Description
It is the softshell of the ALPINE CHALLENGE series. Those who hike in the mountains know, waterproof membranes are often a disadvantage during activity, limiting the escape of perspiration and thus wetting the skin layers. This is why VERTICAL is an intentionally waterproof membrane-free jacket to suit the needs from hunting in the mountains. Water-repellent SCHOELLER® DRYSKIN outer fabric is windproof, lightweight, thermal and breathable while maintaining good snagging resistance qualities. TITANIAL reinforcements on shoulders and back are contoured to protect the garment from rubbing from backpacking, while faux leather on shoulders and hips protects against rubbing while preventing rustling. Stretch KETRATEX underarms to ensure dry fit and comfort in movement. VERTICAL was created to provide protection and capacity for mountain hunters, so pocket placement is also designed for these activities. 6 front pockets, two of which are allocated at the top so they can be used even when the backpack strap cinches at the waist. Two low pockets hidden by gussets and two side pockets complete the equipment. The roomy and versatile rear gusseted meat locker will provide space for all your needs, while zippers on the sleeve lap turn the jacket into a vest.
VERTICAL is equipped with double zippers so you can combine a waterproof shell (Mod. AVALON) or a second thermal layer (Mod. KREST) inside.
