Norrona falketind thermo60 Hood Women - North Atlantic/Tourmaline

Norrøna's warmest, most versatile lightweight synthetic insulation jacket.

This lightweight insulation jacket is made for all-year mountaineering but works perfectly for general outdoor activities ranging from trekking to ski touring. Norrøna use the AeroDownproof face fabric to provide windproofness, lightweight and soft touch, and the thermo60 synthetic insulation which offers great warmth-to-weight values, good packability and will provide insulation even when wet.  

The thermo60 insulation used is a 60g/m2 100% recycled polyester insulation which gives great thermal insulation to help the body to maintain its temperature, hence minimizing energy loss. The main face fabric is a windproof 20D recycled nylon ripstop fabric, and the shoulders, arms, and hood are reinforced with a durable and structured 30D lightweight rip-stop nylon Cordura for extra protection and durability. Both have PFC-free DWR treatment for additional water resistance.

Main features include a helmet-compatible hood with one-hand adjustment, a chest pocket with zipper, two hand pockets, and elastic cuffs. The jacket has a technical fit with a Y-cut and articulated arms for good movement while climbing. A longer cut in the back ensures extra protection. It's made to fit over and under the falketind Gore-Tex Jacket and is slightly short in length.

Thermo

“Thermo” is Norrøna's general term for any synthetic insulation. It gives great thermal insulation to help the body to maintain its temperature, minimizing energy loss. Norrøna use synthetic insulation as an alternative to down, as it keeps its functionality even in wet conditions.

While moisture is the weak point of down, synthetic insulation shows its strength during sweat-inducing activities, when being exposed to rain or under continuous humid conditions. Synthetic insulation provides a very good warmth-to-weightratio and is easy to maintain.

The number behind Thermo refers to the weight in gr/sqm of the insulation used in the product. The suppliers of the synthetic insulation are Primaloft and Pinneco.

The breathability of insulated products are generally quite low.
