Arc'teryx Color Block Toque – Midweight Hiking Beanie for Moderate-Cold Conditions | Black Sapphire/Vitality

Overview

The Arc'teryx Color Block Toque is a midweight hiking beanie designed for moderate-cold days. Its balanced blend of natural and synthetic fibers delivers warmth, softness, and a clean, versatile look that works under a hood or helmet. Feel the soft fleece against your skin as you transition from dawn chill to sun-warmed ridgelines, with a color block that adds a touch of outdoor-ready style.

Materials and construction

Tech Wool fleece blends wool with recycled polyester to provide warmth without bulk. Wool yarns are RWS-certified and sourced from humane, non-mulesed sheep, offering responsible sourcing alongside comfort.

• Natural Fibre: Textiles made from natural fibres deliver softness and comfort against the skin.
• Synthetic Fibre: Engineered materials add durability and performance during variable outdoor conditions.

Fit, warmth and style

The wide cuff traps heat around the head and ears, while the flat knit yields a clean, finished look. At 23 cm in height, the toque offers a longer, more relaxed fit that layers well with hats or helmets.

Field notes and care

One size fits most, with materials chosen for warmth, softness, and responsible sourcing through the RWS program. Recycled polyester also contributes to reduced waste in manufacturing, aligning with Arc'teryx's sustainability goals.

In practical terms, the toque pairs easily with helmets or hoods and maintains its shape through movement, offering a reliable layer when conditions shift from cool to crisp.
