Montane Mens Duality Jacket RRP £280

Product Information

Sleeves: These are long enough that I can pull my hands right in when walking glove-less, and good for raising arms when climbing. The GORE-TEX fabrication provides the perfect balance of breathability and protection to bring you a jacket that will perform over and over again. Time and time again Gore-tex shows us that it’s one of the most reliable waterproof technologies on the market.

Take your actual body measurements as they are more accurate than measuring over your clothes or shoes. The jacket is also insulated with PrimaLoft Silver insulation, which offers exceptional warmth and loft without adding bulk. Combining durable, high-performance Gore-Tex waterproof fabric alongside highly efficient, lightweight Primaloft Silver insulation, this shell jacket provides guaranteed waterproof protection and essential warmth on cold adventures in the mountains.The insulation is very comfortable and effective, and the gore tex waterproofing keeps you completely dry as you would expect. Now we'd really stopped moving the limitations of this lightweight jacket were immediately obvious; I added a mid weight fleece under it and a waterproof jacket on top, for the hour or two of milling about before retreating to the sleeping bag. Gore's legendary "Guaranteed to Keep You Dry" and their exceptionally rigorous lab testing means that Gore-Tex fabrics can be relied on no matter how foul the weather is.

The whole lot cost less than a swanky Goretex jacket, and apart from the cheapy Millets jacket will last for donks without worrying about reproofing issues. So as an insulating/waterproof jacket, it's designed to fit pretty snug and close to your body but has enough wiggle room under it for an extra layer on those really chilly days. Once we have received your item(s), we will inspect them and usually process a refund within 2 working days. The Montane Duality Jacket is incredible for a versatile and durable waterproof synthetic insulated jacket.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. Incredibly packable and lightweight, the Spirit waterproof jacket is developed with GORE-TEX PACLITE® technology and provides durable waterproof and windproof protection, while keeping weight to a minimum. The jacket is also insulated with PrimaLoft® Silver insulation, which offers exceptional warmth and loft without adding bulk. An extremely durable 80D fabric has been used in key areas across the shoulders, hips, and elbows, providing the most rugged protection where you need it most.

Faults deemed to have been caused by misuse or improper care (including washing not in accordance with the product wash care instructions) are not covered by the guarantee. Where product tags have been removed, even if they have been re-attached, Mountain Kit will not be able to refund the product. Combining a GORE-TEX® outer and PrimaLoft® insulation, this jacket is waterproof, windproof, breathable and comfortable.Also I feel wearing OMM (Rab and Arc’teryx too) around the place while not actually doing outdoor sports is a bit naff.

The Flux went on over a couple of base layers when gearing up, then stayed on for the climb because I'm too lazy to keep changing layers. That may well be because of the light packable materials, especially in the lining, but to me it look cheap and poor quality. 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. 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.We use marketing, analytical and functional cookies as well as similar technologies to give you the best experience. The zip can be worn up when temperature drop to seal in escaping heat or, when temperatures rise it can be worn down to release an intolerable heat build-up. Had it recommended to me by a number of outdoors enthusiasts and the reviews are all pretty positive.
