Convenient and abundant storageMatte-textured watertight zips are used for zips in various locations. The front has a double zip for convenient silhouette changes and ventilation.
Each pocket is made large, so it is easy to get your stuff in and out. The bottom of the chest pocket has a unique structure that separates it from the main body, and is made with comfort in mind so that the inside of the chest pocket does not interfere directly with the body.
The interior of the side pocket is designed with hand warmers to keep warm. The inside has a mesh pocket and a zipper pocket for ample storage.
Functionality unique to an outdoor brandThe draft tube in the hood and the center back adjuster effectively hold the head in place and keep heat out.
The drawcord hem, Velcro cuffs, and jersey inner cuffs eliminate gaps for cold air to enter and keep the wearer warm.
The distinctive side zip at the neck opens to a mesh fabric ventilation feature, allowing for temperature control while enjoying the design changes.
Evolved heat retentionWarmth is improved by making two layers of down in the front. Furthermore, the box quilt structure used in Nanga sleeping bags is adopted for the wrists, where cold air tends to penetrate, and the back, where the cold is more easily felt, to prevent heat leakage from the stitching, thereby achieving the maintenance of high heat retention.
