The Mens Incinerator combines down and primaloft to make a truly superb jacket. The Incinerator comprises of an elasticated box baffled down inner lining, made from both 90/10 goose down and primaloft sport synthetic insulation – extreme warmth, living up to its ‘duvet’ name. This fill makes up 60grams of the overall composition, and then it is topped off with a Pertex Endurance outer. Pertex Endurance technology uses an ultra thin monolithic membrane, applied to a nylon face, then treated with a durable water repellent finish - this technology works by taking the water vapour produced by the body and diffusing it freely to the outside world. At the same time, any light rain or snow cannot penetrate and reach inside the shell, creating a brilliantly insulated jacket. The jacket has two zipped handwarmer pockets and two internal pockets, ensuring your hands never go cold and that you can store those vital accessories needed when out and about. To finish off, the lining is Pertex Microlight, made from tightly woven nylon yarns with a durable water repellent finish - downproof and easily packable.

The Combust Jacket is the heavyweight alternative to the Ignite Jacket and also proves to be a great alternative to down. Ideal for use in wetter conditions, it has a lightweight denier nylon outer shell fabric which has been reinforced to give it great tear strength, making it as durable as possible. The shell has a thin PU coating giving it excellent breathability, making it able to withstand wind, light showers and still keeping moisture out over extended periods of time. The outer shell of the jacket is treated with a DWR finish, making it durable to even extensive home laundering. The jacket is filled with Primaloft PL1 - a unique microfibre insulation which resembles the physical and thermal properties of down, creating a lightweight and extremely compressible item of clothing which is incredibly comfortable to wear and easy to pack away and travel with. The Primaloft fabric has the ability to keep you drier and warmer than down and other synthetic fabrics. Lightweight polyester fabric makes up the lining - treated with a water repellent finish, moisture is prevented from finding its way inside the jacket. The Men’s combust jacket also comes with a water bottle pocket and an elasticated inner back to elimainate cold spots.
