Description

<p>One part - two styles: the Swisswool Piz Cartas vest from Ortovox is just as versatile with its practical reversible function as its namesake. The Piz Grisch in the canton of Graubünden in Switzerland can be climbed in many different ways. Whether on the north-west ridge, the north-east degree or one of the other routes - you can reach the summit safely and contentedly from any side. And also the sporty insulation jacket convinces on both sides with a lot of function and good equipment.</p><p>The high-quality Pertex® Quantum material reliably protects the elements both inside and out. Its dense woven construction is extremely windproof, extremely abrasion-resistant and even water-repellent. At the same time, the material remains particularly light and the Swiss virgin wool filling does not change anything. The wild structure of the so-called Swisswool® encloses a lot of air and convinces with an ideal weight/insulation ratio. In addition, the natural fibres warm even when wet, as they absorb and release water vapour particularly well. This keeps the upper body warm and pleasantly dry, even on demanding ski tours.</p><p>With its mesh-lined pockets on one side and a rucksack-compatible breast pocket on the other, the Swisswool Piz Grisch vest also covers the storage space perfectly. In addition, a high collar and elastic hem provide additional protection against the cold.&nbsp;</p>
