Product Information
Full details
The Montane Icarus 3.0 Hooded Insulated Jacket is designed for adult hikers and mountaineers seeking reliable warmth in cold, damp, or unpredictable mountain environments. It excels by combining the wind-resistant protection of PERTEX QUANTUM fabric with synthetic PRIMALOFT RISE insulation, ensuring you stay warm even when the jacket gets wet. The main caveat to keep in mind is that while it is highly packable and versatile, it is primarily an insulation layer for active use, so users may need additional hardshell layers in extreme, wet-storm conditions.

FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
The jacket is windproof and offers some protection against light drizzle, but it is not waterproof and should be paired with a shell in heavy rain.
Can I wear this while hiking?
Yes, it is designed for active use, featuring articulated reach-fit construction to allow for a full range of motion.
How do I wash the Icarus 3.0?
Wash on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and follow the specific care instructions on the garment label.
Is the insulation recycled?
The PRIMALOFT RISE insulation used in the Icarus 3.0 is engineered for high performance, and the jacket uses a YKK NATULON recycled zipper.
What is the fit like?
The jacket features an athletic fit designed for movement; consider if you intend to layer heavily underneath when selecting your size.
Troubleshooting
Insulation appears flat or clumped after storage
Gently shake and tumble dry on a low-heat setting for a short period to restore the loft of the PRIMALOFT synthetic fibers.
The outer fabric is absorbing water
The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish may have worn off; treat the garment with a technical spray-on DWR product specifically designed for nylon shells.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Icarus 3.0 performs at its peak, proper care is essential. Always consult the care label inside the jacket before washing. Generally, machine wash on a gentle cycle using a mild, non-biological detergent to preserve the water-repellent finish of the nylon fabric. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can strip the windproof coating.
For compatibility, the jacket works best as a mid-layer under a waterproof hardshell or as an outer layer during dry, cold conditions. The YKK NATULON recycled zip is durable and easy to operate even with gloved hands, though it is recommended to keep the track free of grit and debris to ensure smooth operation over long-term use.
