Details
We designed this lightweight, packable micropuff to be worn as insulation under your shell on the mountain. But you’ll don the Calypso Jacket off the hill, too. It fits sleek and slim and since it doesn’t have a hood, it’s perfect for layering. (Think of it like the cheese in your layering sandwich.) Its PrimaLoft Eco insulation is made from 60 percent post-consumer recycled goods to keep those pesky water bottles out of landfills. It’s packed with technical features, too: Durable Water Repellent and waterproof zippers to keep you dry and calculated stitch lines for movement.

The 2021 Calypso Jacket Features
50/50 Inbounds/Out-Of-Bounds
Conditions dependent, you split your time pretty evenly between the ski resort and the backcountry, which means you need gear that's tough and waterproof enough for the pounding of tram laps and storm skiing inbounds but won't sweat out on a climb on those days you decide to earn your turns. Here, we opt for fabrics and features that do double duty, like jacket powder skirts you can zip out or bib pants made for versatile pursuits.

Best of the Year
“We love puffers with hoods, but double—sometimes triple—hooding on your ski kit can be bulky and downright uncomfortable. Which is why we dig the sleek and slim Flylow Calypso."

The 2021 Calypso Jacket Features
Pertex Quantum
What good is down insulation inside a jacket if the exterior fabric isn’t doing anything in support? Pertex Quantum is like the insulation’s maid of honor—it’s there to make sure all the pieces fall into place. This tightly woven exterior fabric, constructed from fine yarns, has a light, soft feel that allows the insulation to fully loft. It traps still air to improve the warmth and efficiency of the insulating layer, and it’s coated with a DWR to dispel wind, rain, and snow.
Primaloft Eco Insulation
The performance experts at PrimaLoft, Inc., have combined 80% recycled materials with advanced fiber technology to create a high performing eco-friendly insulation for immediate warmth without the bulk.
High Performance DWR
We dare you to go stand in a shower or the next rainstorm with your favorite Flylow jacket on. See how the water molecules roll off the shell fabric? That’s due to our high-performance Durable Water Repellent, a polymer coating added to fabric that makes it hydrophobic, meaning moisture beads up and rolls off, like marbles on glass.
