Grid Pro is the new name in fleece fabrics - tiny squares that trap air and thus heat - and Australian brand Mont's new Grid Pro Hoodie is a superb example of what can be done with this technology. A high warmth to weight ratio combined with super fast wicking makes for a great layering piece.

A simple garment in an athletic cut, the 3-piece hood fits snugly around the head and underneath a helmet, and the chest pocket is just big enough for essentials. Flat-stitched seams and elasticated cuffs finish off this lovely fleece. Get one on yer back!
