The Bay Ridge fleece pullover from KAVU is one of those timeless warm layers that you'll be reaching for over and over. It's similar to their Winter Throwshirt but slightly pared back in comparison – and you might prefer the neck and sleeves without the elasticated binding of the Throwshirt. Otherwise it's got the same half-zip entry, jersey-lined handwarmer pockets and drop-tail hem, with soft 7.5oz recycled polar fleece that offers a nice balance of warmth without bulk. A neat detail is the patch pocket on the left chest, complete with easy-access Velcro closure

Now here’s an origin story for you. Back in the early nineties, fishing boat skipper Barry Barr was fed up with wearing cheap trucker caps that got snatched off his head in storms, never to be seen again. He decided to make a super-durable cap that wouldn’t blow off whatever the weather, and he did it by stitching the webbing material from a Teva sandal all the way around the crown. Turned out his ‘Strapcap’ was a hit, and KAVU was born.
From humble beginnings flogging Strapcaps out of the boot of his car in Seattle, Barry’s since expanded to produce a whole array of durable outdoor kit with a laid-back, van-lifer vibe. The KAVU range takes in everything from sling bags to swim shorts, and while they’re serious about producing great gear that’s made to last, they’re also not afraid to have a laugh. Their prints are bold, playful, and in some cases so loud that they’ll take some considerable chutzpah to carry off – but that’s what makes them so much fun.
And if you’re wondering about the name, KAVU is an aviation acronym that stands for ‘klear above, visibility unlimited’. It means it’s a perfect day for an adventure.
