Is it warm?

Very warm and more insulating than a standard fleece: the hollow fibres in our CIMATHERM® technology retain heat in a 320 g/m² long-pile fabric. For the mountain hut.

Does it protect against wind and rain?

It withstands sustained winds of 40 to 60 km/h. Rain, no: it is not waterproof.

What makes it different?

Soft, long-pile sherpa fleece and a close-fitting high collar: a fleece for the mountain refuge that looks at home in town too.

Which size should I choose?

It runs slightly small: if you’re between sizes or prefer a looser fit, size up.

Lifestyle

The fleece that locks in warmth

You stop moving. Your body cools down. Within minutes, the cold sets in and won’t let go. On a bivvy, at a mountain hut or during a long wait, a standard mid-layer isn’t enough.

This fleece is designed to prevent that heat loss. Its long pile traps a dense volume of air, retaining body heat even when you stop moving. It wraps around you without feeling restrictive, while the close-fitting high collar protects your neck. The fabric withstands repeated abrasion and retains its performance over time.

Because in the cold, reliable warmth isn’t a luxury. It’s essential.

In summary This content is written by AI

Customers are won over by its immediate warmth, softness and comfort: many find it very warm, pleasant to wear and perfect for winter. Several also appreciate its moderate weight and lightness, without compromising on the quality of the finish. It is used in bivouacs and mountain huts, on walks, in everyday life, or before and after training, mainly when standing still or during light activity. One customer has even bought a second one. Please note that it can run small or close to the body; choose a size up if you prefer a looser fit.

The best purchase I've ever made, without a doubt! Super warm! Just by putting a first layer underneath, you'll still feel warm even when it's -4 degrees Celsius. I recommend it to everyone.

It's very warm and incredibly comfortable to wear (ah! the long fleece on top of the warmth, what a feel!), and the two colors match perfectly. Just a slight lack of roominess under the arms, which is noticeable when wearing a sweater underneath! I've had an Arc'teryx fleece and a Mountain Hardwear fleece, and in the same conditions, I didn't have this issue. I'm very happy to have a French-made fleece!

Used as a 3rd layer in dry cold weather, this fleece jacket is very comfortable, it keeps you very warm and allows water vapor to escape, after a good walk dry inside and damp outside.

Very warm jacket. Ideal for bivouacking or staying in a mountain hut, whether stationary or light active. I prefer a thinner, more technical layer for active pursuits. I had an elderly person who gets cold very easily try this one on, and...she kept it! I use it after intense training sessions at the stadium, during competitions, or on winter outings, before showering and after removing my technical clothing. So, it has a variety of uses, but I use it primarily for its immediate warmth.
