Why We Like The Xenair Alpine Light Jacket
Of course, we're chilly while belaying at the bottom of the route, but when things heat up on the wall, we don't want to fuss with our layers. Luckily, the Xenair Alpine Light Jacket intuitively adapts to our conditions, so we're not likely to overheat or chill to the bone. Body-mapped PrimaLoft insulation and air-permeable Pertex Quantum Air fabric ensure our comfort, no matter our active output or the temperature around us.

First time buying an insulated puffer so not a lot to compare to. Happy after four days in the rain using this as a mid-layer to stay warm at camp and at night, lows under 50 if I had to guess. Seems to dry pretty quickly after getting wet. Have also used around town but it’s a tad warm for that. Only downside is things fall out of the pocket very easily when not zipped. I’m 5’10, 175 and got an M. I like the slim/tailored fit for a mid under my rain jacket.

Warm 30-50 degrees w just a T on. Super lightweight. Packable. Hood fits like a glove, zippered pockets. Love it.

Very warm and light for
Very warm and light for size. For me, the fit is small, mainly due to the non adjustable, quite tight fitting hood and a little narrower than usual across the shoulders for "a regular" fit. I moved to XL which is better, but the hood would still benefit from some adjustment to be able to pull it back off my face. Don't be put off though it is an excellent jacket if it fits you.

A really nice bit of kit. Very light and breathable. I wore and carried this every day for 2 weeks in the alps. The only improvement I'd suggest is a 2 way zip to make it more usable as a belay jacket.

This is a great item
This is a great item of clothing to pack for a hike. It packs up very small, is light and when used keeps you very well protected from the wind. I had originally thought its use would be occasional and limited, but it has quickly become my "go to" layer for everyday wear.

Got Xenair Alpine and Alpine Light, both great! Fit is great, especially movement in the shoulders, comfortable and must have piece for your layering system.

Great slim fit and keeps
Great slim fit and keeps the sleeve length (rare for a tall thin bloke!). Excellent under a harness on windy sea cliffs or as an extra layer on a multi-pitch belay. Also perfectly acceptable for the pub afterwards!!
