Alpine Guide Jacket
Primarily meant for self-propelled objectives, this lightweight, durable, and packable jacket goes from high output to low output easily. With updated GORE-TEX PRO ePE fabric that is free from intentionally added PFAS and abrasion-resistant Hadron LCP (Liquid Crystal Polymer) grid face fabric, this shell can be easily stashed in your pack until the weather turns, providing fast shelter in a more lightweight package. A lower-profile removable RECCO® reflector ensures no more mixed, multiple signals in the field during rescues.
What's been updated: Updates include a light, durable GORE-TEX PRO ePE fabric free from intentionally added PFAS, with our abrasion-resistant Hadron™ LCP (Liquid Crystal Polymer) grid face fabric for maximum durability in a lighter package, and a lower-profile removable RECCO® reflector.
Product tip: The new ePE membrane technology is lighter and thinner, but just as strong and durable as the materials we used before. You may notice the face fabric “wetting out” slightly faster in products with ePE membranes, but rest assured this does not affect the waterproofing of the membrane itself. If you notice the fabric wetting out faster than you’d like, simply wash the jacket and dry it to remove the oil contamination and bring the DWR back to its full power.
