Topo Designs Subalpine Jacket

With its vintage-inspired blue, black and white colouring, the Subalpine Jacket from Topo Designs is a twin-layered staple from the brand’s latest season-mindful release. Made from 100% nylon taslan with a durable water-repellent finish and a breathable polyester lining for added comfort, this long sleeve jacket is styled to a regular fitting at a low-hip length, whilst its fully-adjustable velcro fastened cuffs, its straight-cut hemline and its 6-popper YKK zipper concealed placket offer more insulative wear through the colder months. The full-sized hood is styled with a performance-orientated visor and toggle-cord trims, whilst the extended collar and the dual-shock adjusters at the hem provide additional security features should they be needed. Two well-defined slash pockets can be found above the waist with bright red seams and neon-yellow pull tabs, with a smaller internal zippered chest pocket marking the perfect spot for stashing away smaller, more valuable items when not in use. Plain weave nylon with crisp-white ripstop panels decorate both the front and rear-facing yoke, sleeves and lower waist, whilst the bold-blue colouring across the remaining panels fuses neatly with the colour-matched ‘Topo Designs’ map patch embroidered across the left chest.

Built for impromptu treks into the wilderness, urban settings and essential travel journeys, Topo Designs is a free-spirited and clean-lined outdoor brand with firm roots in the USA-made game. Inspired by natural environments and a desire to support local communities through initiatives such as their LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certified set-ups, Topo never ceases to deliver when it comes to visionary direction and well-formulated gear.
