Blocker’s NEW Performance Hoodies for turkey hunters are your next necessity
Muskegon, MI (February 12, 2026) The hooded sweatshirt was invented in 1930 in the USA for laborers and athletes who spent time outside during chilly weather. Nearly 100 years later, the average person has a pile of hoodies in the closet, and this includes hunters who chronically wear hoodies while in the field, scouting, or crashing on the couch after a long day in the field.
While the hoodie looks about the same, the materials vary from straight cotton to blends, microfiber and fleece, and numbers of other mixed concoctions. There are all kinds of different cuts and levels of insulation to choose from, too, but one thing is for certain, the outdoor lifestyle demands hoodies.
Turkey hunters are no different when it comes to hoodies, so it’s welcomed to have designs with turkey hunting in mind – the appropriate camouflage patterns coupled with the right amount of stretch and dimensions that avoid bulkiness.
The folks at Blocker are like the rest of us when it comes to hoodie wearin’, but given their strong desire to tweak hunting garments and make them perfect, they did just that and crafted two unique hoodie options any turkey hunter will immediately fall in love with.
The NEW Blocker Lightweight Performance Hoodie is ideal for hunters looking for featherlight, moisture wicking, breathability. This hoodie excels in warm weather but can certainly be worn under an outer layer such as the Blocker Leafy Pullover Jacket for a tad more insulation. The 3-piece articulated hood works exceptionally well when scanning for birds because unlike conventional hoodies, it will not slip around and block your vision or bind on your cap.
Other features include a built-in facemask that can be worn behind the neck when not in use, as well as interior Lycra thumbholes to keep sleeves in place. Flatlock seams provide smooth comfort.
Blocker’s NEW Midweight Performance Hoodie is the perfect turkey hunting version of the conventional hoodie template. The smooth polyester outer fabric boasts a warm, super comfy brushed fleece lining for additional insulation. The Midweight Performance Hoodie has the same 3-piece hood design as the Lightweight hoodie, with the addition of classic drawstring adjusters as well as a kangaroo pouch pocket.
To top things off, Blocker added their S3® Anti-microbial finish to both the Lightweight and Midweight hoodies to prevent odor. Nobody around will notice this feature, but that’s sort of the point, isn’t it.
