Alpinus Kiruna Jacket - Brown
A down jacket in brown, designed for wear during the transitional season - in autumn, spring, and during a mild winter. It combines a natural duck down filling, a construction that limits the effect of wind, and practical solutions useful both in the field and for everyday use.
The lightweight, quilted construction increases wearing comfort, while the three-dimensional structure of the down traps warmed air inside the chambers, helping maintain proper thermal comfort. The Kiruna model protects against the cold and effectively reduces wind penetration.
Rip-stop nylon with DWR coating, smooth lining
The outer layer is made of 100% Rip-Stop nylon. The characteristic grid weave reinforces the material and reduces the risk of any damage spreading further. The fabric limits cold wind penetration, helping support the thermal insulation properties of the natural down during field use.
The outer fabric is coated with DWR, which increases its water repellency. Water droplets run off the surface of the material instead of immediately soaking into its structure. The coating helps protect the jacket against light rain, drizzle, morning dew, and moisture.
The inside of the jacket is finished with a 400T nylon lining, also coated with DWR. The smooth surface increases wearing comfort and makes it easier to put the jacket on over an additional layer of clothing.
Natural down filling
Insulation is provided by natural duck down in a 90/10 ratio - 90% down and 10% feathers. The down creates a three-dimensional structure that traps warmed air and limits its exchange with the cold surroundings. As a result, the jacket provides effective protection against heat loss while maintaining a relatively low weight.
The insulation with a grammage of 175 g/m2 is distributed in chambers created by horizontal quilting. This solution helps keep the down in the right place and limits its movement during wear. The even distribution of the insulation ensures stable thermal properties across the entire torso and sleeves.
Well-thought-out pocket layout
The Kiruna model is equipped with a total of 5 pockets:
- 2 side outer pockets closed with zips
- 1 vertical chest pocket closed with a zip
- 2 open inner pockets
The side pockets are lined with soft microfleece. They work well for warming your hands or carrying small items such as keys, a phone, or documents.
The vertical chest pocket provides quick access to the most frequently used accessories. The inner pockets offer additional space for a hat, gloves, a phone, or other lightweight equipment.
zip, integrated hood
The jacket is equipped with an integrated hood with a contoured brim that protects the head, forehead, and face from the cold and light precipitation. Thanks to the adjustment with cord locks, its circumference can be adjusted to fit the head and limit the inflow of cold air during windy weather.
At the front there is an SBS main zip running from the bottom edge of the jacket to the high collar. The zip features a chin guard flap to protect the chin from contact with the slider and a puller for easier operation while wearing gloves. When fully zipped up, the raised collar and hood create additional protection for the neck and head against the cold and gusts of wind.
Bottom hem adjustment, relaxed fit
The bottom edge of the jacket is equipped with a drawstring with cord locks. This solution allows the circumference to be adjusted to the silhouette and helps limit draughts from below.
The fit of the Kiruna model was developed to maintain comfort during activity. The quilted construction adapts to the silhouette while ensuring full freedom of movement.
