It runs a 320GSM cotton-faced brushed fleece in the standard FORMER hood fit: dense enough to hold its shape through a winter of being thrown in the back of the car, brushed on the inside so it's soft from the first wear rather than after ten washes. Surplus is a muted military green that sits somewhere between olive and khaki depending on the light.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eKey Technical Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e320GSM Cotton-Faced Brushed Fleece:\u003c\/b\u003e A 70% cotton \/ 30% polyester blend with the cotton on the outside and the brushed loop on the inside. The weight is what stops a hood going shapeless — this one keeps its body and its colour where a 240GSM tee-weight fleece would sag at the cuffs by mid-season.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFront Graphic Embroidery and Franchise F on the Hood:\u003c\/b\u003e The Legacy logo is stitched, not printed, so there's nothing to crack or peel.

Drawcords are capped with FORMER-branded metal aglets rather than heat-sealed plastic.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eWhy You'll Love It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eThis is a standard-fit hood, not an oversized one — if you want the big boxy silhouette, look elsewhere in the Former range. It suits anyone who wants a heavyweight fleece that actually lasts: the car-park hood after a cold morning surf, the one you live in through winter, the one that still looks right in two years. Sizing runs true, so take your usual. Craig Anderson, Dane Reynolds, Austyn Gillette and Dylan Rieder started Former as a rider-owned outfit out of Ventura, and the build quality is where that shows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eBuy Now at Welcome Boardstore for the best in authentic Surf gear and apparel.
