The lightest, most breathable option in our Insulation Collection, the Proton Super Lightweight Hoody takes the guesswork out of warming up on cold climbs and other high-output activities in cool conditions. The knit insulation holds its loft and shape—no matter how often you stuff it into the bottom of your pack. More importantly, it allows your body to breathe, so you’re not left a sweaty mess after you have to step on the gas to get through the crux.

About Arc’teryx
Founded in 1989 by Dave Lane, Arc’teryx is a high-end outdoor clothing and gear company that focuses on technical products for mountaineering. The inspiration for their brand derives from The Coast Mountains and is where their gear is tested by their designers, athletes, and industry professionals. The company’s name references the Archaeopteryx, a transitional fossil, to reflect their vision of constructing disruptive “evolutionary” innovation within the outdoor apparel and equipment industry. Arc’teryx works to reduce its environmental impact through responsible sourcing, manufacturing, and extreme durability. They aim to progress to a circular economy so that their material and products are not disposed of but rather re-used in a repeated loop for zero waste.
