Our Most Versatile Insulator for Year-Round Mountain Adventure
Outdoor Research says:
The Vesper Insulated Jacket is the most versatile insulator in the OR collection, offering breathable warmth and weather resistance for alpine starts, long backcountry days, and shoulder-season hikes.
Built with lightweight, recycled bluesign® approved fabrics, the Vesper features VerticalX™ ECO SR™ insulation, which balances warmth, stretch, and breathability. Its wind- and water-resistant shell provides protection from unpredictable weather while maintaining comfort during high-output activities. Thoughtful design details like elastic cuffs, and adjustable drawcord hem optimize fit and functionality, while zippered hand and chest pockets offer secure storage for small essentials. The left-hand pocket doubles as a stuff sack, making this hoodie ultralight and easy to pack.
An essential layer for year-round mountain adventure and active outdoor pursuits, the Vesper Insulated Jacket delivers performance-driven warmth, weather protection, and packability in a lightweight design
