Morphosis means change, evolution, and adaptation. The Morphosis jacket is designed to be comfortable whatever your activity, temperature, or effort level.
- Highly breathable, wind resistant and water shedding outer fabric
- Zones of grid fleece around the core and arms for insulation
- Fleece-free panels under the arms/sides to dump heat and moisture
When a windshell is too sweaty and a fleece won’t cut out the wind on its own, that’s where the Morphosis comes into its own. The outer fabric is more breathable than a completely windproof shell, allowing 6 CFM of airflow - just about noticeable in the strongest of winds while sacrificing little protection.
..Read moreZones of gridded fleece around the core leaves your under-arms and the side panels uninsulated, letting you dump heat when working hard, without losing wind protection. A full-length zip offers extra venting capability, should you need it.
The Morphosis can be worn over a base layer in warmer temperatures and high output activities like trail running, or layered over a fleece for colder conditions and slower work rates.
With it's super light softshell-like construction, the Morphosis provides all the freedom of movement you need for climbing, hill-walking and riding.

While the Morphosis is intended as a multisport jacket, Alpkit has still managed to put the insulation in just the right place when you’re stretched out with your hands on the bars.
I like the Morphosis, it’s warm without being sweaty and gives you decent protection against the elements. At £80 it’s just amazing value too.

Great value all year round jacket that will keep you warm and won’t hamper any activity

Simple, effective and great value, the Morphosis is classic Alpkit.

An excellent softshell at a price it's hard to argue with, the Morphosis is a versatile layer for all manner of spring/summer/autumn activities.
