Women's Fanes Sarner Light Jacket - Dark Purple Melange - Small

The Fanes Sarner Light Jacket combines South Tirolean mountain heritage with contemporary styling and performance. Made with Salewa's lightweight blended Alpine Wool Iconic fabrics, it features 100% recycled wool yarns and traditional Sarner purl knit workmanship for active alpine use. Wool is the ideal insulation material: its sustainable, breathable, naturally thermo-regulating, works when wet and is naturally odour-resistant. However, wool apparel has not always been able to offer the comfort or performance sought by modern alpinists. Salewa blends a Sarner knit construction with its dense, warm wool fabric that offers greater resistance to wind and rain with the brand's new proprietary Alpine Wool Iconic made of wool and smart textiles. You get the benefits of wool and the fashionable look and feel of traditional Sarner workmanship, in a softer, lighter and higher performance package. At the torso, Salewa uses hybrid yarns made of recycled wool (45%), viscose (33%) and polyamide (16%), to produce a 380-gram Sarner Lite knit with enhanced softness and hydrophobic properties. On the inside, Salewa backs it with a bonded, soft and comfortable viscose liner and inner collar for enhanced protection from cold mountain winds. On the arms, where softness and freedom of movement are key, Salewa opts for breathable Polarwool wool fleece (38%), acrylic (38%) and polyester (24%). This jacket also has strong sustainability credentials: the wool yarns used for the main body are 100% post-consumer recycled wool (Cardato certification). In addition, the yarn production and manufacturing take place in Italy and the environmental impact of the entire production cycle for this jacket has been carefully studied to reduce water and energy consumption, pollution and CO2 emissions.
