FOX DEFEND FIRE ALPHA VEST

The Fox Defend Fire Alpha Vest is the insulating layer for riders who keep heading out on the MTB when temperatures drop: an MTB vest that keeps your core warm, leaves your arms free and shrugs off contact with branches, rocks and mud. It is the piece to carry in your pack, or wear from the start, on autumn and winter trail rides.

At the heart of the design is Polartec® Alpha insulation, strategically placed to keep your core warm without overheating: on the climbs excess heat escapes, on the descents your torso stays protected from cold air. On the outside, Stretch Cordura® fabric combines abrasion resistance with stretch, so the vest moves with you on the bike instead of holding you back.

Insulation and materials of the Fox Defend Fire Alpha vest

• Polartec® Alpha insulation in key zones to keep the core warm without heat build-up
• Abrasion-resistant Stretch Cordura® fabric, made for hard off-road use
• Stretchy construction for maximum mobility on the bike and on technical sections
• Composition: 63% polyamide (nylon), 30% polyester, 7% elastane

Practical on the trail

• Sleeveless design, ideal over a long-sleeve technical jersey or a thermal base layer
• A perfect regulating layer: put it on at the start and take it off when the climb gets tough
• Paired with a windproof or waterproof jacket it becomes the base of a layering system for the coldest days
• Free arms mean no bulk under elbow pads
