Men's Vesper Insulated Jacket

About this find

The Vesper Insulated Jacket from Outdoor Research is built for mountain days, from early alpine starts to long backcountry trips and shoulder-season hikes. It is made from lightweight, recycled bluesign® approved fabrics and uses VerticalX™ ECO SR™ insulation, which is designed to balance warmth, stretch, and breathability while you move. The wind- and water-resistant shell helps protect you when the weather turns, and it stays comfortable during high-output activities.

The jacket has a hood and an adjustable drawcord hem, so you can snug things up when the wind picks up. Elastic cuffs help the fit feel secure at your wrists. Zippered hand and chest pockets give you a safe place for small essentials, keeping them close while you hike. The left-hand pocket doubles as a stuff sack, so you can roll the jacket down small and tuck it into your pack when the day warms up.

This jacket layers well. It is an easy choice for alpine starts, long backcountry days, and shoulder-season hikes, when conditions change and you want a light layer you can carry with ease.
