What is the Sirocco Hoodie?
It's a lightweight, thermal-regulating, low-bulk synthetically insulated jacket ideal for multi-activity use across the seasons. Engineered to balance warmth, breathability, and freedom of movement, it utilises a combination of PrimaLoft® Gold Active and stretchy fleece side panels to enhance your adventure, whether worn alone or as a cosy midlayer.
What is it made from?
Insulation: The Sirocco Hoodie uses 60 g/m² of PrimaLoft® Gold Active Vent Insulation for breathable warmth, with highly effective moisture management to keep you comfortable when the trail gets tough.
Primaloft® Gold Active is a synthetic insulation that provides ample warmth, even when wet. The ability to retain heat when wet is a huge advantage of synthetic insulation compared to down, alongside being a vegan alternative. This insulation is also incredibly breathable and helps to regulate body temperature and balance the body's microclimate when working hard. It's made from 80% recycled polyester, which, though recycled, maintains performance and feel. This insulation does not migrate and has a four-way stretch to enhance flexibility and freedom of movement - perfect for climbing, ski touring, or even using hiking poles.
Fabrics: The outer of the jacket is constructed from Montane's 20D Featherlite Air material, which is entirely made from recycled nylon. Featherlite Air is a lightweight and durable woven ripstop material engineered to provide high wind resistance with exceptional breathability. It's soft and comfortable to wear, allowing it to move with you, instead of holding you back.
The material is finished with a PFAS-free DWR (durable water repellent) coating to provide light water resistance for added protection in changeable weather conditions. However, please note that this does not make the jacket waterproof - we always recommend carrying a waterproof shell for wet conditions.
Montane has used Thermo Grid brushed back stretch fleece for the side panels and under the arms to further enhance breathability and freedom of movement while keeping weight and bulk to a minimum. The Thermo Grid feels luxuriously soft and smooth against the skin, with a fantastic stretch aiding a close fit for maximum thermal retention. The fleece panels also actively draw moisture and excess heat away from the body and out into the air, for advanced breathability.
What are its features?
As mentioned above, the Sirocco Hoodie features a zoned, insulated construction, with PrimaLoft Gold Active Vent Insulation across the body and Thermo Grid brushed-back stretch fleece panels down the sides and on the underside of the arms. This body-mapped construction is engineered to balance warmth, protection, freedom of movement and moisture management, making the jacket suitable for wear as both a midlayer or standalone piece for a wide range of activities in changeable conditions.
Low-profile seams throughout provide added durability whilst improving comfort levels when layering. A snug elasticated hood that can comfortably sit underneath a climbing harness provides maximum thermal protection when climbing cold or exposed routes. The jacket is fastened with a lightweight YKK VISLON® Natulon recycled front zip for minimal weight and bulk.
For storage, you'll find two zippered hand pockets ideal for storing various essentials such as trail snacks, energy gels, gloves, a beanie or a mobile phone.
The jacket features Montane's trim fit, which sits closer to the body for minimum bulk when moving fast. It provides just enough room to pop on light layers underneath for colder days, whilst added articulation through the sleeves prioritises freedom of movement, to elevate your adventure instead of holding you back.
