Carinthia HIG 5.0 Jacket – Olive

High-Performance Cold-Weather Protection Down to -20°C

The Carinthia HIG 5.0 Jacket in Olive is a high-insulation cold-weather jacket designed for demanding military, tactical, and outdoor applications in extreme conditions.

As part of Carinthia's latest 5.0 Military Series, the HIG 5.0 bridges the gap between highly dynamic insulation jackets and extreme cold-weather protection. Its advanced G-LOFT® SI insulation with ISO Mapping® Technology provides substantial thermal protection while the integrated ventilation system allows you to regulate body temperature during periods of increased activity.

Designed for wet and cold conditions down to approximately -20°C, the HIG 5.0 is built for users who need dependable warmth during prolonged exposure to harsh weather.

• Designed for Temperatures Down to -20°C: Built for demanding wet and cold environments.

Advanced G-LOFT® SI Insulation

The HIG 5.0 is built around G-LOFT® SI, Carinthia's high-performance synthetic insulation technology.

The jacket uses different insulation weights throughout the garment to provide the required level of protection while maintaining practical mobility:

• Body: 145 g/m² G-LOFT® SI
• Sleeves: 110 g/m² G-LOFT® SI

Combined with ISO Mapping® Technology, the insulation is strategically distributed throughout the jacket to provide effective thermal protection where it matters most.

This makes the HIG 5.0 particularly well suited to prolonged exposure to cold and wet environments.

Built for Extreme Cold

The HIG 5.0 is designed for conditions where standard insulated jackets are no longer enough.

With its high level of insulation and weather-resistant construction, it is intended for cold-weather operations where users may spend extended periods outdoors, including periods of lower physical activity.

The jacket is optimised for wet and cold conditions down to approximately -20°C, making it an excellent choice for winter military operations, alpine environments, expeditions, and demanding outdoor work.

Pit Zips for Active Temperature Regulation

One of the key improvements of the HIG 5.0 is its integrated pit zip ventilation system.

When activity levels increase, body heat can build up quickly even in extremely cold weather. The underarm ventilation openings allow excess heat to escape without requiring you to completely open the front of the jacket.

This makes the HIG 5.0 more versatile across changing activity levels — from periods of movement to static observation and rest.

Protective & Adjustable Hood

The integrated hood provides additional protection when weather conditions deteriorate.

It can be adjusted in three directions to create a secure fit around the head while maintaining visibility. When not required, the hood can be conveniently stored inside the collar.

Combined with the adjustable hem and redesigned sleeve cuffs, the HIG 5.0 can be adapted to help minimise heat loss.

Functional Tactical Storage

The HIG 5.0 provides extensive storage for essential equipment.

The jacket features:

• Two large fleece-lined outer pockets
• Optimised internal mesh pockets
• One internal Napoleon pocket
• Three arm pockets
• Three Velcro attachment areas

This combination makes it easy to keep essential items organised and accessible while operating in cold-weather environments.

Designed for Military & Professional Use

The HIG 5.0 was developed as part of Carinthia's latest generation of military cold-weather clothing.

Its combination of high insulation, ventilation, functional storage, weather protection, and packability makes it suitable for military personnel, law enforcement, security professionals, winter expedition teams, and serious outdoor users.

The Olive colour provides a classic military appearance and integrates naturally with field clothing and equipment.
