From trail miles to everyday wear, the ultralight Octa® Fleece Light Jacket redefines what a fleece can do. Built with advanced Octa® fleece, it delivers exceptional durability, breathability, and a warmth-to-weight ratio that’s hard to beat, making it just as comfortable around town as it is deep in the backcountry.

Featuring a soft, fluffy interior for outstanding comfort, a full-length zipper for easy layering and precise temperature control, and a collar for added warmth without the bulk of a hood, the Octa® Fleece Light Jacket blends technical performance with everyday versatility.

Zippered hand pockets are perfectly positioned above your backpack belt, keeping essentials secure whether you’re carrying a pack, running errands, or heading out for the evening.

Also available as a half-zip hoody and full-zip hoody version.

  • Our 2.35 oz/sqyd Octa® fleece offers exceptional warmth at an incredibly light weight, making it an advanced alternative to traditional fleece. It excels as an active insulation and performs well in a range of temperatures from the 30F's (0 C) to the upper 60F's (20C) while moving.
  • Octa® filament has an octopus-like cross-section with 8 projections, which create air gaps that enhance heat shielding and insulation properties. That unique fiber structure makes Octa® fabrics roughly 50% lighter than regular polyester materials of similar thickness.
  • The interior of the Octa® features a fluffy next-to-skin, brushed surface that traps air to keep you comfy and warm.
  • Add a Zpacks Wind Shell Jacket to block the breeze and push your layering system into even colder temperatures.
  • Pairs nicely with our Octa Fleece Pants and Octa Fleece Hat as a sleep layer.
  • The mesh exterior is extremely abrasion resistant, providing better durability than other ultralight fleece options. It also doesn't collect crud like other fleece that is fuzzy on the outside.
  • A full-length zipper allows you to easily put the fleece on or off, and regulate your body's temperature as the weather changes.
  • Spacious pockets with hidden zippers keep your hands warm or can be used to store items that you'd like to reach quickly, like gloves. The pocket is positioned to allow easy access while wearing a backpack belt.
  • Flip the collar up to protect your neck on chilly mornings.
  • Integrated thumb holes prevent your sleeves from riding up, keep your hands a little warmer, and provide sun protection for the top of your hands.
  • The sleeves provide excellent range of motion while eliminating a top shoulder seam that could rub against your backpack straps.
  • Elastic at the hem and at the wrists helps trap heat and prevents the jacket from riding up.
  • A gentle dove tail shape on the rear of the jacket helps provide coverage when riding a bike or reaching above your head.
  • Sizes are US Men's, however the athletic fit and stretchy material work well for women's figures as well.
  • The material is stretchy, allowing it to comfortably conform to your body's movements.
  • UPF 40+
  • All Zpacks gear has a two year limited warranty against defects in materials or workmanship. Please see our return / warranty policy.
