Description
<p>On demanding tours in high alpine terrain, an insulation jacket quickly becomes too much - the Swisswool Piz Duan Vest is the perfect alternative here. It keeps the upper body pleasantly warm, yet allows enough air under the arms and, as a real lightweight, should not be missing from the Swiss insulation range from Ortovox.</p><p>Its proven SWISSWOOL filling has even been upgraded: Thanks to an elaborate processing technique and the adapted material composition, the insulation made from fairly produced Swiss sheep's wool is not only wonderfully warm but also elastic. Together with the stretchy edging around the waistcoat, this ensures a great fit with plenty of freedom of movement - perfect for going all out on demanding high-altitude tours in summer or on winter ski tours.</p><p>The functional inner lining offers great moisture management when you start to sweat, while the DWR impregnation keeps wind and moisture out. The Swisswool Piz Duan waistcoat can be stowed in its own chest pocket to save space and easily attached to your climbing harness or backpack with loops - it's always there when your upper body needs an extra dose of warmth.</p>
