What is the Taiss Light ML?
It's a stretchy fleece midlayer designed for mountain activities in any season. Whether mountaineering, alpine climbing or ski touring with friends, the Taiss Light will keep you feeling cosy in cold conditions and could even be worn as a lightweight outer layer on warmer, drier days!
What is it made of?
The Taiss Light comprises a technical nylon fleece with a four-way stretch that is lightweight and feels soft against the skin.
Nylon is incredibly robust, increasing the longevity of the jacket. It can withstand regular use in the mountains without looking worn and shabby once you return home from your trip.
The four-way stretch enhances flexibility and freedom of movement for steep technical ascents to help keep you comfortable and performing your best, no matter your activity.
This material is effective at wicking away moisture from the skin, helping to regulate temperature when working hard and stopping you from feeling clammy and sweaty inside your layering system.
What are its features?
This fleece has a tight-fitting hood that can comfortably layer underneath a climbing helmet in colder climates. The hood has an elastic trim to enhance the fit and cinch in the fabric around the face for maximum heat retention.
Zippered pockets offer a secure place to store snacks, energy gels, a GPS device or balm. These pockets are backpack- and climbing- harness compatible for easy access when you're roped up or strapped into a pack.
Gussets have been added under the arms for added stretch and improved mobility, perfect for tackling steep ascents, using walking poles or climbing. Each cuff has a built-in thumb loop that closes neatly at the opening, helping them look more subtle when they're not being used.
Finally, the seams are flattened to help prevent rubbing and chafing against the skin when worn for extended periods.
