About this deal

Combining durable, high-performance Gore-Tex waterproof fabric alongside highly efficient, lightweight Primaloft Silver insulation. The waterproof and windproof outer helps trap warm air inside the jacket while the synthetic insulation retains heat and keeps the cold at bay. The three jackets on test here aren't meant to be stand-alone insulation pieces for real arctic cold (minus double digits, say), but are best treated as a lightweight, low-bulk warmth booster to slip over a few other layers. Meanwhile, the Pertex Quantum inner 'is super lightweight and packable and is also slippy to make it easy for pulling on over other garments. This versatile jacket boasts a seamless fusion of fully seam-taped, waterproof Gore-Tex with Gore Performance technology and PrimaLoft insulation.

So ensuring you have a technical waterproof to protect against the heaviest downpours is essential for your comfort.A more breathable UltraSoft fabric is used inside, while ME have reverted to Drilite Loft II for the lining of the hood and inside the bottom hem. Is there some classic Paramo that people mean when they just say “Paramo”, as seems to be often done? Zip: The YKK weather resistant 2-way main zip with anti-snag draft-excluding internal baffle seems less heavy-duty than those on the other two jackets, and this sort of detail may help account for the Generator Alpine's lighter weight.

Inner Fabric: The inner fabric of the Duality is a PEAQ synthetic ECO lining that is supremely comfortable next to skin and is highly breathable. Each jacket has been used on at least a few days out this season, hillwalking, winter climbing and in one case for a bivvy.Summary: Though the three jackets are a similar weight I feel (marginally) warmest and best protected from the elements in the Fitzroy, with its long-ish cut, extra front insulation and robust weather-shedding outer fabric. The three jackets reviewed strike a good balance between warmth, weight and packability, and they can be worn on the go as well as when stationary.

Classic Mountain outer layers are cut slightly larger in the upper body to allow for bulkier winter layering underneath. This is a coated fabric which provides the optimum balance of weatherproofing, breathability and light weight' ME's Duncan Machin tells me.

An excellent waterproof jacket for activities in the mountains including hiking and trekking, where exposure to changeable weather conditions is likely. The Flux shares the same defect as the other two jackets in that there's nothing to secure the drawcord ends and prevent them from occasionally whipping you in the face in a gale.very expensive, but a worthwhile investment for me as I walk around 10k a day with the dog, every day, and have a number of Frahm coats, all worn regularly, and all lasting well. This product as a whole or the individual materials within this product have the following certification(s). A fully waterproof, taped outer shell incorporating synthetic Primaloft Silver insulation to create a toasty warm waterproof shell. I’ve had my buffalo for years (army) as well as a cycling one I got for much cheapness as people were too stupid to realise how brilliant it was… they’ve both had much abuse and still going strong.

I’ve got an Enduro now but briefly had a Helki and before that a Velez smock for years and years and before that I briefly had a Cascada. Personally I'd probably not consider a climbing layer with more than 60g of insulation (I've climbed in my Patagucci Nano Puff a few times and it's been great) and I'd take a 100g jacket as being in light to moderate belay jacket territory so low pockets and huge internal pockets make sense to me.The fully adjustable hood is paired with a stiffened peak for unrestricted vision, and can be rolled away when not in use. Thin/light yet really warm, being a ski style it has extra length which I like as it keeps me dryer.
