Why We Love the Westalpen Swisswool Jacket:

When it comes to alpine-ready midlayers, there's no better option than the Ortovox Westalpen Swisswool Jacket. With its thin synthetic wool blend, this jacket not only layers well but also offers exceptional performance. It effectively wicks away sweat while we walk, provides excellent insulation while we ski, and also stays fresh by resisting odors, allowing us to confidently venture out again tomorrow.
