If you’ve ever felt stuck in a creative rut—whether you’re writing a song, producing a track, painting, or just brainstorming—sometimes the best thing you can do is step away from the screen and get outside. There’s something about fresh air, movement, and a change of scenery that resets your brain in a way that sitting at a desk just can’t.
Science backs it up, too. Studies show that time outdoors boosts problem-solving, enhances focus, and even helps with stress, which is the enemy of good ideas.
But let’s be real: getting outside is way more appealing when you’re warm and dry. That’s where the Craft ADV Explore Collection comes in. These jackets, fleeces, and vests are built for movement, designed to keep you comfortable without weighing you down. Whether you’re heading out for a hike, a quick city walk, or just need a solid layer for an impromptu jam session at the park, this lineup has your back.
ADV Explore Pile Fleece Jacket
This fleece is the kind of piece you’ll reach for on crisp mornings or cool studio sessions. It’s soft, breathable, and made from recycled polyester, so it’s a sustainable option that keeps you warm. A chest pocket and zippered side pockets give you space for essentials, like your phone if you’re voice-memoing lyric ideas mid-hike. At $119.99, it’s a solid everyday layer that blends warmth with functionality.
ADV Explore Hybrid Jacket
Some days, you don’t want a full-on coat but still need an extra layer. This jacket delivers just that with light padding and jersey side panels for breathability and mobility. Wear it solo in mild weather or layer it under a heavier coat when temps drop. An adjustable hood adds extra warmth without feeling bulky. At $159.99, it’s built for versatility, making it a great option for both city walks and outdoor creative sessions.
ADV Explore Light Down Jacket
If you’re heading somewhere cold, this is the one to grab. The 90/10 down padding traps heat, while the water-repellent ripstop fabric keeps you dry if the weather turns. It’s lightweight and packable, so it won’t take up much space in your bag—perfect for weekend trips or outdoor writing retreats. At $179.99, it’s designed to handle chilly conditions without weighing you down.
ADV Explore Lightweight Jacket
A go-to for those who want a jacket that moves with them, this piece is wind-resistant, stretchy, and insulated with PrimaLoft padding. It offers warmth without feeling bulky, making it great for biking, walking, or even an outdoor jam session. It’s a solid choice for layering when temperatures fluctuate throughout the day.
ADV Explore Power Fleece Hoodie
This hoodie works just as well in the studio as it does on a morning run. A brushed fleece interior gives it a soft and warm feel, while thumbhole cuffs provide extra coverage on chilly days. Zippered pockets offer secure storage for your AirPods or a pocket notebook. Priced at $89.99, it’s a great midlayer that can be worn on its own or under a shell for extra warmth.
ADV Fleece Midlayer
A lightweight fleece that’s built for movement, this one delivers warmth without the bulk. It’s ideal as an outer layer on a cool day or under a heavier jacket when temperatures drop. The streamlined cut makes it easy to layer, and the soft brushed fleece provides all-day comfort. At $79.99, it’s an easy go-to for anyone who wants a functional, everyday piece.
ADV Explore Light Down Vest
For those times when you need warmth but want full arm mobility, this vest is the answer. It’s insulated with premium down fill to keep your core warm while maintaining a lightweight feel.
