  • Alpine climbing
  • Mountaineering
  • Cold days in camp

Not made for

  • Wind and rain on its own

For that, choose the Hochwilde WT.

Design notes

A pullover has less hardware than a full zip. That saves weight, removes a seam that sits under a pack strap, and leaves less to fail on a long trip.

The fabric is 100% recycled polyester. We use it because it does the job of a mid-layer fleece, and because the recycled version performs the same as the virgin one.

There is no wind layer and no membrane. In wind or precipitation wear a shell over it, or take the Hochwilde WT instead.

Sourcing

Designed in the Italian Alps, in Ayas, Aosta Valley.
