Product Information

Full details

The Montane Icarus 3.0 Insulated Hoodie Jacket is a versatile, lightweight synthetic layer designed for hikers, climbers, and mountaineers who face cold and damp conditions. By utilizing recycled PRIMALOFT RISE insulation and a windproof PERTEX QUANTUM shell, it provides reliable warmth and freedom of movement without the bulk associated with traditional down jackets, though it is intended as a technical layering piece rather than an extreme-weather expedition parka.

FAQs

Is this jacket waterproof?

The jacket is windproof and features a water-repellent treatment to shed light rain and snow, but it is not fully waterproof.

Can I wear this while climbing?

Yes, the articulated REACH construction is specifically designed to allow for improved arm lift and forward reach during climbing and scrambling.

What is the primary benefit of synthetic insulation over down?

Synthetic insulation, such as the PRIMALOFT RISE used here, retains its warmth and loft even when wet, making it better for damp, cold climates.

Is the jacket packable?

Yes, the lightweight materials and synthetic fill allow the jacket to be compressed easily for packing in a rucksack.

How should I clean the jacket?

Wash on a gentle cycle with a technical detergent and tumble dry on low heat to maintain the loft of the insulation.

Does it have an adjustable hem?

Yes, the jacket features an adjustable hem to help seal in warmth and customize the fit.

Troubleshooting

Water is soaking into the fabric rather than beading up.

The DWR coating has likely worn off. Wash the jacket with a technical gear cleaner and re-apply a DWR spray treatment.

Insulation feels flat after long-term storage.

Tumble dry the jacket on a low heat setting for 10-15 minutes with clean tennis balls to agitate and re-loft the synthetic fibers.

Zippers feel stiff or snag.

Clean any debris or grit from the zipper track and apply a dedicated zipper lubricant or a small amount of paraffin wax.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Lightweight at approximately 430g
  • Excellent warmth-to-weight ratio
  • Performs well in damp, cold environments
  • Superior range of motion for active users

  • Limited protection against sustained, heavy downpours
  • Beige colorway may show dirt more easily than darker shades

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This jacket is designed as a standalone layer or a mid-layer. To maximize its performance, pair it with a waterproof hardshell in heavy rain. For care, wash the garment in a front-loading machine on a gentle cycle using a technical cleaner designed for synthetic insulation. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can compromise the DWR finish and the breathability of the nylon fabric. Always tumble dry on a low heat setting to help restore the loft of the insulation. Re-apply a DWR treatment spray periodically if you notice water no longer 'beads' on the surface of the fabric.
