The ultralight Murun hoodie from the brand Tilak introduces a new approach to insulation during active movement. It was created for movement without waiting, stopping or dealing with unnecessary things. Thanks to the standalone Alpha Direct material, it offers exceptional breathability, quick drying and noticeable thermal comfort even under high load. It functions as a base layer or as light insulation depending on how other layers are used. It's a solution for those who want to keep temperature under control and gear as light as possible.
Alpha Direct works differently than conventional insulation materials. During movement, it wicks away excess heat and moisture from the body, and when slowing down, it helps maintain thermal comfort. The hoodie responds to the intensity of activity without the need for constant changing. That's why it makes sense for ascents, fast hiking and long transfers in variable weather.
The minimalist approach relies on low weight and simplicity. Murun doesn't replace heavy insulation but expands the possibilities of working with layers. It easily combines with a windbreaker or a light membrane, allowing precise temperature regulation without overheating. It takes up minimal space in a backpack, and you hardly notice it when wearing it.
The material used isn't hidden under an outer fabric, maximizing its ability to breathe. Moisture doesn't get trapped near the body and quickly escapes. Therefore, the hoodie works even during prolonged exertion where conventional insulation layers fail. The result is a more stable microclimate and less need for regulation during movement.
The unique properties of Alpha Direct come with a trade-off in lower mechanical resistance. Murun is not designed for pushing through shrubs or wearing under a heavy backpack without an additional layer. With reasonable handling, it rewards with long lifespan and consistent functional properties. It's a choice for those who know when and how to use it.
Tilak has long relied on technical materials and functional design without unnecessary elements. Murun fits precisely into this philosophy. It was created as a tool for movement in mountains and terrain, where efficiency matters, not showiness. Every detail has its reason, and the whole functions exactly as it should.
