Mountain Equipment Aerotherm Hooded Women's Jacket

For many within Mountain Equipment's staff and team, the Aerotherm Hooded Women's Jacket is the go-to item for fast-paced mountain days in moderate weather. One of the most versatile jackets in the range, it seamlessly combines wicking capability with windproof protection to create a layer that works all day, whether running, hiking or climbing.

The Aerotherm uses a windproof Exolite 45 double weave soft shell for its outer layer. Lightweight, breathable and with a slight stretch, this fabric keeps the wind at bay while remaining comfortable and mobile. Inside, a soft and highly wicking micro-grid lining efficiently draws away moisture during focused uphill efforts. This layer also provides valuable warmth on exposed summits and ridgelines. Together, these layers dry exceptionally quickly and help maintain comfort in changeable mountain conditions and through stop-start activity.

Designed with a slim, active fit to minimise excess fabric, the Aerotherm layers well under a waterproof shell when necessary. An adjustable Mountain Hood with an elasticated border offers secure protection when running or in strong winds, but rolls away when not needed. Zipped hand pockets and a chest pocket store essentials, and the jacket packs neatly into its hand pocket with twin carry loops for easy carrying in a pack or on a harness.
