zippered hand pockets and one internal stretch mesh pocket keep essentials secure and accessible.
• Packable design: stows into its own hand pocket with a carabiner clip loop for easy carrying on the harness.

In daily use

On cold belay ledges or windy ridgelines, the hybrid construction shines: insulated core panels trap heat, while stretch side panels dump excess warmth during high-output approaches. The slim fit layers cleanly under a shell, and the single-pull hem adjustment seals out drafts. YKK Vislon zippers glide smoothly even with gloves, and the DWR finish sheds light precipitation. Whether you’re swinging tools or reaching for the next hold, the articulated patterning moves with you.
