For those on the quest to find a technical, lightweight layering piece, the Delta LT is your holy grail. Made from a waffle-patterned synthetic fleece, this minimalist hooded midlayer is quick-drying and air-permeable—a perfect combination for big tours (and big sweats) in the backcountry. It’s definitely thin but provides just enough warmth, working best as a midlayer paired with a baselayer and a shell. Its regular fit, full-zip style offers plenty of room to groove.
