Orage Northwind MTN-X Hybrid Insulated Jacket - Men

Freezing on the chairlift, sweating by the third turn? We know the feeling. The Northwind's insulated panels help keep you warm when you're sitting still, while the breathable sides let some of that extra heat escape once you're moving. We like a layer that understands skiing isn't one constant temperature.

Consider Another Option If

You need a waterproof outer jacket or a warmer belay-style layer for extended periods of inactivity in extreme cold.

• Insulating layer under a ski shell
• Resort skiing with changing activity levels
• Ski touring in cooler conditions
• Cold-weather hiking and mountain approaches

• PrimaLoft ThermoPlume insulation: Delivers compressible synthetic warmth with a down-like feel.
• BREATHR Down hybrid design: Combines insulated zones with breathable areas for better temperature management.
• drirelease stretch side panels: Help move moisture away and allow unrestricted movement.
• Recycled nylon ripstop: Resists snags and abrasion during everyday mountain use.
• Compression loop: Makes it easy to carry the layer in a pack.
• Insulated chest pocket: Provides a protected place for small essentials.

Does the Northwind contain natural down?

No. It uses PrimaLoft ThermoPlume made entirely from recycled polyester. Orage describes its warmth as comparable to 550-fill-power down.

Can the Northwind replace a waterproof jacket?

No. Its fabric has a water-repellent finish, but it isn't a waterproof shell. Use it with a waterproof outer layer when conditions require one.
