Lightweight insulation for demanding mountain conditions

The Mountain Equipment Intra Women's Hooded Jacket combines Helium 20D fabric with 60g m⁻² Aerius™ synthetic insulation to deliver a versatile balance of warmth, breathability and wind resistance. Built for climbers, mountaineers and ski tourers, it performs equally well as an outer layer during stable weather and as an insulating mid-layer beneath a shell when conditions become cold, damp and exposed. Designed for technical mountain use, it offers reliable comfort, unrestricted mobility and all-day wearability across varied terrain.

Performance & Engineering

• 60g m⁻² Aerius™ Synthetic Insulation – Engineered with a blend of high-resilience hollow fibres and fine-denier fibres to create a high-loft, low-weight insulation package that maintains warmth while remaining highly compressible for efficient packing.

• Helium 20D Outer Fabric – Built with Helium 20D fabric to provide lightweight wind resistance, excellent breathability and durability during ski touring, winter mountaineering and alpine climbing.

• Insulated Mountain HC Hood – Designed with rear volume adjustment and helmet compatibility to provide dependable protection and warmth during technical ascents and exposed ridgelines.

• Alpine Fit Construction – Engineered with articulated, pre-shaped sleeves and an alpine fit to support unrestricted movement when climbing, scrambling or layering over technical mountain clothing systems.

• Weather-Ready Mountain Details – Built with a DWR-treated outer fabric, insulated zip baffle, stretch cuffs and dual-tether hem drawcords to minimise heat loss and help shed light rain and snow during changing conditions.

Care & Longevity

Hand wash or machine wash at 30°C using liquid detergent or a specialist cleaner. Tumble dry on a low heat with a slow spin speed and store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid high washing temperatures, fabric conditioners and prolonged exposure to direct sunlight during storage to help maintain insulation loft and DWR performance.
