Story
Meet Alpargali Puffer
Lightweight puffer? Incredibly warm puffer? How about both. Introducing the Alpargali Puffer, and your best winter life. Inspired by no less than NASA technology, this jacket excels at the urban life as well as outdoor adventures. Cutting-edge materials like aerogel and graphene delivers a weight-to-warmth ratio that’s unmatched.
30+ Features
The Alpargali Puffer defies the thermometer, effective from -40°C/-40°F to +10°C /50°F. It’s like having a premium down jacket without the fill. Add in a sleek, modern design with over 30 functions – including 9 pockets – and we’re talking a versatile, year-round outerwear solution for the city nomad and the natural explorer. Extreme cold or mild conditions, your comfort is the same. The weather may be unpredictable. This puffer’s elite performance is not.
Imagine combining the world’s lightest material, aerogel, the strength of graphene, and eco-friendly Sorona insulation. Then encasing it in a durable, Teflon-coated shell.
Aerogel offers exceptional thermal resistance, blocking cold from penetrating.
Graphene provides enhanced warmth, ensuring comfort in frigid conditions.
The Sorona® material keeps things insulated yet still lightweight.
And the waterproof outer shell keeps you dry and absorbs moisture, retaining heat even in damp conditions.
Extreme weather? Not so extreme anymore.
Aerogel, the world’s lightest solid, acts as an extraordinary thermal barrier by effectively blocking heat exchange. With a thickness of just 1.0mm, this advanced material maintains heat AND stonewalls cold air. This ensures the warmth generated inside stays inside, while the cold trying to seep in is blocked. No matter the conditions, you get maximum insulation with minimal bulk.
100% Graphene Back Panel Keeps the Heat
Embrace the cutting-edge power of graphene. With it, the Alpargali puffer creates unmatched warmth in any condition. The jacket features a 100% graphene panel in the center back, leveraging the material’s superior thermal conductivity to efficiently preserve body heat.
Sorona Insulation
Sorona® insulation is made in part with plant-based ingredients, it is a versatile fiber, and its long list of uses comes from a kink in the PTT polymer chain.
Full-torso Defense
