Built for lightweight ascents and to help you pare back kit on remote, multi-day expeditions, the Kinetic Alpine 2.0 is a versatile, high-stretch, waterproof shell for hikers, climbers, and mountaineers.

It uses soft and quiet waterproof Proflex™ fabric with a breathable waterproof membrane, 100% recycled face fabric, and a fast-wicking backer to shift moisture during high-energy ascents. Reinforced panels across the hip, arm, shoulders, and hood protect against abrasion and exposure to tough, technical climbs. Designed with a closer fit than a traditional shell, its flexible construction is combined with a range of high-spec features.

For all-day dryness, comfort, and mobility, it has water-resistant AquaGuard® zips, a helmet-compatible hood, and easy adjustment at the hood, hem, and cuffs. Tough but flexible, waterproof but breathable, this is the ultimate ‘soft’ hardshell for a committed alpine adventure.
