One offering of Polartec®’s advanced fabrics that we use in our mid layers is called Alpha™.
Polartec® Alpha™ insulation material
Features
Polartec® Alpha™ insulation material
Originally developed specifically for the U.S. Special Forces, Polartec® Alpha™ is the to-go fabric for start-stop conditions. It has superior insulation for extreme temperature changes, and is also fast-drying, lightweight, durable, breathable, and hydrophobic. Alpha™ is an active insulation fabric technology that regulates core body temperatures during dynamic and static activities. It has been engineered for consistent warmth, while allowing greater breathability during activity. Furthermore, it’s all the warmth without the weight. In terms of the fabric construction, it’s a versatile, standalone material with resilient and durable lofted-knit fibers connected to a solid mesh core. What it does is limit cold air that enters garment, yet moves excess heat away from the body. By moving the vapor away from the body, it prevents or tries to stop overheating. The fast-drying and hydrophobic yarns help make it happen.

Product details
Product information
With a spec list that puts most comparable mid layer jackets to shame, you could say our Climate 3 mid layer jacket is pretty much climate control with sleeves. It’s low weight and high tech all the way thanks to Polartec® Alpha® active and breathable insulation. Made to keep the U.S. Special Forces warm with sustained comfort without shedding layers, this innovative insulating material is made specifically to provide temperature regulation in active situations when you’re on the move.
Full-stretch design with a purposefully snug fit. To assure ideal working conditions, our R&D incorporated the military grade Polartec® Alpha® into a full-stretch design with a purposefully snug fit. With added range-extending features like the inherent quick-dry, hydrophobic properties, durable ventilation under the armpits, as well as two side pockets and a chest pocket, this on-the-bike mid layer works perfectly well as a light off-the-bike insulating jacket, too.
Better yet, it’s designed to look just as good snugly worn under your motorcycle jacket as it does in broad daylight. Fully functional and fully fashionable – all rolled into one.
