FOR ALPINISTS
Particularly robust, technical softshell jacket for high-alpine tours
Highlights
Water- and wind-repellent, as well as highly breathable
Particularly robust thanks to MERINO NATURETEC RIPS inserts at points subject to heavy wear
Fine merino wool on the inside
With mighty glacier crevasses, terrain combining rock and ice, and imposing summits, mountaineering calls for clothing that is adaptable and 100% reliable. This is exactly where the WESTALPEN SOFTSHELL line comes into its own: the combination of abrasion-resistant MERINO NATURETEC RIPS inserts and the NATURETEC LIGHT material, as well as fine merino wool on the inside, makes the line robust, breathable and comfortable.
The design and features of the WESTALPEN SOFTSHELL alpine touring jacket for men are aimed at those who value protection and adaptability from the valley to the summit. The high-quality schoeller® fabric ensures that the jacket is highly breathable even during strenuous ascents and impresses with its high abrasion resistance. The mesh lining inner pockets provide additional ventilation. The merino wool on the inside ensures a soft feel and good climate comfort. The Tasmanian merino wool meets the strict criteria of the ORTOVOX WOOL PROMISE, which ensures fair treatment of animals, farmers and the environment. In addition, the jacket is PFC-free and manufactured in Europe, avoiding long transport routes.
The WESTALPEN SOFTSHELL alpine touring jacket for men also impresses with its other features. The hood is adjustable and has elasticated inserts, the hem and cuffs are adjustable and the merino mesh inserts in the chin area provide even more comfort.
