Comfortable, versatile and reversable insulating vest with Swisswool for long days in the mountains

Highlights

  • Ideal weight-to-insulation ratio (90g/m) for a reversible vest
  • Breathable, windproof, and extremely scuff-resistant.
  • Super sustainable

With its low weight and good insulation, the Swisswool  PIZ CARTAS VEST for men is perfect for strenuous ski touring days where every gram counts.

The outer layer is made of PERTEX QUANTUM, a windproof, breathable, and extremely scuff-resistant material made from recycled polyamide. Its 90g/m2 Swisswool lining can also absorb and release large quantities of moisture, and it warms even when wet.

The Swisswool PIZ CARTAS VEST for men is a versatile companion thanks to its colors and cut. This practical reversible vest is understated and provides two styles in one.

With its elasticated hem, the lightweight insulating vest adapts to fit the body perfectly. Merino mesh inserts in the large front pockets provide added comfort and keep your hands warm. The bonded breast pocket is backpack compatible and provides enough space to store a map or trail bar on your ski tour.

With the Swisswool  PIZ CARTAS VEST for men, you’ll be ready for any tour, no matter how strenuous.

Pertex Quantum

Sustainable PERTEX® QUANTUM material is made of recycled polyamide, and its tight weave makes it extremely windproof and abrasion resistant yet comfortably soft. It is also particularly lightweight with a small pack size.

This is a great vest. The pockets are well positioned, it's trim without being too slim, and since this vest is reversible, it's like getting two vest for one. I'm lucky enough to also have the Piz Boe vest which is a bit thinner, so this vest is warmer than the Piz Boe. It fits great under a shell, and over a base-layer. I'm 5'10" and wear a medium. My wife liked mine so much I had to get her one for herself. I highly recommend the Piz Cartas vest.
