The ADVANCE Hoodie Light from the Swiss paragliding specialist ADVANCE is a lightweight, everyday hoodie created for pilots who want to carry a touch of flying spirit into daily life. Combining a clean, technical design with practical comfort, it fits just as well on the take-off field as in the city.
Designed by a trusted Paragliding brand
ADVANCE is known worldwide for precise engineering and pilot-focused details in its wings, harnesses and accessories. This same philosophy is transferred into its clothing line: the Hoodie Light is not just casual wear, but a piece that reflects the brand’s aviation DNA, colour accents and logo placement while remaining discreet and wearable every day.
Lightweight comfort for travel and flying days
As its name implies, the Hoodie Light focuses on low weight and packability. It is ideal for pilots who need an extra layer before or after a flight, during travel to the mountains, or for cool evenings at the landing field. The soft fabric aims for a good balance between breathability and warmth, so it can be worn over a T‑shirt without feeling bulky.
Typical details include an adjustable hood, a full or partial front opening (depending on the exact version), and comfortable cuffs that keep the sleeves in place even when handling gear. A practical cut provides freedom of movement for ground handling, packing a wing, or simply relaxing with other pilots after flying.
Clean design with pilot identity
The design of the ADVANCE Hoodie Light is understated yet clearly linked to the brand. Colour contrasts, discreet logos and a modern, athletic silhouette make it easy to combine with jeans, hiking trousers or technical clothing. This makes the hoodie suitable for both flying days and everyday urban use, allowing pilots to express their passion without looking overly technical.
Practical features for active use
Depending on the specific size and production batch, the hoodie typically offers practical pockets for small objects such as keys, mobile phone or gloves. The lightweight fabric construction is intended to be easy-care and quick-drying, which is particularly useful when travelling or during vol-biv adventures where every gram and every item counts.
Because the Hoodie Light is designed as a lifestyle and light functional layer rather than a heavy thermal garment, it works best in mild to moderately cool conditions, or as an intermediate layer under a shell. Pilots who value minimalism and flexibility will appreciate this configuration.
