When the weather is changeable and activity intensity fluctuates, this lightweight synthetic insulated jacket provides the ultimate balance of warmth and breathability, keeping you comfortable no matter what the day brings. Filled with dual-weight PrimaLoft® Gold Active+ insulation, it uses lighter fill in high-heat areas to help regulate body temperature; it is a versatile jacket that can serve as a technical outer layer during fast summer hikes, or as a warm and durable mid-layer in cooler conditions. Now featuring a new, more breathable lining, the Xenair Alpine Light can properly handle changes in energy and body temperature without having to remove a layer.
This jacket is designed for moving upward, with improved articulated sleeve construction suitable for climbing and scrambling, and a close-fitting hood that fits seamlessly under a helmet. Three zippered pockets can hold maps or snacks, including an internal chest pocket that can also serve as a storage pocket, with a harness loop. Elastic cuffs pair easily with gloves, while the single-sided rear hem adjustment eliminates wind drafts during cold-weather excursions.
With an innovative lining design that keeps you comfortable for longer, the Xenair Alpine Light jacket provides zoned body insulation for your most demanding activities.
