Take to the mountains with the Spirit West Essential Jacket, a member of our flagship Essential series of lightweight, packable, ultra-functional layering systems designed to get you out there.  

We’re proud to feature a combination of ancient and cutting edge technologies in our Essential Jackets.  Wool is nature’s supermaterial, and we proudly use Ramtect® Merino Wool to insulate all of our jackets for its superior moisture wicking, breathability, heat retention, and lightweightness. In almost every technical aspect, wool is able to outperform almost any technical or natural insulator on the market.

Each of our Essential products is craft manufactured in our Calgary facility, specifically for you.  Not only can we achieve a perfect fit, but we can add all the bells and whistles to ensure you get your dream jacket. 

Need the pockets higher to accommodate a climbing harness? We got you. 

Can’t get enough of purple? Let’s make it all purple. 

Hips never fit on regular womens’  jackets? Let’s make it made-to-measure. 

These are some of the reasons customers keep coming back for the Essential Jacket.
