Montane says:
Protecting against biting winter winds, the lightweight Nylon ripstop outer fabric works alongside our APT breathable liner and Primaloft Active Vent insulation to trap vital warmth and manage moisture effectively. Advanced construction techniques such as our REACH articulation and PIVOT2 hood systems allow for unhindered movement and protection, whilst gear compatible pocket configuration ensure adaptability on the mountain.
