Men's TNF™ Essential Simple Dome Relaxed Hoodie
Pullover Hoodie · Everyday / Layering / Year-Round
The Men's TNF™ Essential Simple Dome Hoodie combines classic comfort with a fabric designed to be recycled once the hoodie has been worn as far as it can go. With a split kangaroo hand pocket, ribbed cuffs and hem, and a modern relaxed fit, this is one layer you'll want to wear year round. Heavy enough to layer under a shell in winter, soft enough to wear solo on a cool evening, and built almost entirely from circular materials so the end of the hoodie's life isn't the end of the story.
Relaxed Fit
Modern relaxed fit through the body with a slightly dropped shoulder for an easy, untucked silhouette. Cut with enough room to layer over a tee or under a shell, the fit is sized to be lived in — not sized to be dressed up. The relaxed cut moves with the body, makes the hoodie a forgiving everyday layer, and looks unfussy whether it's worn around the house or out to the trailhead.
Circular Design
Thoughtfully designed to be disassembled and recycled back into raw materials for a second generation of products at the end of the garment's life. The construction uses single-material panels and easily separated components that can be re-spun without the typical blended-fabric complications. A hoodie that closes its own loop, instead of becoming tomorrow's textile waste.
Climate Conscious Cotton
Body fabric made with Climate Conscious Cotton from farmers using agricultural practices that help build soil carbon. Cotton grown in a way that pulls carbon out of the atmosphere and stores it in the soil — the hoodie is part of the carbon cycle, not just a consumer of it. Soft hand, mid- to heavy-weight feel, and a much smaller footprint than conventional cotton.
Recycled Cotton & Polyester Body
Solid body fabric pairs Climate Conscious Cotton with 24% recycled cotton and 48% recycled polyester. The recycled cotton comes from post-industrial textile scraps; the recycled polyester comes from post-consumer plastic. Both would otherwise be in a landfill, and both keep the hoodie's overall material loop closed at the start of the supply chain as well as the end.
Darted Hood with Drawcord
Darted hood with a drawcord for adjustability — the darts shape the crown to follow the head rather than collapsing flat, so the hood actually frames the face on a windy ridge walk. The drawcord tunes the opening tight for a cold-morning cinch, or loose for a relaxed drape when the sun is up. The hood sits cleanly on the shoulders when worn down and lays flat against the back when pushed back.
Set-In Sleeves
Set-in sleeves — constructed with a shoulder seam that sits at the natural shoulder line, rather than the dropped-shoulder construction of a vintage sweat. The set-in sleeve gives the hoodie a cleaner silhouette, allows more room through the chest for layering, and lets the arm move through a full range of motion without the shoulder seam pulling across the neck.
Kangaroo Hand Pocket
Split kangaroo hand pocket on the front — the classic pullover hoodie pocket that warms both hands at once, holds a phone, and stashes a beanie or a pair of gloves when the sun is up. The split opening between the two halves means the pocket contents don't slide from one side to the other, and the depth keeps a phone from falling out on a walk.
Rib on Cuffs & Hem
Rib knit on the cuffs and hem holds the hoodie's shape, seals out drafts at the wrists and waist, and adds a tailored finish to a relaxed silhouette. The rib recovers from being pushed up the arms or scrunched at the waist, so the cuffs and hem don't bag out after a season of wear. The heather rib is built with a small amount of elastane for stretch and recovery.
Embroidered Chest Logo
Embroidered logo on the left chest — tonal stitching that adds a small, unfussy brand mark without the weight or stiffness of a printed graphic. Embroidery doesn't crack, peel, or fade the way a screen print does, so the logo stays sharp through years of wash cycles. The only branding on the hoodie, and intentionally subtle.

End-of-Life
Designed for disassembly and recycling into raw materials
Machine Wash Inside Out
Machine wash cold with like colors. Use a mild detergent. Turn the hoodie inside out to protect the embroidered chest logo and to reduce pilling on the body fabric. Wash with similar fabrics to avoid pilling from rougher materials like denim or canvas. Cold water preserves the cotton fibers, prevents shrinking, and uses less energy than a warm cycle.
Tumble Dry Low
Tumble dry on low heat, or lay flat to dry. Remove from the dryer promptly to minimize wrinkles. High heat will shrink the cotton, weaken the elastane in the rib, degrade the recycled polyester, and degrade the embroidered logo. Low heat or line drying extends the life of the hoodie significantly. The 360 g/m² body is heavy enough to take a while to dry — plan for a longer dry cycle than a lightweight tee.
Iron
Iron on low heat if needed. Avoid ironing directly over the embroidered logo — use a pressing cloth or iron the hoodie inside out. High heat on the embroidery can melt or distort the stitching. The mid- to heavy-weight body fabric rarely needs ironing if the hoodie is removed from the dryer promptly and folded.
Do Not Bleach
Do not use chlorine bleach or fabric softener. Bleach breaks down cotton fibers, fades the embroidered logo, and degrades the recycled polyester. Fabric softener coats the cotton fibers with a film that reduces breathability and absorbs moisture less effectively. A mild detergent and a proper wash cycle handle odor and stains without either chemical.
Storage
Fold and store in a cool, dry place. Hang on a wide wooden or padded hanger if hanging, to avoid stretching the shoulder seams or distorting the hood shape. A standard wire hanger can leave pointed shoulder bumps on a relaxed-fit hoodie — folding is usually the better call. Keep the hoodie away from direct sunlight in storage to prevent any future fading of the dyed fabric.
Recycling at End of Life
When the hoodie reaches the end of its wearable life, return it through the brand's take-back program to be disassembled and recycled back into raw materials for a second generation of products. The Circular Design construction is what makes that possible — single-material panels and easily separated components that can be re-spun without the typical blended-fabric complications. The hoodie's afterlife is also Circular Design.
