Extreme Jacket
Montane · £185
Worth being NRY provisional
A kilo of recycled nylon, built for cold and wet and relentless conditions; a working jacket rather than a light one, and the weight is the point. Montane state it plainly: cold, wet, and relentlessly demanding conditions. At £185 it is a fraction of what a technical shell costs and it is doing a different job, keeping you warm and moving rather than bone dry.
