Helikon-Tex Wolfhound lightweight & insulated mid layer jacket
Description
Helikon-Tex Wolfhound Jacket – Lightweight Insulated Jacket
The Helikon-Tex Wolfhound Jacket is a lightweight, warm and highly packable jacket designed for field use, outdoor activities and everyday wear. It combines Climashield® Apex™ synthetic insulation with a wind-resistant outer fabric, offering reliable thermal comfort in changing weather conditions.
Climashield® Apex™ Insulation – Warmth Even When Wet
Unlike down, synthetic insulation continues to provide warmth even if it becomes damp. The 67 g/m² Climashield® Apex™ insulation used in the Wolfhound does not clump, remains breathable, and recovers well after compression.
- Keeps insulating even in wet conditions
- Lightweight and breathable
- Compressible and easy to pack
- Machine washable
Windpack® Nylon – Protection Against Wind Chill
The outer shell is made from Windpack® Nylon, a lightweight, quick-drying fabric designed to reduce the chilling effect of wind during breaks, low-intensity movement, and everyday outdoor use.
- Reduces wind penetration
- Quick-drying outer fabric
- Improves overall thermal comfort
Hydrophobic Outer Finish
The fabric is treated with a hydrophobic coating that increases resistance to dirt and light moisture. This helps the jacket stay cleaner for longer and makes it easier to maintain.
Freedom of Movement
To improve mobility, the Wolfhound features VersaStretch® panels under the arms. These flexible inserts help the jacket move naturally with the body during active use.
- Better range of motion
- Improved comfort during dynamic movement
- Less restriction when layering or carrying gear
Field-Oriented Functional Details
- Elastic cuffs help seal out wind
- Hem drawcord improves fit and reduces heat loss
- Soft fleece-lined collar increases comfort and reduces chafing
- Hook-and-loop panel on sleeve for patch personalization
