The most insulated technical down jacket Outdoor Research makes. The Outdoor Research Men's Super Alpine Down Parka pairs 800 fill down with a Pertex® Quantum Pro shell for warmth in extreme cold, and was developed with the brand's athlete team for ice climbing and high-altitude expeditions.

The details are climber-led. The hood is helmet-compatible with an adjustable hood lock, and the tall front collar is lined with brushed tricot so your face has something warm to bury into on an early alpine start. The hood, sleeves and side body are quilt-free, so there are fewer seams to snag or wear through and durability goes up where a parka takes the most punishment.

Choose the Super Alpine when a standard belay jacket isn't enough: ice climbing, high-altitude expeditions and pre-dawn starts in extreme cold.
