Advantages
Breathability
The material has optimum breathability, meaning that moisture is effectively wicked away to the outer layers, leaving the fabric dry and comfortable regardless of the intensity of your activity.
Windproof
The materials used to make this jacket have been carefully selected to be able to guarantee protection from inclement weather. This model fully protects you from the wind, allowing you to trek whatever the weather conditions.
Hydrophobicity
The jacket is designed to protect the wearer from adverse conditions. The fabric has hydrophobic properties, providing protection against rain as it effectively repels water molecules.
Compactness
The jacket has been designed to protect you from inclement weather while keeping the product small. This has made it fit into a rucksack, so you can take it with you anywhere in the event of a sudden change in the weather.
Synthetic filling
A synthetic filling is used in this model to ensure optimum warmth. The synthetic fibres already start to warm the wearer after a while and are anti-allergenic and easy to maintain.
Helmet-compatible hood
The hood protects against bad weather conditions, but in mountain conditions impact protection is often still needed. The hood offers the possibility to use it in combination with a helmet.
DWR
The DWR coating makes the fabric water repellent, so that water forms droplets on its surface and runs off instead of soaking in. This protects the fabric from getting wet quickly, providing greater comfort in wet conditions, but does not guarantee full water repellency.
Pertex® Quantum
Lightweight (30g/m2), pleasant to the touch and highly durable face fabric. Constructed from thin, dense weaves so that it insulates effectively. It is windproof and - thanks to a DWR coating - provides additional protection against inclement weather.
YKK®
Designation of the reliable zippers of the Japanese brand YKK®, used in high-end sportswear and accessories.
PrimaLoft® Gold Insulation Active+
A technologically advanced insulating material from the PrimaLoft® Gold range. Dedicated to demanding sporting activities, it is characterised by high breathability and exceptional stretch without compromising insulation properties. It is made from 55% recycled material.
JacekExcellent !
Compared to the Arcterix, the Atom LT is more comfortable.
It's lightweight and seems very thin, but the application of insulation works unbelievably well. It keeps you warm against your body from the moment you put it on, but it also wicks away moisture immediately, so you won't be freezing or sweaty, which is essential when active.
