Hot on the hill, sweaty at the gym, layering up for a cold start — the Outdoor Research Echo Hoodie handles all of it. Ultralight, breathable, and built with active odour control, it's the 4-season base layer that plus-size women have been asking for. Available in UK sizes 18–30 (1X–4X).
Note from Rebecca, our founder:"The Echo Hoodie is one of those pieces I keep recommending because it just works. Lightweight enough to forget you're wearing it, but doing so much behind the scenes — wicking, blocking odour, protecting from UV. It's a genuine all-rounder and the plus-size fit is spot on."
ActiveFresh™ odour control — bio-based, silver-free technology that actively prevents odour build-up during high-exertion activity. Long-lasting and breathability-preserving.
AirVent™ technology — open-texture mesh construction pulls sweat away from skin and dries fast, even on the warmest days on trail
UPF 15–20 sun protection — UPF 15 in light colours, UPF 20 in dark colours
Movement-mirroring stretch — bluesign®-approved 100% recycled polyester that moves with you, not against you
Flat-seam construction — next-to-skin comfort with no chafing under a pack or harness
Thumb holes — keeps sleeves in place when layering or protecting your wrists
3-panel hood with ponytail hole — fits over a helmet or under a shell without bunching
Retro-reflective logo — low-light visibility for early starts and late finishes
Outdoor Research uses US sizing. Please use the size chart at the bottom of the page — do not rely on your usual UK dress size. If you're between sizes, we recommend sizing up for layering.
