Ends October 5: 20% off the Ortovox Ravine Metawool 90

If you’ve been searching for a new winter midlayer but waiting for the perfect deal, it’s time to shop. The Ortovox Ravine Metawool 90 checks all of our testers’ boxes, and it’s 20% off on Backcountry. The catch? The deal ends today, October 5—so you’ve got to move quickly to snag the goods.
The Ortovox Ravine Metawool 90 was our 2026 pick for the most sustainable insulated midlayer (its wool is sourced exclusively from sheep living in the German Alps, and the polyester shell is fully recycled), but don’t overlook its stylish design that breaks from the usual muted, earthy tones of outdoor apparel. A striking cobalt, a pastel lilac, a chic white—all the colors are in play for this gorgeous jacket, plus quirky geometric stitching.
“But looks aren’t everything,” our lead tester notes in his review. “The Ravine Metawool 90 is insulated with a merino wool fiber fill blend, which means it stays warm even when wet, and doesn’t stink even after a season of sweat.” In fact, the midlayer was one of the warmest we tested, even on backcountry slopes during five-degree temps. A roomy freeride cut makes it easy to layer and fits a wide range of shapes and sizes. It’s also wildly weather-resistant, with a durable shell, a large hood, and a DWR finish.
