Omni-Heat Infinity: Columbia Evolves their Thermal-Reflective Tech

Columbia’s Omni-Heat Infinity is the latest thermal-reflective technology released across their fall-winter lineup. That dazzling flash of gold on the interior of their new outerwear and select footwear reflects your precious body heat back to you instantly, delivering constant radiant warmth.

It’s a technology built on many years of innovation and a concept inspired by NASA, who pioneered heat-reflective technology beginning in the 1960s. Today, Columbia’s new gold liner mixes large dots in with small, allowing them to cover a greater surface area with the reflective foil—keeping you warmer.

And it gets better. Since the foil dots are placed in a discontinuous pattern, porous material in the tiny spaces between the dots allows your body to breathe while it simultaneously warms up.

If you place your hand next to the lining, you can feel the heat reflecting back. It’s that instantaneous.

The technology is explained in the video below.

 As well as appearing in adult jackets like the Men’s Labyrinth Loop™ Omni-Heat™ Infinity Insulated Hooded Jacket and the Women’s Little Si™ Omni-Heat™ Infinity Insulated Parka, the technology is also available in children’s pieces, two of which we tried out recently.

Girls’ Mighty Mogul™ II Omni-Heat™ Infinity Insulated Jacket

Girls will stay comfy long-term in this jacket thanks to synthetic insulation that will perform in intense cold, with waterproof-breathable tech ready for variable slopes, frigid toboggan runs or slushy playgrounds.

The helmet-compatible hood (fleece-lined, very deep) and powder skirt are resort-ready, and the geometric print (Bright Geranium Smorgas Berg – ha!) will really stand out on dull days or while night-shredding.

Plus: Columbia’s Outgrown system lets you extend the cuffs next season.

  • Omni-Tech™ waterproof/breathable critically seam sealed
  • Omni-Heat™ Infinity advanced thermal reflective
  • OUTGROWN™ grow system
  • Insulated, 150gsm
  • Attached, adjustable hood
  • Helmet compatible hood

Kids’ Powder Turner™ Omni-Heat™ Infinity Insulated Suspender Pants

These waterproof, insulated pants with Omni-Heat Infinity lining stand up to a day of cold, hard shredding or a sloppy snowman-building session.

Adjustable, stretchy suspenders keep pants well in place. And as with the Jacket, the Outgrown system lets you extend the cuffs next season. And an adjustable waist and straps let you tailor the fit further. We haven’t seen a kids’ snow pant lighter, warmer or more weatherproof than this.

Reel Rock 16 is coming to #Squamish! There are two showings 👉 May 20th and June 1st at the Eagle Eye Theatre, Howe Sound Secondary School, in beautiful Squamish supported by @climbonsquamish! #Linkinbio to get your tickets! #climbing #film #filmfest #climbers #adventure #climbon #adventure #squamishbc #tickets
Finding that picture perfect moment with @sweenyj #mountainlifer
The winter that just keeps on given-er! 🤘#mountainlifer
FRIDAY FLICK 💥 This past March, speed mountaineer Benedikt Böhm @benediktboehm rocked a five-hour sea-to-summit expedition up Mount Parnassus in central Greece. Starting at sea level on his road bike at the village of Itea on the Gulf of Corinth, he climbed up to an altitude of 2.414 metres. #linkinbio to watch the film!
I had no idea what to expect from this trip, neither from bikepacking, a fancy term for cycle touring and a sport I’d never done before, nor from Kyrgyzstan, a country most people cannot find on a map. Carl, who I’d only just met recently after moving to Canada—I’d flagged him down after backcountry skiing after seeing his Montana license plate—had invited me on this trip while on a mountain bike ride. I said no. A few weeks later I figured, “Why not?”
The @rab.equipment  dynamic Cirrus Flex is a soft, lightweight hybrid synthetic insulation for mountain-friendly layering. Keeping you warm and perfectly suited to journey in the mountains. #TheMountainPeople #WeAreRab
"@normhann and I lashed paddleboards to the roof of his truck and headed north along the Island Highway, towards Telegraph Cove. Norm had invited me to tag along on a commercial paddleboard group he would be guiding in the Broughton Archipelago. Despite a long history of SUP expeditions, I harboured some reservations."
To date, more than 6,000 people have summitted Everest, the highest point on Earth at 8,848.86 metres of elevation above sea level. And only a tiny handful of those climbers have been Black.
Happy Mother’s Day to all the rad moms out there! Here’s our Art Director & Head Designer @calypsodesign getting cozy with some sharks. #mountainlifer #mothersday
