Outdoorkit adds new Mountain Equipment Down Jackets

Oct. 8, 2009 - PRLog -- The Men's Annapurna has been around for more than 35 years and has been used in hundreds of expeditions - remaining firmly established as our premier off the shelf jacket for exploration of the greater ranges and polar regions. Made from Drilite Loft, the jacket is completely windproof and highly water resistant. It also offers full protection in all but driving rain. Weighing around 420g, it is made of 90% pure down offering a 600 fill power. The cleverly placed  synthentic wadding on the shoulders withstands the compress action of rucksake shoulder straps. A full box wall construction throughout the jacket ensures an even spread of down for total insulation, eliminating all cold spots. The excellent cut of the jacket incorporates articulated elbows and a drop tail giving the wearer maximum freedom of movement and protection. A variety of pockets are included - 2 fleece lined lower pockets with slim reversed zips for increased protection from the weather, and 2 large external chest pockets which allows entry to stored items without having to release any valuable built up heat. The jacket also comes with a built in internal mesh water holder to prevent your water supply from freezing up. It also benefits from adjustable cuffs so you can fit it perfectly with your own wrists. It comes with a stuff sack so it can be easily packed away when travelling.
