Insulation & Construction

Filled with 700 fill power recycled down, treated with a Nikwax hydrophobic finish, this jacket retains warmth even in damp conditions and dries more quickly than untreated down.

The Pertex® Quantum outer fabric is soft to the touch, windproof, and breathable — protecting insulation performance without adding unnecessary weight.

A zoned baffle construction maximises efficiency:

• Micro baffles around the body and shoulders for core warmth

• Nano baffles under the arms to improve breathability and reduce bulk

The result is balanced insulation that performs whether you’re moving fast or belaying in cold air.

Key Features

• Windproof, breathable Pertex® Quantum outer

• 700FP recycled down with hydrophobic treatment

• Zoned baffle construction for optimised warmth and breathability

• Down-filled hood for added protection in cold conditions

• Internally elasticated cuffs to seal in heat

• Drawcord-adjustable hem for a secure fit

Durable, versatile, and a proven favourite among climbers and mountain-goers worldwide, the Women’s Microlight Alpine Down Jacket is a dependable layer you’ll rely on from valley floor to summit ridge.
