Fit descriptions

All garments are designed and fitted to suit their intended end use. See below for a general description of our fit categories:

Slim

A streamlined silhouette. Cut trim following the contours of the body. Expertly placed articulation of seams and the use of stretch fabric ensure maximum freedom of movement in these close-fitting items.

Regular

Neither slim nor loose. Regular fit items are the perfect balance of form fit and ease of movement.

Relaxed

Our more generous fit. Cut loosely through the body allowing for ease of movement and additional layering.

Expedition

Designed specifically to accommodate the layering system and equipment required for high altitude and polar expeditions.

Tech and features.

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.
