Patterning & Design

• Using our classic ‘Alpine Fit’ for complete freedom of movement without excess fabric
• The Lhotse is sized on the assumption that at some point you may need to wear a baselayer, lightweight fleece and other mid-layers underneath it, so worn over just a tee-shirt in summer it may feel a little generous. That said, most people find this ‘true to size’ no matter when or with what they use it, but if you are of slight build and intend to wear only thin layers underneath it then you may need to consider dropping down a size
