Technical, windproof softshell jacket dedicated to mountaineering. Water-repellent, and enhanced abrasion resistance on the shoulders. Ergonomic and functional stretch build for totally free-flowing moves. Designed for a wide variety of ascents, this stretch, softshell action jacket is built with the ELEMENT SHIELD™ MATRIX 3L laminate. The K SHIELD HOODIE puts breathability and mobility first, as well as total wind resistance. You stay dry, whatever your exertion level. Durable water repellency and the technical hood absorb weather fluctuations for multi-season comfort with no in-action restrictions. The jacket's fabric is also very abrasion resistant. On the shoulders, super-rugged TOUGHTEX™ reinforcements protect the areas most vulnerable to stresses and rubbing. The functional ergonomics are compatible with backpack and harness. The ideal solution for committing mountaineering trips.
