PIKA: the lightweight recycled polycotton sweater for hiking and city life

Some pieces are easy to throw on without a second thought, early in the morning before heading out for a walk, on a sailboat deck when the breeze picks up, or simply to get across town. PIKA is one of them: a lightweight sweater, weighing 250 g, knitted in a polycotton fabric that keeps you warm without weighing you down.

Recycled polycotton knit that keeps you warm

The blend of 55% recycled polyester and 42% recycled cotton creates a knit that retains body heat while still feeling comfortable against the skin. Cotton adds softness and absorbency, while polyester provides durability and stretch resistance, helping prevent the elbows from going baggy after a season.

Details designed to last

Round neck, ribbed cuffs and hem so the knit regains its shape after every wash, and subtle embroidery over the heart. Nothing superfluous, just what you need in a piece you’ll keep for a long time.

PERFORMANCES

Fine knit, 55% recycled polyester, 42% recycled cotton, undyed

A fine knit of cotton and recycled polyester, for a mid-season sweater

The PIKA is a deliberately lightweight sweater, designed for days when a fleece would be too much but a T-shirt is no longer enough: it weighs 250 g in size M. Its fine knit combines 55% recycled polyester and 42% recycled cotton, made from production scraps and used clothing, so it requires no new crops or irrigation. The polyester is there for a reason: it provides the durability that recycled cotton fiber lacks, as it is shorter than virgin fiber. The fibers are sorted by color before spinning, eliminating the need for dyeing. The yarn is made in Spain, the sweater is knitted and assembled in Italy, and the ribbed cuffs and hem help it keep its shape over time.

PIKA, the second layer in the Lagoped layering system

Did you know? The ptarmigan, our totem animal, changes its plumage with the seasons: it turns white in winter to blend into the snow and fluffs up its feathers to trap warm air against its body. It constantly adjusts its protection, never wearing more than necessary.

PIKA follows the same logic: it’s a mid-layer, the second layer, which stores the heat produced by the body. It’s worn over a technical base layer close to the skin that wicks away moisture, and under a waterproof, windproof outer layer when the weather turns. In mild weather or when it’s dry, it works on its own and can be worn directly over a T-shirt.

Fit & support

Regular fit PIKA: a men's sweater to wear on its own or under a jacket

PIKA has a regular fit, neither tight nor loose, in a men's style that hangs straight without hugging the silhouette. The shoulders stay unrestricted and the arms free, so you can swing your arms while walking or maneuver without the sweater riding up.

The ribbing at the cuffs and hem is there for a reason: it keeps the knit in place as you move and blocks cold air from getting in without feeling tight. This fit leaves enough room to wear a T-shirt or a technical base layer underneath, while remaining neat enough to fit under a waterproof jacket without bunching at the armholes. Whether worn on its own in mild weather or as part of a layering system in the mountains, it keeps the same drape.

Coupe Regular

Coupe intermédiaire à travers le buste, avec assez d'aisance pour superposer une couche technique en dessous sans compression. Les manches gardent une bonne liberté de mouvement pour les activités outdoor du quotidien, de la randonnée aux sorties en montagne.
