This highly breathable wind proof suit is brilliant on any expedition, whatever the altitude, unless it is likely to be really wet. Pertex is so much more breathable than any waterproof fabric so you can block out snow, ice and wind, without getting steamed up (whih is what waterproof shells do resulting in chilling when you stop moving).
Made from Pertex® Classic (what was called Pertex® 6) it provides maximum breathability with complete wind protection. Designed to be worn over the Expedition Salopettes and Jacket; it is cut slightly larger to accommodate this and is sized accordingly. However it can also be used over standard clothing like Powerstrech tights and fleece tops for alpine type expeditions.
- Fixed double layer hood with volume adjuster and stiffened peak.
- High fleece lined collar.
- Four pockets for storage, two zipped and two Velcro sealed.
- YKK zips with multiple pullers that run from ankle to waist to aid ventilation and access.
- Storm flaps over zips.
NB NOT waterproof.
We don't usually keep these in stock but they are generally readily available to order.
