Classic heavyweight fleece
When it comes to layering, versatility is key. The Sherpa Bhutan Full Zip Jacket is a classic heavyweight fleece, the sort of garment that easily does double-duty as a cold-weather midlayer and a casual top. So, even if you’re not out on the hills, the Bhutan’s easy-wearing style and soft, comfortable fabric makes it a great piece to wear everyday too. But that’s not to say it doesn’t deliver technical performance when needed. After all, this fleece is named after the landlocked mountain kingdom of Bhutan, found high in the Himalayas, to the northeast of India. This points to the brand’s authentic high-altitude heritage, so this hoodie’s brushed fleece fabric delivers a big dose of soft, cosy warmth. Raglan sleeves with offset shoulder seams ensure no chafing even when wearing a pack, while a full zip provides ventilation. Best of all? Every Sherpa product you purchase provides a day of school for a child in Nepal, making this a feel-good fleece in every sense

Sherpas are the unsung heroes of Himalayan expeditions. It is the Sherpas who establish the climbers’ camps, carry the loads and set the fixed ropes to the summit. Sherpa Adventure Gear was established in 2003 to pay tribute to these high-altitude heroes. But it is more than just a brand name. This is high-quality outdoor and lifestyle clothing with authentic Himalayan heritage. The company is entirely Sherpa-owned, with firm roots in Nepal, where the overwhelming majority of its products are all designed, developed and manufactured – providing local training and employment for hundreds of people. In addition, the brand is committed to educating the next generation of Nepal’s children – by building libraries and renovating classrooms, training teachers and school staff, and developing and distributing schoolbooks and resources. In fact, every bit of Sherpa gear you buy funds a school day for a child in Nepal. So, this is not just beautifully made stuff, it’s also kit with a conscience. Namaste.
