Lightweight Synthetic Warmth for Alpine Missions
The Mountain Equipment Particle Hooded Women's Jacket is a highly versatile insulated layer built for cold-weather missions in the mountains. Designed to perform as either a lightweight outer shell or a warm mid-layer, it delivers dependable protection and insulation across a range of alpine activities.
Filled with 100% recycled POLARLOFT® Featherless insulation, this jacket offers the lightweight warmth of down with the wet-weather performance and durability of synthetic fill. The windproof, PFAS-free recycled outer fabric repels light rain and snow, making it a reliable outer layer in mild winter conditions.
Its Women’s Alpine fit ensures a low-bulk silhouette perfect for layering under a shell, while stretch fleece panels and elastane-bound cuffs and hem enhance mobility and comfort. When the day warms up or the weather changes, the Particle packs into its own pocket and clips easily to your harness or pack via integrated karabiner loops.
Whether you’re ski touring, alpine climbing, or hiking in the cold, the Particle is a lightweight essential for all-season mountain adventures.
