Alpine Use

When conditions are mixed and activity levels fluctuate, this lightweight synthetic insulated jacket delivers the ultimate balance of warmth and breathability to keep you comfortable whatever your day throws at you. Filled with dual weight PrimaLoft® Gold Active+ insulation which is lighter in hot spots to help regulate your temperature, it’s a versatile jacket which can be used as a technical outer on fast summer hikes or a warm, hardworking midlayer in cooler conditions. Now featuring a new, even more breathable lining, the Xenair Alpine Light expertly deals with changes in energy and temperature without you needing to remove layers.

The jacket is equipped for moving upwards, with sleeve articulation refined for climbs and scrambles, and a close-fitting hood which fits seamlessly under your helmet. Three zipped pockets provide stash space for your map or snacks, with one inner chest pocket doubling up as a stuff sack with a harness attachment loop. The elasticated cuffs pair easily with gloves, while the single-sided rear hem adjustment eliminates draughts on chillier missions.

Featuring an innovative lining designed to keep you comfortable for longer, the Xenair Alpine Light Jacket offers body-mapped insulation for your most action-packed pursuits.

Women’s upper body sizing.

How to measure.

Chest: Measure the full circumference of your chest just below your armpits.

Waist: Find the top of your hip and measure the full circumference around your body.

Arm length: Measure horizontally from the centre of your back, across the shoulder, over a naturally bent elbow and down to the wrist fold.

Hips: Measure around the widest part of your hip area.

While all our garments are sized to these measurements, you will find that the cut on jackets designed for use in more extreme environments will be slightly more generous in the expectation that these designs will be used with additional/thicker midlayers. If you plan on using a jacket like this with fewer layers beneath it, please keep this in mind when selecting your size.

Fits

All garments are designed and fitted to suit their intended end use.  See below for a general description of our fit categories:

Regular: Neither slim nor loose. Regular fit items are the perfect balance of form fit and ease of movement.

Slim: A streamlined silhouette. Cut trim following the contours of the body. Expertly placed articulation of seams and the use of stretch fabric ensure maximum freedom of movement in these close-fitting items.

Relaxed: Our more generous fit. Cut loosely through the body allowing for ease of movement and additional layering.

Expedition: Designed specifically to accommodate the layering system and equipment required for high altitude and polar expeditions.
