Pace Alpha™ Direct 60 Crew Pullover

Pace Alpa 60 weight pullover

While I have only the used 60 Crew Pullover once, I found the weight (grams) and warmth incredible. It was a cool damp/wet few days paddling and when paired with my rain jacket or wind jacket the combination was perfect. Less than half the weight of my 100 weight fleece. Perfect weight to warmth ratio. Thanks Nick, you were a pleasure to meet and so easy to deal with. Great Canadian company.

Perfect for my needs

The Crew Pullover is proving to be the Alpha Direct garment I've been searching for for quite some time. I'm mainly on a bike and have pretty long arms (+3 ape index) so thumbholes and long sleeves are critical for my use case. It's been really hard finding a top that had enough sleeve length that I didn't feel like I was going to be popping stitches when I was riding in the drops while also not making me feel like a little kid running around in my dad's shirt with sleeves to my knees at camp. The zipper (I run hot & need to dump as much air as I can sometimes) sleeve length, and elastic on the cinch points all just come to together to nail the sweet spot for me between form and function...and the crafstmanship is top notch! Really happy with this purchase. I own Alpha Direct pieces from a number of shops and Lobtree is unquestionably among the best.

All round excellent.

Been a fan of polartec alpha for a while now and owned garments from a couple of American manufacturers. However I was keen to find a 60gsm weight garment with a zip neck and no hood as my 'ideal feature list'. My Lobtree gives me those features, a great fit, really good build quality and I even like the Dark Navy colour as an added bonus. I had never heard of the company before a google search threw up the name but I very glad I took a chance based on the website information and pictures, I've used the fleece on a couple of weekend backpacks and its already a favourite. I'm still happy with my previous polartec alpha gear, but I have a new favourite midlayer and if (when!) I decide I want something else I will be checking Lobtree first.
