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.

A flexible layering system is key for fast-moving mountain ascents and fast-changing conditions. The Ascendor Light Pull-On is a low-bulk and adaptable midlayer, keeping you warm when you need it and wicking sweat quickly. Stretchy and slim-fitting, it drops low over the back of your hips and fits comfortably under layers or a harness. Ideal for year-round climbing, alpinism, and mountaineering, or for any activity where free movement is the highest priority, it provides you with that extra layer of warmth in high winds or changing temperatures.

Thermic™ S fabric has alternating stripes of high- and low-lofting fleece, allowing it to insulate and breathe while minimising bulk.
The under-helmet hood fits snugly around your face and offers a boost of warmth when the wind picks up.
Useful storage in two hand pockets and a Matrix™ chest pocket.
Keep warmth in and the chill out with a long back to cover your hips, and elasticated bindings at the cuffs and hem.
Let in airflow when the intensity ramps up with the full-length front zip.
Flatlocked seams throughout for improved comfort.
