This is the alpine incarnation of our classic versatile softshell, with a slick, streamlined design and the features you need for vertical missions. It’s specifically developed to be worn with a harness or pack, with a chest pocket that’s accessible on the climb and an under-helmet hood. Built with breathable, wind-resistant fabric, the Borealis Alpine Hoody works to expel moisture and regulate your temperature as you quest upwards on windswept faces.
