This lightweight synthetic insulated vest expertly adapts to changes in intensity, pace and temperature and offers the warmth and breathability of our iconic Xenair range, without the bulk of the sleeves. Ideal as a mid-layer or as a versatile outer layer, it's compact and designed to respond to your performance, whether you're climbing an icy waterfall or going from skin to ski. It features an enhanced, highly breathable lining that moves sweat through the system faster than ever before. Combined with a body-hugging dual-weight insulation designed to keep you warm only where you need it, it keeps you comfortable for longer and eliminates the need to change layers in mixed conditions.

Wind-resistant Pertex® Quantum Air fabric keeps the cold at bay on exposed climbs, while the slight single-sided fit at the back hem lets you insulate yourself from icy winds. The comfortable semi-elastic armholes prevent underarm pain, even when you're wielding ice axes and struggling with gear. Store gloves, snacks or other essentials in the zippered chest pocket or two zippered hand pockets, one of which doubles as an integrated storage bag with a snap loop to attach it to the harness.

From fast hikes to ski touring, the Xenair Vest is a versatile and adaptable layer that will keep you moving on big mountain days.
