Snow Peak Heavyweight Waffle Zip Parka

Knitted from a dense, robust cotton fabric, the Snow Peak Heavyweight Waffle Zip Parka in Charcoal solves the problem of flimsy mid-layers that lose their structure over time. Its deep waffle grid texture traps insulating air pockets around your core while allowing excess heat to vent during movement. Built with thermal warmth and durability at its heart, this full-zip hoodie works equally well as an outer layer on crisp mornings or tucked under a shell during colder outings.

Key Features

• Heavyweight 100% cotton waffle knit fabric for substantial thermal insulation.
• Deep waffle texture engineered to trap warmth while maintaining breathability.
• Full-length front zip for fast ventilation and easy layering.
• Spacious double-layer hood providing extra protection against cold draughts.
• Sturdy ribbed cuffs and hem to help hold the garment shape and lock in heat.

At Urban Industry We Recommend These For

• Cool-weather camping and late-evening warmth around the campsite.
• Daily winter commuting as a comfortable, heavy-duty mid-layer.
• Weekend outdoor relaxation paired with durable trousers or denim.

Fit & Sizing Recommendations

• The brand notes that this style runs as a relaxed, slightly roomier cut for easy layering.
• Snow Peak advises opting for your regular size to keep a comfortable, unrestrictive fit over base tees.
• Heavyweight cotton knit drapes cleanly while giving plenty of room through the shoulders and arms.

Washing & Care Instructions

• Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle to preserve the deep waffle texture.
• Reshape while damp and dry flat to prevent the heavy cotton knit from stretching.
• Avoid tumble drying on high heat to prevent natural garment shrinkage.
