Alps & Meters Alpine Women's Anorak
The dashing and heroic men who explored the arctic brought the practical anorak to the attention of late 19th century and early 20th century royal houses, wealthy patrons, and scientific institutions who supported them, so it is not surprising that the anorak silhouette was adopted by tailors as the preferred style for upper class winter sportswear. The Alps & Meters Alpine Women's Anorak mirrors the refined simplicity of purpose of the period, where to cut an elegant figure on the mountain meant pairing an anorak with a pair of streamlined wool pants for the complete ensemble effect necessary to present the right picture of sport and refined sensibilities. Combining this early practical style with contemporary construction and a natural waxed face fabric the Alps & Meters Alpine Women's Anorak is an authentic and timeless piece that blends the past with the present. The hood is helmet compatible, and the shell is backed by a modern wind proof-water proof membrane, while the insulation is a fluffy Primaloft for warmth without added bulk. And of course, as befits our times0 this has a pass pocket on the sleeves!
