Ortovox Women's Swisswool Piz Palu Jacket

Ideal for ski touring or winter hiking the versatile Ortovox Women's Swisswool Piz Palu Jacket offers close-fitting softshell comfort and windproof performance and can also serve double-duty as a super warm midlayer.

The jacket employs hybrid construction. The exterior softshell fabric delivers comfort breathability and next-to-skin comfort and Merino NatureTec Light fabric on the shoulders and across the back bumps up abrasion-resistance. This design makes the jacket ideal for anyone wearing a pack in cold weather. Swisswool on the front and across the arms offers lightweight insulation and is protected by windproof Pertex Quantum fabric. An adjustable hood extends protective coverage and is sized to accommodate a helmet if necessary.

Other features include an adjustable hem and two zippered front pockets that are set high to allow access even if you're wearing a backpack or a climbing harness. Breathable backing in the hand pockets enables them to serve as vents to dump excess heat.

Available in your choice of size and color options the Ortovox Women's Swisswool Piz Palu Jacket has an athletic fit that is best worn over baselayers and low-profile midlayers. It also allows you to wear a protective hardshell over top of it
