Platatac Silks Alpha Jacket - No Hood AMCU

The ultralight Platatac Silks Alpha Jacket is an upgraded thermal version of the standard LW Silks using windproof and water repellent shell fabric with the addition of high tech Polartec® Alpha® active insulation lining. Ultralight, stuffable & incredibly versatile thermal regulation. In this version we did a ‘hood delete’ as we’ve had a large number of requests for a No Hood option. We listened.

Designed with the fight light philosophy in mind and designed to be thrown on when stopped after you’ve been hard on the move, it's lightweight and small enough to stash in your gear in case some unexpected protection from the weather is required when a hard-shell isn’t available.

Polartec® Alpha® was invented for U.S. Special Forces. They required a superior insulation system for extreme temperature variations & the start-stop conditions of combat.

At just 340g (size M), the Platatac Silks Alpha NH Jacket is a truly feather weight option which is highly packable, and incredibly versatile insulation garment that offers outstanding wind resistance and thermal regulation in a tiny package.

Polartec® Alpha®
Polartec® Alpha® is the original active insulation, invented to offer both superior breathability and dependable warmth during all attar-atop activities. Resilient lofted fibres connected to a durable mesh core provide versatile performance in all conditions and environments.
