Posted by Joel Brennan on Jun 06, 2022
I’ve used both the
20Litre and the 28Litre versions of Montane’s Trailblazer LT ultralight rucksacks and I am very impressed,

and are remarkably comfortable thanks to the vest-pack type harness and
generous hip fins.

Zermatt in Switzerland, it was 20 degrees but I didn’t overheat and felt

Prism Insulated Jacket - TRAIL MAGAZINE: Excellent and fairly priced
Posted by Trail Magazine on May 04, 2022
The Primaloft-insulated Montane Prism strikes a lovely balance between weight, warmth, features and performance. The adjustable, peaked hood is excellent, the dropped hem adds warmth and coverage, and the relaxed fit (neither loose nor athletic) is just right. The 30-denier, windproof Pertex Quantum shell feels tougher than many others too.VERDICTAn excellent and fairly-priced synthetic jacket.

The Montane Alpine Resolve sure packs a punch straight out of bag. Coming in the striking Citrus Green design, it certainly ticks the first box for a winter shell jacket. Bright and bold, it will stand out in contrast to the shorter days and bleak white mountain tops of the winter season.
