Made with 100% recycled face fabrics, it features our highest-specification waterproof-breathable technology: 3-layer Barrier CT Pro™. With 50.000 mm+ waterproofing, breathability, wind resistance, and durable protection, it is designed to perform when conditions turn demanding.

With 7+ technical features, including five essential pockets, SBS waterproof zippers, a helmet-compatible adjustable hood, and underarm ventilation, the Alpine Shell is equipped for long days in changing conditions.

Its regular fit gives you unrestricted movement with enough room for up to two layers underneath.

Sustainability

We believe great products start with strong values. That’s why our manufacturing emphasizes transparency, long-term partnerships, and a people-first approach. We prioritize fair working conditions and sustainable practices, backed by our B-Corp certification.

We choose manufacturing partners based on verified social audits, assessing fair wages, safe conditions, reasonable hours, and workers’ rights. This ensures our products meet high ethical standards.

By building lasting relationships with trusted suppliers, we maintain control over our supply chain and work only with those who share our values—delivering outdoor-ready products with minimal environmental impact.

Care & warranty

Care Instructions:

Close all fastenings before washing. Use a gentle cycle at 30°C. Avoid bleach, chemicals, and fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low heat and iron at a low temperature if needed.

Our technical fabrics are designed to perform; fabric softeners interfere with their breathability and water-repellent properties, so skip them.

For insulated pieces, tumble dry separately on low heat with a few tennis balls to help restore the loft. No dryer? Give the garment a good shake and gently redistribute the filling by hand.

Product warranty & repais:

We offer a 3-year warranty on all our Cortazu items. We also offer a repair service for your garments. For more information on warranty and repairs, click here.

Good to know

Which size should I take?

Regular fit with room for up to two layers underneath, and athletic sleeves for freedom of movement. Check the size guide or the virtual fitting room. Wrong size? Exchange it within 21 days in the EU.

Can I try it on first?

Yes, in our store at Bilderdijkstraat 136HS, Amsterdam.

How do I keep it waterproof?

Wash at 30°C with liquid detergent or a technical wash, without fabric softener. If water stops beading, wash and dry the jacket first, then reapply a water-repellent treatment.
