The Montane Men's Extreme Jacket fully lives up to its name as it is a superb jacket that will cope with extremes of cold weather such as Polar expeditions.

This is an updated version that deserves to retain the name as any changes only serve to ensure the hard-won and enviable reputation of the Montane Extreme Jacket will live on and flourish.

This single-layer, softshell, extreme mountain jacket with its detachable hood has all the same qualities tested over two decades by the likes of mountain rescue teams around the world but the styling, the fit and the trim have been updated and improved upon.

The basis of this jacket’s performance is the highly windproof, breathable and fast-drying Pertex Classic 6 outer shell while the Dryactiv 3000 lining with its high warmth-to-weight ratio and excellent wicking properties ensures this is a high-tec and very high-performance jacket inside as well as outside.
