Snowbee XStreme Thermal Jacket

Finished in an attractive Olive Green, outer nylon shell, the filling is a synthetic Polyball polyester, with a fill weight of a class-leading 425g. The issue with most thermal jackets, whether down or synthetic filling, is that they lose much of their insulation properties, once the filling gets wet. To help avoid, this the 380T nylon outer shell, is treated with a 'Matt Ciring finish'. This is a technique used on textiles for this type of use, which involves treating the finished cloth, with a heat and pressure process, which makes the outer surface waterproof, but gives it a matt finish and a soft feel. In addition to this, the outer surface is then treated with a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating, so light rain will bead-up and run off the surface. Although not designed as a ‘waterproof garment’, this not only helps keep you dry if caught out by an unexpected shower, but more importantly, keeps the polyester filling dry, so it retains its thermal properties. 

Our new jacket makes an ideal outer-layer on crisp, dry days, or a perfect thermal mid-layer, under an outer breathable shell, to keep you toasty warm even on the coldest days. Team it up with our amazing Mini-Pack Jacket for the perfect, flexible combination. 

For additional comfort and warmth, the high collar is lined with a self-colour, knitted and elasticated collar lining and the bottom hem and cuffs, are bound with a self-colour, elasticated piping, for a warm, snug fit on even the coldest days. 

The full-length front 2-way zip, has an internal cover-flap to keep the wind out. There are 2 large, side zipped pockets, plus 2 deep ‘pouch’ pockets inside, one of them, with an additional secure zipped pocket for mobile, wallet, car keys etc. 

Weighing in at just 455g (Size M), our new jacket packs down into the smallest of spaces, making it ideal for travel, or to stuff in a kit-bag, when out fishing for the day.
