La Sportiva Freeway Wind Jacket - Women

We like the Freeway because its small details make sense when you're climbing. You can still hear clearly with the hood up, reach overhead without feeling restricted and clip the packed jacket to your harness when the sun comes out. Simple details that make a difference on the rock.

Consider Another Option If

You need fully waterproof protection for prolonged rain or insulation for cold, stationary periods.

• Multi-pitch rock climbing
• Alpine climbing and approaches
• Hiking and scrambling in windy conditions
• Carrying a compact wind layer

• Laser-cut hood perforations: Preserve hearing when wearing the hood.
• Underarm ventilation: Helps release heat during active climbing.
• Abrasion-resistant construction: Suits contact with rock and rough terrain.
• Self-stowing chest pocket: Packs compactly with a loop for attaching it to a harness.
• Climbing-focused fit: Allows comfortable overhead movement.

Is the Freeway waterproof?

No. It's water-resistant and treated with a PFC-free DWR finish, but it isn't a waterproof rain jacket.

Can I wear the hood with a climbing helmet?

Yes. The low-profile hood is designed to work with climbing helmets.
