MONTANE Trailblazer Stretch jacket Shadow Man, M

This stretch rain shell is a formidable piece of mountain clothing. The fabric, AQUAPRO Dynamic, not only has a remarkable four way stretch, but also possesses a unique system of liquid and vapour perspiration management that increases in performance during high exertion. Designed for year round mountain trail use, from backpacking to trail running. Features: CONSTRUCTION: - AQUAPRO Dynamic waterproof fabric is both breathable and features a hyper four way stretch - AQUAPRO Dynamic is a bi-component waterproof laminate fabric with a membrane that is both hydrophobic and hydrophilic; under normal use it breathes through hydrophobic transpiration but during high exertion and upon reaching a critical level of internal humidity the fabric has an extra turbo boost of hydrophilic breathability that draws vapour perspiration through to the outside of the garment - Pattern matched stretch 15mm taped seams throughout - 12 – 13 stitch count on all seams versus a typical industry average of 8, creating a tight, clean and strong seam - 3mm seam allowance on all seams, reducing weight and bulk under the micro-tape and creating a smooth, strong seam PATTERNING AND DESIGN: - Technical tailoring to prevent arm lift raising the lower hem whilst reaching high - Articulated arms with engineered tailoring to prevent seams constricting over elbows and biceps TECHNICAL HOOD: - Fully adjustable ‘trail hood’ with three points of adjustment designed to fit over warm headwear - Hood visor stiffened with a wire on the lip and a foam insert for extra durability - Internal elastic loop combined with hook on rear hood compression drawcord allows hood to be rolled down and stowed away whilst not in use in windy conditions - Bonded and stitched hood channels for extra strength - Single hand adjustable elasticated face aperture with ‘floating’ cordlocks and internal cord exit for simplicity and improved functionality POCKET CONFIGURATION: - Two deep A-line pockets with YKK matte AquaGuard zips positioned well clear of backpack harness belt - External pockets feature shaped zip garages to prevent further weather entry - Pocket zips feature easy grab pulls for use with gloves or mitts - Pockets are mesh lined for additional ventilation CENTRE FRONT ZIP: - Full length YKK matte AquaGuard centre front zip that is highly water resistant - Stretch panel either side of centre front zip allows for greater body movement across torso - Internal storm flap with rain drain edge behind centre front zip COLLAR AND CUFFS: - Bonded brushed fine microfleece on inner collar facings next to mouth and chin - Roll over beardguard prevents YKK zip from contacting the chin or mouth - Shaped cuffs with adjustable hook and loop tabs for ease of use with gloves or mitts - Rear external MONTANE hang loop LOWER HEM: - Fully adjustable lower hem to prevent weather entry or heat loss - MONTANE single pull ‘penny cordlocks’ create a low profile for comfort under rucksack or climbing harness - VIA reflective logo details Specifications: - Fabric: AQUAPRO Dynamic - Denier: 30D High Gauge Interlock - Zips: YKK matte AquaGuard - Weight (approx.): 334.5g - Fit: Active Mountain Technology: - AQUAPRO Dynamic: 115g/m² 30D high gauge interlock 100% polyester microfibre knit Microporous bi-component laminate Waterproof to a minimum of 10,000mm hydrostatic head and with a hydrophilic MVTR of 6,500g/m²/24hrs (JIS L 1099 B-1) combined with a hydrophobic MVTR of 5,500g/m²/24hrs (JIS L 1099 A-1) DWR with spray rating 80 / 20 (AATCC 22) Excellent four way stretch properties for comfort during dynamic movement Care: - The Trailblazer Stretch Jacket uses AQUAPRO fabric which contains a Durable Water Repellency (DWR) as the first barrier in keeping you dry.
