I was watching Exo Mountain Gear’s latest YouTube video of their elk hunt. It looked like the guys were wearing an alpha active insulation piece with no to minimal branding (from what I could tell). Anyone have any idea what this was? I could see the insulation when they were unzipped and also when hoods were up.

Check out the 16 min mark.

This is a prototype piece by outdoor vitals that’s not on the market yet. (Sad that I know this.) it’s also mapped alpha/grid fleece: alpha in the chest/hood and grid fleece on arms/underarms and maybe back? Something like that.

It’s from Outdoor Vitals, they were prototyping/testing I believe.

I’m looking for a lighter replacement for my OG ambient and found this. I’m not wanting a hood and don’t care about weather resistance because I always wear it under my evo. I’m thinking this naked active evolve at 95gr might do the trick ! It’s crazy light compared to the OG ambient.
Wanted to provide an initial reaction to this piece. Size Large weighs in at 6.8 oz, is very comfortable, packs into a tiny internal pocket, and has kept me warm with temps in the 30s chasing around a crazy toddler haha.

Thanks! I am going to grab one if/when they go on sale.
