Men's Lightweight Hybrid Fleece Jacket
Asger returns - sharper, lighter, and more refined. Named after the Old Norse “God’s spear,” it carries the same precision and resilience into a new generation.
Powered by Polartec® Alpha® insulation and designed for Special Forces, Asger adapts to shifting intensity-shedding heat when you push, holding it when you pause-removing the need for constant layer changes in hostile conditions. A balance so sharp in our Asger’s DNA, it’s earned the name “the magical jacket.”
This latest evolution is wrapped in a 40gsm recycled polyester double-ripstop shell: softer, lighter, and more packable than before, yet no less durable, and still windproof. A PFC-free DWR shrugs off light rain.
The new fit sees improved hood and neck comfort, longer articulated sleeves for reach, and a more balanced silhouette. A close-fitting, refined under-helmet hood with a newly added peak and aperture adjusters sharpens coverage. Concealed hand pockets, a new chest pocket, fleece - lined warmth, and glove-compatible details complete a minimalist silhouette without losing function.
At 288g, it vanishes in the pack yet delivers when conditions turn. Built for climbing, ski touring, and high-output stop-start missions, Asger balances warmth in the cold and breathability in the push.
Lighter. Smarter. Sharper. The spear reforged.

Customer Reviews
Absolutely love this jacket. I have worn it throughout spring on cold days, cool windy days, warm days and it just works. I was impressed with its performance in the mountains over the last weekend up in Torridon. A mini expedition over 4 days on Beinn Eighe with mixed weather including some high winds and cool temperatures. The jacket protected me from the cold wind into the night with just a base layer underneath. I wish I had purchased this jacket years ago!! It will accompany me on every mountain trip from here on.
Just what I was looking for light, warm packs down small and looks great 👍
This is the best jacket I have ever owned, I live in it!
I have a old jokul insulated jacket , in a medium that fit brilliant, this new jacket is long on the arms and wide at the bottom, not what I was expecting from the fit previously, other than this the quality is excellent, can't fault it ,really warm for the wight and bulk, brilliant bit of kit.
I was looking for a light windproof jacket to replace an old Rohan fleece. I looked at many different makes before I came across Jottnar and I was impressed by the many good reviews. Needless to say I am very happy with my purchase! My first outing was a walk just above freezing and I could not believe how warm the jacket was. This will definitely be my go to jacket from now on and I am sure it will not be my last purchase!
