What is the Taiss Light ML?
It's a lightweight fleece designed with stretchy, breathable material to offer comfort and improved freedom of movement in the hills. The Taiss Light makes the ideal midlayer for various adventures, whether climbing, scrambling or hiking to reach your peak.
What is it made of?
The Taiss Light comprises a technical nylon-based fleece with a four-way stretch that is lightweight and feels soft against the skin.
Nylon is incredibly robust, increasing the longevity of the jacket. It can withstand regular use in the mountains without looking worn and shabby once you return home from your trip.
The four-way stretch enhances flexibility and freedom of movement for steep technical ascents to help keep you comfortable and performing your best, no matter your activity.
This material is effective at wicking away moisture from the skin, helping to regulate temperature when working hard and stopping you from feeling clammy and sweaty inside your layering system.
To top it all off, the material is bluesign® approved, and this fleece has been created in conjunction with FairWear standards.
bluesign® approval ensures that the materials have been safely produced and production methods have considered and met certain ethical and sustainable standards concerning the environment, the consumer and workers involved in the process.
Mammut works with FairWear to ensure safe, ethical working conditions in their factories, helping to protect workers' rights and being considerate and sustainable with their processes.
What are its features?
This fleece has a tight-fitting hood that can comfortably layer underneath a climbing helmet in colder climates. The hood has an elastic trim to enhance the fit and cinch in the fabric around the face for maximum heat retention. A ponytail hole in the hood is also perfect when you have your hair tied back - it keeps your ponytail from pressing into the crown of your head and causing headaches.
Zippered pockets offer a secure place to store snacks, energy gels, a GPS device or balm. These pockets are climbing harness compatible for easy access when roped up.
Gussets have been added under the arms for added stretch and improved mobility, perfect for tackling steep ascents, using walking poles or climbing. Each cuff has a built-in thumb loop that closes neatly at the opening, helping them look more subtle when they're not being used.
Finally, the seams are flattened to help prevent rubbing and chafing against the skin when worn for extended periods.
