Centile Hoody

Inselberg Centile Hoody: warmth for high-altitude climbing

Stay warm without giving up freedom of movement on cold mountain routes. The Inselberg Centile Hoody is an insulated mountaineering jacket built for high-altitude climbing, combining PrimaLoft Gold Insulation with Cross Core technology, body-mapped warmth and a wind-resistant face fabric.

Tested on Mount Everest with CTSS guides during summit rotations, the Centile is designed for sustained cold and wind while moving at altitude. From technical climbing to extended alpine objectives, it keeps warmth focused around your core without excessive bulk through your arms and shoulders.

Mountain-focused features and benefits

• PrimaLoft Gold Insulation with Cross Core technology: provides warmth-to-weight performance, with a fibre structure designed to maintain loft and warmth when compressed or wet.
• Body-mapped insulation: higher insulation density in the core and hood helps retain warmth, while reduced insulation through the arms and shoulders supports technical movement.
• Strategic coverage: insulation placement helps minimise cold spots without unnecessary bulk.
• Wind-resistant face fabric: helps reduce the chilling effect of wind on exposed routes.
• Abrasion-resistant construction: designed to handle contact with rock, ice tools and harness friction without a stiff feel.
• Packable layering: works beneath a hardshell in extreme conditions or as an outer layer in dry, cold weather.

For high-altitude mountaineering and alpine climbing

Reach for the Centile when cold, high environments call for greater insulation while you keep moving. Its balance of core warmth and arm mobility suits technical mountain routes where your layering needs to work with you, not restrict you.

Choose the right layer for the conditions

Centile or Infima?
The Centile prioritises greater warmth for colder, higher environments. The Infima focuses on breathability and temperature regulation for continuous, high-output movement on approaches and varied alpine terrain at lower elevations. They fill different roles in your layering system.

Is it a static belay jacket?
No. The Centile is an active insulation layer for high-altitude climbing. For extended stationary belays in freezing conditions, the Prism Belay Jacket uses higher-loft Climashield Apex continuous filament insulation designed for that role.

Can it go under a shell?
Yes. Wear it as a mid-layer beneath a hardshell in extreme conditions, or on its own as an outer layer in dry, cold environments.

Fit and sizing

Choose your normal size. INSELBERG patterns each piece for its intended mountain use: active layers sit closer to reduce bulk, while pieces designed to go over insulation already include room for those layers. There is no need to size up simply to accommodate the intended layering system.
