M's Bouncer Jacket
Description
What makes it special?
Men’s Bouncer Jacket is the Houdini interpretation of an extra everything expedition style insulation jacket. Maximum warmth at minimum weight, that’s the basic idea, but The Houdini design team has put a massive effort into the little details that makes the garment feel better to wear: The stretchy, smooth and silent fabric, the heat barriers at all exposure points, the exquisite Primaloft® Rise padding. It also follows the top standard for Houdini sustainability: Recycled and recyclable, PFAS-free and made without stealing the feathers off any birds.
How does it work?
The key feature of Men's Bouncer Jacket is the high grade of insulation and the low weight. This is made possible by the all-new padding Primaloft® Black Insulation Rise, a state-of-the-art synthetic padding featuring a completely new structure that allows us to build more loft than ever before. And more fluff means more warmth. It is also made from 80% recycled contents and is fully recyclable. We use synthetic padding from Primaloft® because of the performance benefits, but also because we don’t believe in keeping birds for their feathers. Keeping living beings caged up so that we can roam the great outdoors simply feels wrong. Especially when modern technology does the job better. Men's Bouncer Jacket is made of two fabrics: Surpass 2.5 Hardshell and Spinner Ripstop. The waterproof shell fabric over your chest, head and shoulders. The light, highly breathable ripstop over your back and stomach. This creates the perfect balance between weather protection and inner microclimate.
What should I use it for?
Men's Bouncer Jacket is made to keep you warm when the winds blow and temperature drops well below freezing. The durable construction in combination with the lightweight warmth and weather protection is designed for demanding adventures and high alpine environments. Climbing expeditions, alpine skiing and long, weather exposed winter days.
This garment is recyclable and we kindly ask you to return it to Houdini at the end of its lifetime. We can use the materials to create new products, eliminate waste and save our planet’s precious resources. Houdini recycling units can be found in all Houdini stores and at many retailers.

Care advice
Lined synthetic garments
Our lined garments consist of an outer fabric and an inner fabric, with insulating synthetic lining from Primaloft in between. There are many advantages to using Primaloft's synthetic lining, including not having to tumble dry the garment with balls to puff it up after washing. It dries faster than down and does not smell when wet.
- Air clothes instead of washing if the clothes are not too dirty. You save water, energy and make clothes last longer.
- Use a laundry bag. It is important when you wash synthetic clothes as it protects your garments and prevents microfibers from leaking out. When cleaning the bag and filter in the machine, make sure to wipe clean and dispose of lint in the bin. Never rinse the laundry bag with water as the fibers can then end up in lakes and oceans.
- Wash at a maximum of 40 degrees.
- Wash with mild environmentally certified detergents and be sure to use the correct dosage.
- Avoid fabric softener. In addition to being bad for the environment, it impairs the garment's performance, especially moisture transport and drying time.
- Hang dry, but add heat to the garment after washing so that the water-repellent surface of the outer fabric is reactivated. Use a heating cabinet, tumble dryer or iron, just make sure to keep an eye on the heat so the garment doesn't melt.
sustainability
circular
The label circular means that this product is made from either recycled and recyclable, or renewable and biodegradable materials. Most products in today's society are linear, where the earth's resources are extracted, used and then discarded. This does not work in the long run and causes enormous strain on the environment. Instead, we want to close the circle and reuse the materials we already have. But we need your help. When your Houdini products are completely worn out, return them to us through our recycling units located in all our own stores and many retailers.
recycled
The label recycled means that this garment contains at least 50% recycled fibers (often more, see product description). The source is either recycled clothing or other sources such as PET bottles. We mainly use recycled polyester, which has many advantages. It reduces both CO2 emissions and water use compared to virgin polyester. One of our suppliers shows that mechanically recycled polyester saves 32% CO2 and uses 94% less water. In addition to the footprint of production, the big difference is that we use "waste" as raw material instead of crude oil.
Recyclable
The label Recyclable means that the fabric in this product is completely recyclable. Instead of becoming waste, the material can be used to manufacture new products. Our goal is to take no material from the earth's crust into our products by 2030. Circular products, made from recycled and recyclable materials, is a big change but we need your help to make the system work. Return your Houdini garments to us when they are completely worn out. We have recycling units in all our own stores and at many retailers.
