At the heart of this fleece is a clever fusion of Polartec and Primaloft Active Evolve – a combination that represents a quiet revolution in midlayer design. The result is a hybrid thermoregulation system that adapts seamlessly between periods of intense activity and rest. Whether you're skinning uphill or catching your breath between runs, the Hyperfleece maintains a consistent comfort zone, providing light warmth and breathability. The addition of Polygiene odour control technology ensures the garment stays fresh over multiple sessions, so you can wear it for longer and wash it less often.

 

Durability meets responsibility

O’Neill’s commitment to sustainability, as demonstrated through its O’Neill Blue platform, is evident in every detail. The fleece is made from 100% recycled Polartec and Primaloft fabrics combined with 60% recycled waterproof ripstop treated with a PFC-free DWR finish. It comes with a GearAid repair patch, acknowledging that gear should last rather than end up in landfill. This kind of circular thinking lends the Hyperfleece credibility that goes beyond buzzwords, establishing it as a trustworthy product. It is designed for heavy use and to age well.

Visually, the FWC Peak Fire Hyperfleece lives up to its name. Its asymmetric neon zippers and bold color-blocking stand out against mountain and city backdrops alike. Reflective details offer flair and functionality. The men’s regular fit with stretchable fleece materials ensures freedom of movement and easy layering, which is crucial for active snow riders who want uncompromised agility.

“With the FWC’PEAK FIRE FLEECE, we set out to create a midlayer that adapts like no other, combining Polartec and Polygiene for lightweight warmth and freshness with Primaloft Active Evolve for dynamic temperature control. Add water-repellent ripstop zones, recycled materials and a repair patch, and you get performance that lasts. Designed to move with you, true to O’Neill’s vision as Ambassadors of Warmth.”, describes Joffrey Delfgaauw, Head of Innovation, Technology & Sustainability, O’Neill Europe the USPs of the garment.
