Balance 3 layer 20k 25k waterproof jacket

The new Balance is our definitive fully-featured, durable waterproof for all your outdoor activities. What's special about this jacket is it's highly breathable waterproof fabric and active cut, it's for moving fast and working hard. Active alpine cut moves with you and works with rucksacks and harnesses Fully adjustable hood, hem and deep pockets with mesh ventilation 3-layer waterproof with 20,000mm HH and 25,000g/m2/day MVTR DWR fabric that's free from PFCs World class fabric: waterproof, breathable, durable Check out how the breathability (25,000g/m2/day MVTR) and waterproof capability (20,000mm HH) of our fabrics compares with other brands and you will see just how good our fabrics are. Creating the perfect active waterproof starts with choosing the right materials. It took 18 months of work with the best Japanese mills to develop a fabric that is made for movement and class-leading performance. The result is a jacket with a forget-its-there feel; that keeps you dry and protected for longer on high-intensity days in the mountains. Mountain sports cross-over The tough ripstop nylon outer is designed for rough use, its in-built stretch reducing the likelihood of snags and tears. And for the backing fabric weve used a polyester knit that feels more comfortable against bare skin. This 3-layer material has a hydrostatic head of 20K and a moisture vapour transfer rate of 25K and is treated with a DWR that is completely free from PFC's. Helmet Covering Hood A fully adjustable hood with stiffened peak lets you batten down the hatches when the weather turns - compatible with a helmet for multipitch routes or on the bike. The deep map-sized A-line pockets are set high to maintain access over your rucksack waist strap or harness, with internal mesh panels that let you dump heat quickly when moving fast and working hard. Active Cut The streamlined active cut with subtle stretch fits neatly over your layers without excess fabric to flap around in strong winds and a slight dropped rear hem keeps your bum dry for longer against sideways rain. Adjustable cuffs and a hem drawcord complete the set.
