What is the Norrona Men's Trollveggen Gore-Tex Pro Light Jacket?
The Norrona Trollveggen Gore-Tex Pro Light Jacket is a lightweight yet durable shell jacket for alpine climbing and mountaineering. It offers high-performance protection against harsh weather conditions while remaining breathable and easy to pack, making it ideal for everything from icy ascents to ski touring.
What is it made of?
The Norrona Trollveggen Gore-Tex Pro Light Jacket is engineered using GORE-TEX PRO technology, combining the ePE (expanded polyethylene) membrane with high-performance face fabrics. This construction delivers outstanding protection tailored for alpine use—offering durable waterproofness, total wind protection and great breathability.
The ePE Membrane
At the heart of the GORE-TEX PRO is the ePE membrane. It is ultra-lightweight and thin yet impressively strong and engineered for long-lasting performance. Importantly, it is PFAS-free (under 50ppm), reducing the product's environmental footprint while maintaining the high protection standard expected from GORE-TEX.
Face Fabrics and Reinforcements
To form the complete GORE-TEX PRO, the ePE membrane is bonded to carefully chosen face and backer textiles, including recycled materials. The jacket uses a reinforced three-layer GORE-TEX PRO with a durable 70Dx160D face fabric made from 100% recycled nylon in high-stress areas like the hood, shoulders, and elbows. These reinforcements enhance abrasion resistance and longevity, making the jacket dependable season after season in challenging alpine conditions.
What are its features?
Every detail of the Norrona Trollveggen Gore-Tex Pro Light Jacket is designed with demanding alpine missions in mind. These features keep you focused and protected in the harshest environments, from ventilation and mobility to weather protection and pack compatibility.
Storm Hood with One-Hand Adjustment
The Trollveggen Gore-Tex Pro Light Jacket features a stormproof hood. It's helmet-compatible, ideal for climbing, skiing or mountaineering, and can be easily adjusted with one hand—even while wearing gloves.
Two-Way Ventilation for Temperature Control
When your activity level ramps up, the jacket's two-way underarm zips and two-way front zipper give you control over ventilation. The long pit zips let you release excess heat without removing your pack, while the two-way front zip allows quick airflow adjustments during steep climbs or intense efforts—keeping you comfortable and focused on the move.
Asymmetric Velcro Cuffs
The cuffs are designed with an asymmetric cut and Velcro adjustments, allowing you to fine-tune the fit over gloves and seal out cold air or snow. This design detail helps keep your hands warm and dry while preserving dexterity on technical terrain.
High Napoleon Chest Pockets
The jacket includes two spacious Napoleon-style chest pockets strategically placed high on the torso. This design makes them easily accessible even when wearing a harness or carrying a backpack, ensuring you can grab essentials without having to stop and adjust your gear.
Technical Fit with Articulated Arms
Engineered with a technical Y-cut and articulated sleeves, the Trollveggen offers unrestricted mobility for climbing, scrambling, and mountaineering. The tailored fit moves with your body, reducing bulk and bunching while maintaining great freedom of movement.
Extended Back Hem for Added Protection
The longer back cut adds extra coverage where you need it most—especially when bending over, reaching up, or sitting on cold surfaces. It also helps seal drafts and snow, improving the jacket's overall weatherproof performance.
