This half-zip jacket is made for freeriding but also works for mountaineering, trekking, and general outdoor. It’s made with different Polartec® fabrics to provide optimal thermal performance and comfort.
They use the Polartec® Power Grid™ in the back, stomach area, underarm, and hood because it offers excellent quick-drying and moisture-wicking properties. This patented grid design structure is a way to reduce fabric weight while increasing warmth and compressibility. Open-air channels surrounding each segment of the grid allow easy release of all excess body heat as it builds during activity.
The shoulders, neck, and top sleeve are made in Polartec® Thermal Pro® because of its superb warmth-to-weight ratio. This unique knit technique creates air pockets that trap air and retain body heat, providing outstanding warmth to weight. Not only are they very comfortable, but these fabrics offer excellent breathability, dry quickly, and are very pill-resistant.
