THE INCUBATOR Insulator is the most versatile insulator in the Strafe line-up and has become a trusted partner in the mountains for our athletes. We chose to fill the Incubator with Primaloft Gold because this synthetic insulation is incredibly lightweight, fast-drying, and most importantly, the warmth-to-weight ratio is hard to beat. It is also super compressible which enables this insulator to pack into its own pocket. The Incubator performs great as summit insulation, a warmer midlayer on very cold days, or if you're like us, you'll wear it around town from October to May.

On the summit of a 14'er in the winter, my skinny *** gets cold if I stop moving. I need the security of a super warm puffy that doesnt weigh me down on the climb. The incubator lives in my touring kit, on me for every storm, and out to dinner in town. We live in a cold place and this layer does it all.
I picked out an the Incubator because I needed a warm insulation layer for skiing and I was looking for something more durable than the ultra light jackets because I always ruin those sitting next to a camp fire in the summer. This has a little more insulation than most but still packs down into the hand pocket like a little pillow so I feel fine ust tossing it in the pack all year round.
This lightweight puffy jacket is absolutely crucial to my kit. So light and packable you’ll never think of not bringing it. If you don’t own one of these already it should be your next purchase, it will change your game!
