Womens Ridgelite Futurefleece Wind Jacket

Built for high-output hiking missions, the Women’s Ridgelite FUTUREFLEECE Wind Jacket delivers powerful protection, exceptional comfort and effortless packability in one streamlined design. Its windproof WindWall exterior blocks penetrating gusts to reduce the effects of wind chill, while a durable water-repellent finish provides reliable resistance against light moisture. Inside, the ultra-light FUTUREFLEECE lining optimises thermo-regulation, warmth-to-weight efficiency and packability, offering a soft, breathable layer that feels comfortable.

The attached, adjustable three-piece hood features a rear cinch-cord and cord lock for a secure fit when wind picks up. It also stows neatly into the collar and can be fastened in place using the hood’s cinch-cord and rivet, keeping the profile clean when you don’t need the extra coverage. A full-length centre front zip allows quick ventilation and easy layering, while underarm gussets enhance mobility during steep climbs and fast-paced scrambles. Secure-zip hand pockets with reverse-coil zips keep essentials protected, and an internal hem cinch-cord offers custom adjustability. Encased-elastic cuffs help seal out draughts without restricting movement.

Designed with practical packability in mind, the Ridgelite can be compressed and stored within its own pocket, saving valuable space in your pack. Reflective detailing on the lower back enhances visibility in low-light conditions, and heat-transfer logos on the chest and shoulder lend a clean, technical finish. Made with recycled materials to help reduce landfill waste, this jacket pairs sustainable design with advanced fabric innovation, giving you dependable wind protection, dynamic movement and lightweight warmth for demanding days on the trail.
