Akita
£34.99 £49.99
The Akita is a highly breathable outer layer for fast-paced activities like mountain biking and trail running on frosty mornings and autumn days.
- Lightweight, fast-drying and breathable fleece
- Streamlined active fit for fast-paced activities
- Soft brushed inside and durable wind-resistant outer
A super versatile lightweight fleece, the Akita combines a soft, brushed interior with a durable, smooth-face outer. This densely woven outer blocks out wind more effectively than traditional fleece fabrics, making it more suitable for wearing as an outer layer. We’ve chosen an athletic fit and a stretch fabric that moves with you, providing full mobility without the jacket flapping or getting in your way.
The stretch fabric and streamlined fit mean the Akita could easily be used for climbing and scrambling. And its smooth-feel outer and low-profile elasticated cuffs make it useful as a lightweight mid-layer for slower-paced activities like hillwalking.
The full-length zip means you can vent right down to your base layer to cool down. The Akita has two zipped handwarmer pockets which double up as spacious internal dump pockets for stuffing your hat and gloves mid-activity. Minimal, low-profile seams layer neatly and are comfortable under rucksack straps.

Waist - Measure around your waist at the narrowest part.
Hips - Standing with your feet together, measure around your hips at the widest part.
Sleeve - With your arms relaxed by your side, tilt your head down and ask a friend to measure from the bone at the base of your neck, over your shoulder and down your arm to the fold at your wrist.
