Reinforced Hood and Shoulders

Durable 20 denier ripstop overlay paneling on the hood and shoulders for added functionality with heavy packs. Panels are treated with a sustainable C0 (100% PFC Free) DWR (Durable Water Repellency) to protect from light rain and to retain warmth.

Built for Layering

Can be worn as a stand-alone jacket or used as a force multiplier for warmth when combined with a protective outer wind or rain shell. Reduced friction between layers allows for increased range of mobility.

Lightweight performance piece

Amazing how something so lightweight can keep you warm. It is designed to move heat/moisture away from your body during high intensity activities and trap heat when less active. If windy, a shell would be needed as it offers no wind resistance but, it doesn’t claim to be wind resistant as that’s not its design purpose.

Great value

As far as Alpha direct jackets go, you’re not going to find a better value for the features. Super breathable, light weight, great insulator, comfy for a variety of temps with a base and wind breaker. Only 4 stars because it’s annoying that they don’t make women’s stuff with the same features as men i.e facing over the shoulders to prevent fabric breakdown from carrying a pack.

Great lightweight layering piece. Well made with the expected Beyond quality, which is the best around. Bought 2 for my wife as well. Would buy again.

Very nice warm jacket

I have never worn a jacket so amazing, it is warm but still breathable and has abrasion resistant shoulders so it won't get scuffed by a backpack.
I was sad to see it was marked down another $20 right after I bought it.
