Salewa

Salewa's most versatile alpine mountaineering insulation jacket – for outstanding freedom of movement and thermoregulation.

Alpine routes on rock, snow, ice and mixed terrain in the Dolomites or elsewhere in the world are the very essence of technical mountaineering. Working hard means the body produces heat, while exposure to the weather brings the risk of overcooling.

This updated version of the iconic Ortles Hybrid TirolWool Responsive Jacket is engineered with a proven hybrid construction. The lightweight insulation layer is made from air-permeable and stretchy Durastretch softshell fabric with a polyamide/wool composition. Strategically placed insulated areas padded with TirolWool® Responsive support the body’s natural thermoregulation mechanism and retain core warmth. TirolWool® Responsive is made of locally-sourced wool from Tirolean sheep. This wool is enriched with innovative Responsive minerals and continues to provide insulation even when wet. The tailored, rear-adjustable insulated hood adds extra protection. When not in use, this jacket stashes away into its integrated pack-it pocket.

As a Salewa Committed style, this jacket has a PFC-free DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish, while the Durastretch fabric has 22% merino wool content, facing to the skin side.
