Ortovox Seceda Softshell Jacket - Men

The approach starts cool, the sun comes out halfway up, and suddenly you're working harder than expected. That's where we like the Seceda. It moves with you, takes the edge off the wind and has merino wool on the inside for comfort when the pace picks up. One less reason to stop and change layers.

Consider Another Option If

You need fully waterproof protection for prolonged rain or wet snow, or a lightweight shell that packs down to almost nothing.

• Mountaineering and alpine scrambling
• Hiking and long approaches in variable conditions
• Ski touring in predominantly dry weather
• Active mountain days where mobility matters

• Four-way-stretch construction: Lets you move naturally through technical terrain without feeling restricted.
• Merino wool on the inside: Helps manage moisture and keeps the fabric comfortable against the skin.
• Backpack-friendly pockets: Keep essentials accessible while wearing a pack.
• Adjustable hood, cuffs and hem: Allow you to fine-tune coverage as conditions change.

Is the Seceda Softshell Jacket waterproof?

No. Its fabric resists wind and light moisture, but it isn't a substitute for a waterproof hardshell during sustained rain or wet snow.

Can I use the Seceda for ski touring?

Yes. Its stretch construction and moisture-management properties make it useful for active ski touring in predominantly dry conditions. Carry a waterproof outer layer when the forecast calls for prolonged precipitation.
