Insulation & Breathability

The jacket is insulated with PrimaLoft® Gold Active+, designed to balance warmth and breathability during fluctuating activity levels. It traps heat when you slow down while allowing excess warmth and moisture to escape as intensity increases.

Wind-resistant Pertex® Quantum Air outer fabric protects against windchill while remaining highly air-permeable, helping regulate your temperature on steep climbs and exposed terrain.

Low-bulk Thermic™ stretch fleece side panels increase mobility and breathability, ensuring a close, flexible fit that layers easily under a shell.
