We all know that when it comes to cold, intense days in the mountains, it’s all about managing your body temperature. Which is where Polartec® Alpha™ active insulation comes in. The adaptive knit technology is made for changing conditions. Tough, yet lightweight, the lofted fibers, mesh core and hydrophobic qualities ensure consistent warmth for optimized comfort during stop-start activities. And because its lightweight construction prevents overheating and eliminates the need for constant layer adjustments, Polartec® Alpha™ is the perfect choice for high-output activities like ski touring.  

The Tigard Alpha® Direct Jacket and Anorak are lightweight and packable, making them ideal for layering or stowing away when not in use. Whether you're on a multi-day ski tour or just heading out for a quick backcountry adventure, these pieces offer a versatile, stylish, and eco-conscious solution for active insulation. They also provide practical storage – well-placed chest and front zip pockets on the Jacket, and a front kangaroo pocket for the Anorak. Meaning you have quick access to what you need without having to stop and dig through your pack. But what really sets these garments apart is the combination of soft, next-to-skin Polartec® Alpha™ insulation with woven fleece side inserts to ensure optimum freedom of movement. The stretch bindings at the cuffs, hem, and hood help keep the jacket securely in place, so you don’t have to worry about any slipping or bunching, even when you’re in full motion. 

With its combination of Polartec® Alpha™ insulation, durable materials, and thoughtful design features, the Dynafit Tigard Alpha® Direct Jacket and Anorak are the perfect companions for your next cold-weather expedition.
