Ortovox Swisswool Piz Boè Jacket Women - is a light, water-repellent insulation jacket with Swisswool for ski tours.
The logical further development of the Swisswool story! In the Swisswool Light Tec line, Ortovox has developed technical products that are lightweight and extremely comfortable for demanding ski tours.
The Swisswool Piz Boè jacket, with its 60 g/m² Swisswool filling and sturdy nylon ripstop as Outer skin perfect for all tourers for whom less is more: less weight, less pack size, but more performance. To underline the technical demands of the ski touring jackets for women, we use the elastic Merino Naturetec Light material on the forearms. In other words, exactly where breathability and freedom of movement are required.
The close-fitting, elasticated hood and the elasticated hem and cuffs keep the wind and cold outside on icy peaks. The 2 front pockets and the chest pocket are placed in such a way that they can be optimally used with a rucksack or harness and can also accommodate large objects.
The Piz Boè jackets also have an athletic cut: This means that the light insulating jacket makes every movement when ski touring and also fits perfectly under a 3L hardshell jacket.
Swisswool: Born from the pioneering spirit and shaped by innovative strength, Ortovox presented the first Swisswool products in 2011 - and thus invented the innovative segment of insulation products made of wool! The wool has excellent thermal properties and optimal climate comfort. In addition to its high functionality, Swisswool is characterized by its regional origin and its sustainable wool production and processing.
We use Pertex® Quantum as the outer material for all Swisswool Light and Swisswool Light Tec products. Pertex® Quantum uses a particularly tight weave construction, resulting in an extremely windproof and abrasion-resistant fabric. At the same time, the material remains light and soft.
