Outdoor Research Helium Down Jacket - Men's
Sold out




Sustainable ultralight alpine performance and warmth.
The Helium Down Jacket is the ultimate alpine insulator-ultralight, durable, and perfect for layering underneath a shell during cold-weather alpine activities or worn on its own. The Helium Down Jacket is made from a durable Pertex® Quantum Diamond Fuse 100% recycled nylon shell. Pertex® Shield reinforced shoulders and upper sleeves provide a waterproof barrier against moisture, ensuring warmth and comfort when the skies are unpredictable, and responsibly sourced 800+ fill power goose-down insulation provides unmatched, packable warmth. Brushed tricot-lined hand pockets, an external chest pocket, and dual internal stash pockets provide tons of storage, and the left-hand pocket even doubles as a stuff sack, making this jacket as packable as it is protective. And the elastic drawcord hem and Low-Pro Binding™ deliver a clean silhouette. Designed as the perfect alpine insulating piece and leaning on responsibly sourced material composition, the Helium Down Jacket is a must-have in every alpinist kit.
