Polartec Alpha Direct Thermo Control Pants - Dark Brown

The Snow Peak Polartec Alpha Direct Thermo Control Pants feature our favourite fabric in a warmer, thicker, 136 g/m² option for superior warmth retention. Its unique mesh construction promotes excellent breathability, preventing heat and moisture build-up. The fabric dries quickly and maintains insulation even when wet, ensuring consistent thermal performance in varying conditions. Ultra light, made to be worn as a throw-on layer when the sun goes down or as a midlayer under pants for extra cosies.

Polartec Alpha Direct was originally developed for the US military as an insulated fill alternative, it has taken off in popularity with ultralight hikers as a standalone fleece replacement. By placing patented low-density fibres between air permeable woven layers Polartec® created a more efficient fabric for regulating warmth and transferring moisture. This advancement increases thermal adaptability in changing conditions and different phases of physical activity. Alpha is also hydrophobic, so it won't absorb moisture even if you start to sweat. Alpha is certified Standard 100 by OEKO-TEX®.
