Product Information

Full details

The Mountain Equipment Stonescape Sweatshirt is designed for climbers and outdoor enthusiasts who prioritize durability and comfort during active pursuits. Crafted from 350gsm organically grown cotton, this crew neck garment provides reliable warmth and excellent freedom of movement; however, because it is made from heavyweight cotton, it is not intended for high-intensity aerobic activities in wet or humid conditions where synthetic moisture-wicking materials would be more appropriate.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is the Stonescape Sweatshirt water-resistant?

No, it is made from organic cotton, which is a natural fiber that absorbs water and does not offer moisture-wicking or water-repellent properties.

Can I wear this while climbing?

Yes, the flexible knit and regular fit are specifically designed to accommodate the movements required for climbing.

Is the cotton ethically sourced?

Yes, the product uses organically grown cotton, which is processed with reduced environmental impact compared to conventional cotton.

How should I store the sweatshirt?

Store it folded in a cool, dry place to prevent the fabric from stretching under its own weight.

Does the sweatshirt provide UV protection?

While the heavy 350gsm fabric offers some natural protection, it is not rated as a specialized sun-protective garment.

Troubleshooting

Slight shrinking after the first wash

Cotton naturally shrinks slightly; to minimize this, always wash in cold water and avoid the tumble dryer.

Pilling on the exterior surface

Use a fabric shaver gently on affected areas, keeping in mind that surface pilling is common with high-cotton-content apparel.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality, heavy-weight organic cotton construction
  • Excellent durability for rock climbing and outdoor use
  • Non-restrictive fit allows for full range of motion
  • Minimalist design with comfortable flatlocked seams
  • Sustainable material choice

Cons

  • Cotton retains moisture and dries slowly
  • Not suitable for high-exertion activities in damp environments
  • Heavier than synthetic performance fleece options

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Stonescape Sweatshirt, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using cold water to preserve the integrity of the organic cotton fibers.
  2. Detergent: Use a mild, eco-friendly detergent; avoid harsh bleaches or fabric softeners that may degrade the knit structure.
  3. Drying: Air dry the garment by laying it flat in a shaded area. Avoid high-heat tumble drying, which can cause shrinkage and damage to the ribbed cuffs.
  4. Storage: Fold the sweatshirt rather than hanging it for long periods to prevent the shoulders from stretching out due to the fabric's weight.
  5. Layering: This piece pairs best over a technical base layer to keep the cotton away from skin if sweating heavily, and fits comfortably under most mid-weight climbing shells.
