A technical insulating layer for climbing skiing and hiking. Made with PrimaLoft insulation.

In theory layering up sounds like a good way to extend the use of your climbing or skiing shell but the real trick is finding a mid-layer insulator with enough stuff to keep you warm without hindering your mobility. The North Face Redpoint Optimus Jacket is a confident step in a practical outerwear design progression. It's made with a lightweight PrimaLoft® synthetic insulation that insulates effectively without bunching up. When paired with a lightweight shell from The North Face the Redpoint Optimus Jacket fits well and easily adapts to most climbing and outerwear shells made by other manufacturers. Unlike fleece jackets that sometimes begin to fray after prolonged use on the trail the Redpoint Optimus Jacket has a durable and lightweight Keeler nylon ripstop face that holds up under the abrasion of a loaded pack. The great warmth-to-weight design also makes the Redpoint Optimus a great stowable piece for sailing backpacking and just about any cool outdoor activity that doesn't involve a ton of rain.
