Keep moving with this tough, flexible softshell jacket. It’s reinforced in the shoulders and sleeves, making it perfect for energetic climbs on rough terrain, winter hikes, and scrambles.

The Scimitar is a midweight softshell that strikes a great balance between warmth, protection, and mobility. It's an excellent outer layer for unpredictable weather or when paired with a hardshell for heavy rain. With wind resistance and amazing breathability, you can stay comfortable without worrying about constantly changing layers in shifting conditions.

The soft, brushed Matrix™ fabric quickly wicks moisture away and dries fast while keeping you comfortable during intense activities. Reinforcements in wear-prone areas handle rock abrasion and the stress from pack straps effectively. With its stretchy design, it allows you the freedom to move easily on steep slopes. Keep out the cold with adjustable cuffs and a protective hood crafted to block wind while ensuring your visibility with a sturdy peak and easy head movement. Whether you're using a walking axe or trekking with poles, the Scimitar is a versatile jacket that keeps you comfy in various environments.
