Le Bent Men’s Alpha Active Insulated Hybrid Jacket

The Le Bent Men’s Alpha Active Insulated Hybrid Jacket is a high-output, merino-blend mid layer that fuses Polartec® Alpha Active insulation with mapped merino fleece panels for breathable warmth during every stop-and-go mission.

Breathable Warmth That Moves With You

• Performance hybrid mid layer: Strategically combines heavyweight 280gm waffle-grid merino fleece, lightweight 200gm Signature Merino Blend, and Polartec® Alpha Active insulation so you stay warm without overheating when you’re working hard.
• Wind-blocking shell with DWR: A high-performance nylon taffeta wind barrier treated with DWR shrugs off light snow and drizzle and cuts biting wind while staying light and packable.
• Signature Merino Blend comfort: Le Bent’s merino-bamboo blend delivers ultra-soft, itch-free comfort, natural odor resistance, and excellent moisture management right next to your skin.
• Built for high-output days: Polartec® Alpha Active insulation is designed to breathe and dry quickly, making this jacket ideal for touring, side-country laps, trail runs, and any day with big climbs and cool-down breaks.
• Slim, athletic fit: A men’s-specific slim cut with underarm gussets, stretch binding, and no shoulder seams lets you move freely and comfortably under a pack or shell.
• Packable and fast-drying: Lightweight, compressible construction stuffs easily into a pack and dries quickly between missions, so it’s always ready for the next lap.
• Thoughtful mountain details: Hidden chest and hand pockets, durable YKK® zippers, and stretch woven binding at the cuffs and hem round out a clean, technical design that just works.
