Ortovox Pala Light Jacket

The massive, bizarre towers of the Pala group rise from the rocky alpine plateau. Climbing here in the southernmost mountain range of the Dolomites requires strong nerves and robust gear. Our Merino Shield Tec line was specifically designed for long alpine routes like these.

The extremely abrasion-resistant outer material of the Pala Light Jacket for women achieves over 50,000 abrasion cycles in the Martindale test, which measures abrasion resistance. Reinforcements in particularly stressed areas such as the hips, shoulders, and forearms provide maximum protection against rugged rocks. The 4-way stretch material ensures complete freedom of movement, supported by an athletic cut and anatomically shaped elbow areas. Thanks to its membrane-less construction, the Pala Light Jacket for women is particularly breathable, while fine merino wool on the inside and merino mesh inserts in the collar and hem offer additional comfort.

The Pala Light Jacket for women features an elastic waistband and elastic cuffs, moving with every athletic movement thanks to its performance-oriented cut, perfectly tailored for climbing. The chest pocket provides space for a topo, a phone, a trail bar, or other small items that you want to have quickly accessible on a long day in the mountains.

In terms of environmental responsibility, the entire Merino Shield Tec line is completely PFC-free and climate-neutral through CO2 compensation. With its fresh look, the Pala Light Jacket for women is just right for major climbing routes on high rock faces.
