ORTOVOX CLOTHING

Ortovox For safety and merino clothing in the mountains

Ortovox is known for avalanche safety equipment and merino clothing that performs reliably on ski tours and in open terrain. For decades, the brand has relied on a combination of alpine experience and natural materials rather than pure synthetics. Ortovox, in particular, enjoys a high level of trust among mountaineers when it comes to avalanche airbags and avalanche transceivers. At the same time, the brand has made a name for itself as a pioneer in sustainable merino clothing. At Ortovox, you can find a product line that combines safety and environmental awareness.

With avalanche airbag
ORTOVOX BACKPACKS

From merino jackets to touring backpacks

From warm Ortovox ski jackets made of merino wool to rugged hiking backpacks for the tour: At Ortovox, alpine expertise meets sustainable materials. A prime example is the Ortovox DownWool 270 Jacket, which combines down with merino wool to provide reliable warmth even in damp, cold conditions. The merino fibers also regulate temperature and are naturally odor-resistant, even after several days of use. This natural climate regulation really pays off, especially in changeable mountain weather. It ensures you’re equally well-equipped for both ascents and descents.
