Last year this was my October upper body set up:
FL Wick 150 SS
Kuiu Peloton 97 QZ
Kuiu Strongfleece 260 Hoody
Arc'Teryx Cerium LT Hoody
OR Helium II Rain Jacket
The Strongfleece 260 was wayyy to hot to wear moving, even with temps near 0. So, I'm wanting something lighter in that slot. I've also added a Peloton 97 hoody to the fold, as I would like to have that to knock the chill off my neck/head when hiking in just my SS base and the 97. So now, I have this:
Sitka Merino Core Lightweight QZ SS (custum piece, shout out to Rugged Thread)
Kuiu Peloton 97 Hoody

OR Helium II Rain Jacket
I'd really like to have the blank be piece with hand pockets, that was very nice around camp, and I do not want a hood as my 97 has one and my puffy has one. I currently have these that meet the criteria:
Kuiu Strongfleece 210 - I like this but the arms are tighter than I'd like.
Kuiu Kutana Hybrid - Really like this, but it may be heavier than I need. Probably warmer than the 260 I took last year, but, being a full zip I could vent it easier?
And these that don't meet the criteria:
Kuiu Peloton 200
Sitka Core Midweight
Anyone have any recs on a midweight fleece with hand pockets and no hoods? Probably a non hunting brand, though I may have looked over some hunting options.
Edit: I've also considered taking my Peloton 97 QZ and Sitka Mountain Jacket to combine in the role of that primary mid-layer and add a windproof layer. Together they weigh 18 oz.
