Climbing has specific performance demands. Hardwired to meet them, the Alpha utilizes a hybrid construction that combines softshell and GORE-TEX PRO, maximizing the benefits of each. Placed at the front and cuffs, durable 80D GORE-TEX PRO shuts out the weather while Burly™ Double Weave softshell zones provide excellent stretch. A RECCO® reflector aids in search and rescue situations, removable knee pads offer protection, and the waist adjuster is designed for ease-of-use and comfort under a harness.
