NovaUL Men's Jacket

The NovaUL Jacket is built to be the one insulation layer you reach for on most trips, balancing warmth, weather resistance, and weight in a highly versatile design. Using DownLT™ hybrid insulation and stitchless construction, it retains heat more efficiently while performing better in wind and damp conditions than traditional down jackets. At around 12 oz, it offers a strong warmth-to-weight ratio without limiting you to ideal weather.

Designed for 3-season use, the NovaUL works as your primary outer layer in cold conditions and adapts easily to changing environments with pit zips for ventilation and layering compatibility. It’s not the lightest jacket or the warmest — it’s the one that handles the widest range of conditions, making it a reliable choice for backpacking, alpine travel, and everyday outdoor use.

Care: Machine wash cold - alone & on delicate setting. Then tumble dry low, also on a delicate setting.

Packs Into Own Pocket: Easily transport or store the jacket in it's own left pocket! Simply flip the pocket inside out while stuffing the jacket inside, and zip closed. Use it when you need it, and pack it away when you don't! Also use the jacket as a pillow when it's packed away!

High Neck: Stay warm by sealing in the heat around your neck! When zipped up fully, the NovaUL Jacket goes all the way up to your chin for warmth and comfort.

Underarm Vents: If you start getting too warm but it's still cold out, you can unzip the underarm vents and immediately release heat to stabilize your temperature.

Insulated 2-Way Adjustable Hood: No matter which direction you turn your head, you can keep the hood out of your peripherals and see clearly by adjusting the fit of the hood to your head.

Adjustable Hem: Lock in heat by fitting the hem of the jacket to your hips and waist. No need to worry about cord ends hanging down, excess cord will be stored in the front pockets!

Water Repellent Shell: The Nova Zero Stitch™ fabric not only has 10,000 fewer stitch holes (potential leaking points), but is also treated, which makes it difficult to get the jacket wet. Water just beads up and rolls off! If the jacket does get wet, the insulation stays lofted and continues to insulate.

Insulated Zippered Pockets: Keep your hands warm in the insulated pockets. When combined with the thumbholes, you're hands will stay cozy! Also keep your valuables from being lost by zipping them securely into these pockets!

Athletic Fit & Drop Back: The athletic cut and drop back of the jacket keep you looking great no matter where you are. The drop back allows you to sit while keeping your rear and back fully covered.

Thumbholes: Keep your hands warm while still using your fingers and thumbs by using the reinforced thumbholes in the sleeves!
