The perfect combination of light weight and insulation: ISPO GOLD WINNER!

Super-light, versatile insulating jacket made from SWISSWOOL for any alpine tour

Elastic, lightweight and with optimum insulation: Our NAKED SHEEP never has to freeze on a ski tour, even in the biting cold and in stormy weather, because our ZEBRU JACKET for men from the SWISSWOOL TEC STRETCH series stands for a whole new dimension of lightness and insulation.

On the way to stormy, snow-topped summits the NAKED SHEEP keeps it light, but at the same time also requires insulation and protection. That’s exactly where our SWISSWOOL ZEBRU JACKET comes into play: The SWISSWOOL LINE provides an unbeatable combination of insulation, freedom of movement and light weight. Thanks to a sophisticated processing technique for the lightweight 70g/m² SWISSWOOL lining, we have managed to take our insulating material to a whole new level: The specially developed material composition and special production technology give the lining elasticity. Elastic, breathable, wind and water-resistant TEC STRETCH is used as outer material.

Thanks to the elastic waistband and cuffs, the ZEBRU JACKET sits perfectly no matter how you move. At the same time, the ergonomic cut of this light insulating jacket guarantees the perfect fit and is thus perfect for demanding ski tours. The breast pocket has room for small items such as a map, cell phone or trail bar and can be easily accessed, even when wearing a backpack. What’s more, the jacket can be stored in its own breast pocket (stow pocket) and can be fastened to a belt or backpack with the inner loop. 

This makes the ZEBRU JACKET perfect for our NAKED SHEEP: Light weight, insulation and maximum freedom of movement.

PART OF THE NAKED SHEEP LINE
Scaled down to function
The NAKED SHEEP loves the feeling of unlimited freedom. No heart rate monitor, no records. Instead, it seeks those important moments that are far away from the hustle and bustle. The NAKED SHEEP is light on expeditions but never takes risks. Like in the new COLLECTION, FUNCTION and PROTECTION are his main focus. It’s the only way that the NAKED SHEEP can adapt to conditions.

Equipment:
SWISSWOOL
Born out of a pioneering spirit and shaped by our innovative strength, ORTOVOX introduced the first SWISSWOOL products in 2011 – and simultaneously created a new segment of insulating wool products! Wool offers excellent thermal properties and optimum climate comfort. In addition to high functionality, SWISSWOOL is also characterized by its regional origin, its sustainable production and processing.

SWISSWOOL TEC-STRETCH
TEC-STRETCH is a special polyamide material that provides both protection and freedom of movement. Our breathable, wind and water-resistant TEC-STRETCH outer layer perfectly complements its SWISSWOOL lining and underlines the excellent weight-to-insulation ratio.

I practice intensive mountain sports for many years. i bought my first Zebru in 2018, really impressive jacket! Never seen a jacket keeping me warm in winter at 12,000 feet on the ridge with wind and so light when i compare to all my other gears. I bought a second one just recently to have one in each of my places. plus i bought one for my 3 kids and my wife! Amazing product! It's not the only Ortovox product that i have but for sure, the Zebru is the one that impresses me the most!

After buying the Piz Boe, I wanted something that was a bit lighter and packable for the summer months. The Zebru exceeded my expectations. It's warm for its weight, feels great against the skin if I wear a t-shirt, and breathable. I had a Mountain Hardware Ghost Whisper, and the Zebru adds water resistance (though not as much as the Piz Boe, but it does regulate temperature better) and warmth when wet for an unnoticeable weight increase. It's also more durable, and though it hasn't shown any signs of wear, I don't think its as durable as the Piz Boe, but that's the weight tradeoff you make. Worth every penny, and I would certainly pay more for a couple extra pockets :)
