DESCRIPTION

Active insulation disguised as a sweater.

The Alpha Sweater hides technical insulation inside a casual silhouette. Made in the USA with Polartec® Alpha® Direct, this sweater is purpose built for stop-and-go efforts, like bike riding, where you need to dump heat quickly. The lofted fibers sit on a super breathable mesh core, keeping you warm without weighing you down. It is also 50% lighter and more compressible than traditional fleece. Weight weenies, read that again.

Originally adopted by thru-hikers, Alpha Direct is so lightweight it almost feels like magic. Unlike traditional fleece, it releases excess heat while you ride and traps warmth when you stop.

Technical fabrics work hard, but they appreciate a little care in return. Follow the golden rule: treat it as you’d like to be treated. Wash gently and hang to dry to keep it performing its best for years to come.

Special projects

One of the most sustainable things we can do? Use what already exists. That’s the concept behind Special Projects—limited-run garments made from premium deadstock fabrics, cut and sewn in California. When they're gone, they're gone.

Made in USA

Everything in our Special Projects Collection is made in California. Working closely with our sewing partners helps us maintain quality, move quickly, and build real relationships with the people who bring these pieces to life.

Deadstock Fabric

Deadstock is fabric that was overproduced, abandoned, or never made it to the cutting table. Instead of letting it sit in a warehouse, we turn it into something new. The catch? We only get one shot.

Very Limited

Deadstock, by definition, is limited. We may love a color or texture, but when the fabric is gone, it's gone. Each piece is an invitation to create something unique, and your chance to own a small part of history, Ornot.

Ornot + Polartec

Great minds think alike—and by great minds, we mean anyone who sees the potential in leftover fabric. Polartec has been pioneering recycled textiles for years, which makes them a natural fit for our Special Projects. Whether it’s upcycling deadstock or reinventing performance fabrics, we’re both on a mission to make more out of what’s already here. As our partnership grows, so does our lineup of smarter, more responsible gear. Ride in it, geek out over it, or both.
