Designed for mountaineering during spring, summer, and fall, this lightweight fleece vest is a versatile mid-layer that excels in active conditions where mobility, breathability, and wind protection are key. Whether you're traversing a ridgeline, ski touring, or on a high-output hike, the Falketind Warm2 Octa Vest delivers core warmth without restricting movement or airflow.

• Warm2 Octa™ Dual-Fabric System
  The body of the vest features Norrona’s unique bonded fleece construction:

  • Outer Face: Durable, soft, 100% recycled polyester melange knit (60D / 46-gauge), offering wind resistance, moisture wicking, and PFC-free DWR finish for light weather protection.

  • Octa™ Liner: A high-performance multi-channel fiber insulation (57% recycled polyester / 43% polyester) that provides superior moisture transport, lightweight warmth, and continuous airflow—keeping your core dry and comfortable during exertion.

• Targeted Ventilation with Warm1 Panels
  The back and underarm zones feature Warm1 fleece (170 g/m²) made from 70% recycled polyester, optimized for breathability and stretch, enabling better heat release and ventilation during high activity levels.

• Odor Control
  Both fabrics are treated with a sustainable anti-odor finish, helping you stay fresher longer on multi-day trips or intense training sessions.
