Description

Protects during prolonged rain. The jacket is designed for trail runs and ultras where you may encounter wet and changeable weather for hours. The combination of waterproofing and breathability helps prevent you from getting clammy quickly during exertion.

Ventilates while you keep moving. The underarm ventilation uses your natural arm movement to expel warm air and let in cooler air. Especially during long climbs or when your pace picks up, you will notice that excess heat can escape more effectively.

Practical in cold and wet mountain weather. The hood is designed for protection against rain without completely cutting off airflow, while integrated mittens provide extra coverage for your hands. This makes the jacket suitable for long race days, mountain trails, and fast-changing weather conditions.

Choose this one for serious rain protection during long trails and ultras. For dry training or just some wind, a simpler jacket makes more sense.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a glove or mitt in the jacket?

Yes, the sleeves have integrated flip mitts. In cold or rain you fold them over your hands, then tuck them away again.

Is the jacket really suited for ultras?

It is waterproof up to 30,000 mm and has a hood with ventilation and underarm ventilation. That makes it suitable for long periods of rain, although breathability stays limited with hard effort in warm rain.

How small does the jacket pack down?

The jacket packs into its own chest pocket and fits compactly into your trail vest or pack.

Does the jacket meet the UTMB requirements?

According to Ultimate Direction it does. To be safe, always check the requirements of your own race.

Prima waterdicht jas met verbeterpunten

De jas op zich is een prima waterdichte jas.
Waterdichte functionaliteit is goed.
De aan de mouw vastzittende “wantjes” vind ik niet handig.
De “klep” aan de capuchon is een vervelend ding, zakt steeds over / voor de hoofdlamp tijdens een nachtelijke run.

Dank je voor je goede functionele feedback, dit zijn waardevolle traillessen! We nemen het mee naar Ultimate Direction als tips voor verbetering.

Top Jas!

Deze week aangeschaft op advies van Dirk. Goed kunnen testen deze week met de regen. Droog en goed ademend. Ook een fijne pasvorm met mij lengte van 1.95. Door mijn enthousiasme ook gelijk de broek erbij besteld.

Aanrader prijs kwaliteit

Fijne lichtgewicht regenjas doe voldoet aan de UMTB standaard , jas nu twee keer gedragen en bevalt uitstekend waterdicht en als je shirt draagt met lange mouw blijf je goed droog door ademende jas

Topkwaliteit

Goede pasvorm en doorluchting. Ook de muts is 3 voudig verstelbaar. Alleen de armen zijn aan de lange kant.
