Winter climbing? Snowshoeing? No matter your plans, the Shadow Insulated Vest is there to give you reliable warmth, from first ascent to last call. Technical enough to take up a mountain, yet stylish enough to hold its own, this alternative-down vest is crafted with the latest in insulating technologies. VerticalX ECO SR™ technology is made to bring you more warmth, loft, and softness with less impact on the planet, thanks to its use of recycled materials and bio-based Sorona®. This feel-good composition is worked into a no-frills design that has what you need to do winter right. If you’re working your way up a flake, this low-profile vest's movement-mirroring stretch will help you reach all holds without getting in your way one bit. Complete with a wind-and-water resistant exterior, drawcord hem and pockets to keep your hands toasty, this genius vest is so great at everything, you may never want to take it off.
Our new VerticalX™ Eco SR has the reliable warmth of VerticalX™ insulation, packed with even more loft, softness that feels like down feathers, and a new blend of sustainable materials. Low-density areas of REPREVE®, a recycled polyester, combine with high-density areas of Sorona®, a renewable plant-based fabric known for its durability. VerticalX™ Eco SR Insulation is just as breathable and stretchy as our best-selling synthetic insulation VerticalX™, we’ve just managed to add even more loft without adding any more weight – or bulk. Just as compressible as ever, this vertically-lapped technology still insulates the wearer even when wet.
