OCTA INSULATION

"Zero-Gravity Insulation"

Design Inspiration

The OCTA® structure mimics the architecture of an octopus’s tentacle system — flexible, dynamic, and complex. This isn’t just a visual analogy: the tentacle-inspired radial grid structure helps regulate heat and moisture.

Structure
  • 8-way radial fiber stack: Polyester fibers are arranged like spokes around a hollow center, reducing weight and increasing airflow.
  • Touchpoints + Air Pockets: The network of tiny air pockets retains warmth, while fast-wicking contact points rapidly move sweat and humidity away from the body.
Performance Benefits
  • 50% lighter than traditional fleece.
  • Enhanced moisture management.
  • Quick-drying and thermally efficient.
  • Dry-air cushioning provides next-to-skin comfort

In essence, OCTA® insulation blends biomimicry, thermal engineering, and material science into a lightweight, high-function textile ideal for demanding environments.

The Go Anywhere Do Anything Layer!

"The perfect soft shell light insulation for high output activities. Insulation only where it matters, minimalist design to keep it simple. Perfect for moving fast in the alpine."

Not what I wanted but glad I have it

I actually ordered the wrong thing. But I was too excited to get something new from Beringia to send it back. The first time I put it on I thought it was weird. Now I take the damn thing everywhere I go - on the bike, on the flight somewhere, sitting on the front steps drinking wine…I love it. And I can scrunch it up into a little ball and hide it wherever I want.

MY FAV BERINGIA ALL SZN PIECE

I kid you not I own 2 from previous season and 2 of this new seasons. I wear the Octa Anorak spring touring, trail running, mountain biking, rock climbing, hiking and just casually around town. It genuinely is the best all season training piece and amazing for the cooler spring days! The targeted insulation drys quickly and I have never had an issue with over heating. I am 5ft 7in and wear an XS-S in the Octa just depends on if you like it more fitted or looser.

Excellent

5’-6” 145lbs, got a small and it fits great. Perfect for cool weather runs and warm skate skis. Just enough wind break and insulation with the front-facing fleece lining.

Exceptional Versatility

Another part of the Beringia quiver I keep reaching for. It’s an athletic fit, I ended up with a XL at 6’2 and very thin. The lofty fleece along the chest, shoulders, and arms along with the centered chest pocket allows for very agreeable drape while active. It packs down remarkably well and I bring it every time I question the need for an extra layer.
