Ortovox Pala

The massive, bizarre towers of the Pala group rise from the rocky high plateau. Those climbing in the southernmost mountain range of the Dolomites need strong nerves and robust gear. The extremely abrasion-resistant outer material of the Pala achieves more than 50,000 abrasion cycles in the Martindale test, which measures abrasion resistance. Reinforcements at 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, further enhanced by an athletic cut and anatomically shaped elbow areas. Thanks to its membrane-less construction, the Pala Jacket is particularly breathable, while the fine merino wool on the inside offers additional comfort. The self-regulating hood fits under a climbing helmet, and the sleeve cuffs and waistband are elastic and comfortable. The women's Pala Jacket adapts to every movement thanks to its high-performance fit and is perfectly tailored for climbing. The chest pocket and two front pockets optimized for climbing harnesses and backpacks provide space for small items that need to be quickly accessible during a long climbing day.
