Alpine routes on rock, snow, ice and mixed terrain in the Dolomites or elsewhere in the world are the very essence of technical mountaineering, where maintaining the right thermal balance is key.

This updated version of our iconic Ortles Hybrid TirolWool Responsive Jacket is engineered with a proven hybrid construction. The lightweight insulation layer is made from air-permeable and stretchy fabric with a polyamide/wool composition. Strategically placed insulated areas padded with TirolWool® Responsive support the body’s natural thermoregulation mechanism and retain core warmth. TirolWool® Responsive is made of locally-sourced wool from Tirolean sheep enriched with thermo-reactive Responsive minerals and continues to provide insulation even when wet. When not in use, this jacket stashes away into its integrated pack-it pocket. A tailored, rear-adjustable insulated hood adds extra protection.

As a Salewa Committed style, this jacket has a PFC-free DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish, while the Durastretch fabric has 22% merino wool content, facing to the skin side.

The Ortles Hybrid TirolWool Jacket is our most versatile alpine mountaineering insulation solution for outstanding freedom of movement and thermoregulation.
