Description

<p>With the Pala Light waistcoat from Ortovox, you can venture on alpine routes or bravely climb high rock faces - because this high-quality softshell waistcoat makes no compromises when it comes to robustness, functionality and comfort.</p><p><br></p><p>Its technical material mix is a natural lightweight that can hardly be brought to its knees. It withstands more than 50,000 abrasion cycles in the Martindale test and has no problem with sharp rock edges or friction. The waistcoat does not need a membrane, but a PFC-free impregnation keeps out moisture and wind. Therefore, the robust outer shell is exceptionally breathable and thoroughly permeated with four-way stretch so that the necessary freedom of movement is guaranteed in every situation. On the inside, soft merino wool ensures a pleasant body climate, while merino mesh on the collar and waistband give you an even better feeling in tight-fitting areas.</p><p>Whether it's a backpack, climbing harness or solid rock, the Pala Light waistcoat takes it in its stride. Additional material reinforcements ensure this on the shoulders and the hip area. With its two-way front zip, you can easily access your equipment at any time, while the sensibly placed chest pocket is always within reach. Thanks to its athletic fit and adjustable hem, the softshell waistcoat fits close to the body without hindering your climbing.</p>
