What is the Norrøna Women’s Femund Tech Hood?
The Women’s Femund Tech Hood is a lightweight, technical hood designed for active outdoor use where comfort, moisture management, and sun protection are essential. Built primarily for hiking and warm-weather adventures, it also works perfectly for everyday wear thanks to its soft, cotton-like feel and understated look.
This hood prioritises simplicity and efficiency over insulation and weather protection. It provides lightweight coverage for your head and upper body, helping protect against sun exposure while remaining highly breathable during movement. The technical women’s fit sits close to the body without restricting mobility, making it well-suited to hiking, travel, and casual outdoor use.
What is it made of?
Recycled Tech Polyester Fabric
The Femund Tech Hood is made from a lightweight 20-denier fabric constructed entirely from 100% recycled polyester (113 g/m²). This technical material is engineered to deliver efficient moisture transport, fast drying performance, and all-day comfort in active conditions.
Despite its technical nature, the fabric has a soft, cotton-like feel, making it comfortable enough for prolonged wear — whether you’re moving on the trail or relaxing post-hike.
Odour Control
The fabric is treated with HeiQ Fresh FFL, an anti-odour technology that helps reduce the build-up of unpleasant smells during extended use. This makes it especially suitable for multi-day trips, travel, or warm-weather activity.
Certified and Responsible Materials
The fabric is Oeko-Tex certified, ensuring it meets strict standards for chemical safety and skin compatibility. More than 50% of the synthetic fibres used are recycled, aligning with Norrøna’s long-term commitment to responsible material sourcing and reduced environmental impact.
What are its features?
Lightweight Hooded Coverage
The integrated hood offers lightweight sun protection for your head and neck without adding bulk or trapping heat. It’s ideal for exposed trails, warm-weather hiking, or everyday outdoor use where a full jacket isn’t needed.
Flatlock, Chafe-Free Construction
Flatlock seams at the shoulders minimise friction and pressure points, making the hood comfortable to wear under backpacks or during long days of movement. This construction helps prevent irritation during repetitive motion.
Quick-Drying Performance
Thanks to its lightweight, recycled polyester construction, the Femund Tech Hood dries rapidly after exertion or exposure to moisture. This keeps you comfortable throughout changing activity levels and weather conditions.
Clean, Minimalist Design
A simple printed chest logo and streamlined silhouette give the hood a clean look that works equally well on the trail or in everyday settings. It’s a functional piece that doesn’t look overly technical.
Technical Women’s Fit
The technical fit is tailored for active movement, keeping the garment close to the body for efficient moisture management while remaining comfortable for casual wear.
