Description
The Korda Patch Hoodie – Dark Olive offers a lightweight, highly breathable alternative for anglers who find traditional heavyweight fleece hoodies bulky or restrictive during active bankside sessions.
Crafted from premium 100% loopback French terry cotton, it provides an airy, relaxed fit that moves naturally with your body when casting, pushing barrows, or unhooking fish. The unbrushed loopback interior traps core body warmth while promoting active airflow, preventing you from overheating during hectic match days or mild weather shifts. Styled with inspiration from the popular Mindset range, it features subtle Korda patch branding, a comfortable crossover hood, a classic front kangaroo pocket, and a timeless dark olive colorway that effortlessly pairs with jeans, combats, or joggers.

Pro Tip
Maintain Active Airflow: If you tend to run hot while active around your swim, use this loopback cotton hoodie over a lightweight t-shirt. The unbrushed loops on the interior absorb moisture and dissipate excess body heat much faster than brushed fleece, keeping you dry and comfortable when setting up camp or walking the banks.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does loopback French terry compare to standard fleece hoodies?
Standard fleece hoodies have a brushed interior that insulates heavily, holding heat in and often feeling thick. Loopback French terry uses unbrushed loops of thread on the inside, creating an airy fabric structure that offers lightweight warmth, superior breathability, and total freedom of movement.
How does the fit run on the Korda Patch Hoodie?
It features a relaxed, slightly looser cut than Korda’s heavy winter hoodies, providing plenty of room for active movement and effortless layering over a t-shirt or long-sleeved base layer.
How should I care for this 100% cotton hoodie?
To preserve the 100% natural cotton fibers, shape, and dark olive color, wash on a cool 30°C cycle with mild detergent and allow it to dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
