Mountain EquipmentSwitch Pro Hooded Jacket - Hybrid Jackets - Men's

Designed for sustained activities in cold weather, the Switch Pro Hooded Jacket is a men's hybrid mid-layer crafted to adapt to changing paces in the mountains. It helps wick away sweat during intense climbs while retaining warmth during more static phases, reducing the need to change layers throughout the outing.

Its functionality relies on the Octayarn lining, a hollow, branched fiber whose 3D structure increases the contact surface while maintaining a low weight and volume. This construction enhances both thermal insulation and moisture wicking. In the arm areas, the lining is reversed to facilitate sliding over other layers, while Pontetorto® Tecnostretch Fleece inserts are placed under the arms, on the sides, and in the hood to provide greater stretch, ventilation, and freedom of movement.

Intended for mountaineering, alpine climbing, and ski touring, the Switch Pro Hooded can be worn alone or integrated into a layering system depending on conditions. Its lightweight and stretchable outer fabric is windproof and offers protection against light rain and cold wind, making it a particularly suitable option for Fast & Light outings and multi-day treks when the weather remains cold and changeable.
