It can both wick away moisture on strenuous uphill legs and retain warmth at wind-ravaged belays. It helps you keep moving, focusing on the task at hand, not swapping layers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the centre of the Switch Pro’s active insulation is the unique Octayarn Warp-knit lining: a modern, lightweight and highly wicking alternative to traditional polyester fleece fabrics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnder the microscope, Octayarn is made from hollow, multidentate fibres, with each individual fibre having eight protruding cog-like ‘teeth’. This complex 3D structure increases surface area and traps warm air, improving warmth and moisture-wicking capability while reducing overall weight. Octayarn offers the thickness of an 80-denier fibre but for half the weight and considerably less bulk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWoven in a highly breathable warp-knit and without an inner face fabric, the Octayarn offers unparalleled moisture transfer, keeping you comfortable when working hard, particularly on technical terrain where constantly switching layers isn’t an option.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo counter the loss of a smooth inner face fabric, we’ve reversed the Octayarn lining on the arms. This provides the same level of insulation but prevents binding to base layers when pulling the jacket on and off and allows unrestricted movement when reaching for holds. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition to the Octayarn lining, a lightweight, stretch-woven outer offers protection from light rain, spindrift and cold winds. While under the arms, along the sides, and through the hood, panels of bluesign® approved Pontetorto® Tecnostretch fleece improve fit. Crafted at a family-run fabric mill in Italy, this highly technical stretch fleece is our highest-performing fleece fabric. As well as improving fit, the strategically placed panels help to prevent overheating, reduce bulk for comfortable layering, and allow complete freedom of movement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePacking small but offering exceptional warmth and comfort, it is essential for fast and light missions and multi-day objectives in cold and changeable conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLightweight 20D RS Nylon outer fabric.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eWind-resistant, with mechanical stretch for freedom of movement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDurable water-repellent (DWR) finish.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eSheds rain and snow to keep the outer fabric drier for longer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOctayarn Warp-knit fabric.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eExceptional insulation, breathability and fast-drying comfort\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e162g m⁻² brushed-back stretch fleece [underarms, top of hood and side panels].\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eFor increased breathability and mobility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eActive fit.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eFor fast-moving dynamic activity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlatlocked seams.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eNext-to-skin comfort\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eYKK® centre front zip.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eEasy to use in all conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2 zipped hand warmer pockets and 1 chest pocket.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eSecure storage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eElasticated cuffs and hood, semi-elasticated hem.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eAdded protection from wind and weather whilst fine-tuning fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePacks into pocket, twin karabiner carry loops.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003ePacks small and easily clipped to a harness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Mountain Equipment","offers":[{"title":"Slate\/Green Fern \/ Medium","offer_id":57486350352759,"sku":null,"price":200.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Slate\/Green Fern \/ Large","offer_id":57486350385527,"sku":null,"price":200.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Slate\/Green Fern \/ XL","offer_id":57486513930615,"sku":null,"price":200.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0745\/7698\/6409\/files\/ME-008967_Switch_Pro_Mens_Jacket_Me-02329_SlateGreen-Fern.webp?v=1790170705","url":"https:\/\/craigdonperth.co.uk\/products\/mountain-equipment-switch-pro-hooded-mens-jacket","provider":"Craigdon Mountain Sports Perth","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
