Cutting-edge alpine routes require not only all-out contortionist freeclimbing but also the timeless ability to boogie to easier ground and weather a storm. Thanks to stretch, better breathability and great protection, this lightweight soft shell has everything essential and nothing more. The windproof, highly water-resistant fabric yields a trim fit, great comfort and superb mobility. The three-way adjustable hood, with volume control, fits snugly without compromise or flapping. Other technical features include a radius-cut bottom hem for mobility, a removable crotch strap and nonbulky cuffs. The main front zipper (with Deluge'· DWR) is waterresistant, and the mesh torso pockets open long for venting and storage. Imported.
