CimAlp, French outdoor specialist brand since 1964, offers everything you need for your hiking adventures — innovative, high-quality products designed to meet your expectations and needs, whatever your activity.

A concentration of technologies for your mountain activities

CimAlp, the French technical sportswear brand, offers a wide collection of clothing. If you're looking to gear up for your next outdoor adventures, you can browse our complete guide to hiking clothing and gear up properly.

In our clothing range, you'll find DWR water-repellent treatments carrying the Bluesign label, practical in cold and snowy conditions, breathable jackets to wick moisture during exertion, and quick-drying properties afterwards. Anti-odour treatments are also a bonus during intense effort or simply in the heat. Attention to elegance and style is also a constant focus at CimAlp. Our 3-layer outfits provide insulation against cold and snow, our fabrics guarantee waterproofing and a finish with waterproof flat seams.

At Cimalp, we've also developed warm clothing for your winter hiking adventures. From merino wool base layers with natural antibacterial properties and warmth, to modern stretch fleece with our Cimaflex technology, through to down jackets in PrimaLoft Black Thermoplume — you'll find all the kit you need for a winter hike.

Explore our technologies to stay dry:

The Ultrashell membrane, comparable to Gore-Tex® by Meindl®, delivers waterproofing at 20,000 mm and breathability at 80,000 g/m²/24h — ideal for the most intense activities demanding total protection: ultra-trail, mountaineering, ski touring, and more. This technology is available across a wide range of hiking jackets and trousers.
The hardshell membrane in 3-layer fabric, a perfect entry-level option for hiking that keeps you dry and protected from the wind
The softshell fabric used on trousers and jackets for versatile, warm, waterproof and breathable products.

A complete range for mountain sports

Softshell jackets, t-shirts, breathable and lightweight base layers, technical trousers with reinforcements, Merino thermal base layer and technical hiking socks… it's all here!

Are you more into mountaineering, speed hiking, mountain biking or ski touring? You'll find lightweight or warm trousers that keep you warm when it's cold and snowing. A shirt that won't crease, dries fast and is very easy to care for — suitable for both travel and hiking in fair weather. You'll also have a wide choice of mountain trousers, ultra-resistant and stretchy for great freedom of movement. Plus waterproof trousers and others specially designed for nordic walking.

How to dress for hiking?

On a hiking trip, dressing right is essential. Several factors need to be considered, such as the weather, the duration of the hike and the terrain. For the upper body, start with a base layer — a hiking t-shirt. It should be comfortable, breathable and close-fitting, using synthetic materials such as polyester or merino wool. Then for hiking in the mountains or in cool weather, a second insulating layer is needed. The mountain fleece and lightweight down jackets are perfect for this. And to protect you from wind and rain, a third protective layer is essential. Opt for a waterproof and breathable jacket. A softshell jacket can be a great option for added warmth and excellent breathability. For the lower body, a stretch and breathable pair of trousers is ideal for hiking. 2-in-1 trousers that convert into shorts are also practical for summer hikes. For your feet, wear anti-blister socks or seamless second-skin socks to prevent rubbing. And for hiking shoes, go for a thick sole with good grip and solid ankle support.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of different fabrics for hiking clothing?

The choice of fabrics for hiking clothing depends on several factors, including the activity practised, weather conditions, the intensity of physical effort, the duration of the activity, and personal preference.

Cotton is soft, comfortable and easy to care for. However, it is not suited to intense physical activities, as it absorbs sweat and moisture, which can lead to feelings of discomfort and cold. Moreover, cotton takes a long time to dry and can cause irritation from rubbing. As for polyester, it is lightweight, resistant and quick-drying. It is also breathable and wicks moisture to keep the body dry. However, some types of polyester can retain odours, and quality varies depending on the weave density. Finally, merino wool is soft, warm and moisture-resistant. It is also antibacterial and anti-odour. However, wool can be heavier than other materials.

How do you care for your hiking clothes to make them last longer?

First, it's important to carefully read the care labels on the garments and follow the recommended instructions to avoid damaging the fabrics or the membrane. Next, turn the garments inside out before washing to protect the fibres. Do not use fabric softener, as it can clog the fabric pores and reduce the breathability of the garment. For washing, it is recommended to use detergents specially designed for sports and hiking clothing. Avoid machine drying if possible, as it can damage the fabrics and reduce their lifespan — it is therefore preferable to air dry them.

Every product you'll find here features a perfect, stylish and modern fit. Renowned for its careful finishing of its products, CimAlp offers the 2-year guarantee of all its products with an exceptional value for money and the opportunity of a secure purchase.

Also find in our wide range all our warm down jackets. Complete your hiking kit with our range of walking poles.
