For Spring/Summer ‘26, the Swedish brand introduces the latest addition to the Freelight Family, and a breakthrough in outdoor insulation: the Freelight Polartec® Alpha™ Hood (available for men and women). Made from Polartec® Alpha™ knit fabric, the super-lightweight hooded jacket (just 200g) is temperature regulating, sweat wicking, fast drying, and super breathable. It keeps heat when you need it, and releases it when you don’t, making it the perfectcompanion for a range of stop-start alpine activities, from trail running to downhill skiing.

The Freelight Family is always evolving, and the Freelight Polartec® Alpha™ Hood, is unique in that it can be worn as a single layer, with no need to keep adjusting clothing for changes in body heat or outdoor environment. Just pure, lightweight, unbeatable performance, all day long. The ultimate outdoor layer.

FREELIGHT ALPHA® POLARTEC HOOD: THE BREAKDOWN
● A multi-activity hooded insulating jacket engineered to regulate heat, eliminate moisture, and dry
in no time at all.
● Made from POLARTEC® ALPHA™ KNIT FABRIC, a material that uses lofted fibre technology
and a mesh core to promote the retention of warm air, or enhanced airflow, depending on the
conditions.
● POLARTEC® ALPHA™ KNIT has hydrophobic properties, allowing it to actively repel moisture,
and dry quickly. It also fights moisture build-up, maintaining insulation in even damp conditions.
● The Hood is cut with raglan sleeves, allowing for a greater range of movement, and its flatlock
covering seams offer a frictionless wearing experience. The high neckline combats windchill, and
the fitted hood is comfortable without being bulky.
● The Freelight Polartec® Alpha™ Hood is super lightweight, just 200g (85gsm), and highly
compressible, with no damage to insulation, making it perfect for stuffing in a bag, or even a
pocket.
● The Hood features reflective zip-pullers and a zipped chest pocket for small items
