With a full-length side-zip for easy removal or layering, the Strafe Alpha Short is a clutch piece for frigid resort laps, long sled-skiing days, chilly dawn patrol alpine starts, or relaxing at a backcountry hut. Featuring the lightweight, breathable, and quick-drying Polartec Alpha, the active insulation will maintain critical warmth for your knees and legs without bunching at your boots. Wear these shorts under or over your shell pants for additional comfort and warmth on those extra cold days when the thermometer dips below zero.  Introduced a few years ago in response to a request for more than just a wool baselayer to wear under a shell, the insulator shorts provide warm support to your upper body, thigh muscles, and joints. Between the Recon AIR fabric and the 100% recycled Polartec® Alpha™ Insulation, The Strafe Alpha Insulator Short for Men give you both warmth and breathability under a shell or over a pair of tights, for a truly functional and versatile insulator.
