Friski Flo 2.0 Technical Hoodie Review

The Friski Flo 2.0 technical hoodie is the ultimate combination between an everyday hoodie and a technical softshell jacket. The second tech hoodie from UK-based snow-wear brand Friski, they’ve taken everything that made the Flo hoodie so popular and amped up the style and functionality to create an outerwear piece we absolutely love.

Firstly, the look and the fit. For anyone that likes a relaxed riders fit, you are sure to love this hoodie. It looks stylish on the slopes, whilst maintaining all the elements that you need to be comfortable on the mountain. If you’re not a fan of big bulky jackets, or simply want a lighter piece for springtime shredding, the Flo 2.0 is a great choice.

One thing we love about Friski are their unique designs – their thermals are some of our favourites out there. This hoodie keeps that eye-catching print within the hood as well as an understated mountain logo on the front.

In terms of functionality, it’s packed with features. Underarm ventilation maintains breathability and prevents you getting too hot and sweaty as you ski, whilst waterproof zips prevent any snow reaching your valuables.

The large kangaroo pocket on the front of the jacket is really useful, with a media pocket to run your headphones up underneath the hoodie, ideal for those who like to listen to music while they ski.

All in all, we absolutely love this hoodie. It’s more than warm and waterproof enough to wear out on late December days, while it’s increased ventilation makes it the the perfect spring outer layer. The stylish fit and design make it something you’ll look great in, whether on the slopes or in the après bar. Trust us, you’ll never want to take this one off!
