"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: ""This parka has become my go-to midlayer. The Polartec Alpha Direct is super warm for its weight, but it’s also breathable enough that I don’t overheat on the move. I’ll throw it on like a hoodie around camp or layer it under a shell when the weather turns—it works both ways perfectly."" The Thermo Control Zip Up Parka brings high-performance warmth in a lightweight, versatile design. Snow Peak uses Polartec Alpha Direct 136 g/m² fabric, one of the loftiest options available, giving us powerful insulation that doesn’t trap excess heat or moisture. The mesh-like structure moves air freely and dries quickly, keeping us comfortable even when conditions shift. With a casual zip-up style, it wears easily like a sweatshirt for chilly evenings or works seamlessly as a breathable midlayer beneath a rain shell. Lightweight, packable, and reliable even when damp, this parka is a staple for adventures that range from alpine treks to backyard campfires."
