For this jacket, Mountain Equipment's development team was inspired by the experiences of the world's best alpinists and created a thermal insulating down jacket designed for the highest challenges. mountains. A significant distinguishing element from all other down jackets is the additionalexternal GORE-TEXWINDSTOPPERⓇmembrane that covers each chamber. It protects the feathers from moisture and creates another layer of insulation. The unique element of the KRYOS MEN'S JACKET is its hood, which offers unprecedented protection and warmth.

Several years of testing and laboratory tests
KRYOS THE MEN'S JACKET is the result of two years of prototyping and development. Paul Ramsden wore them on an expedition to China in 2018, and the final version of the jacket was seen in Pakistan during the autumn expedition with the world's best alpinists - Tom Livingstone, Uisdean Hawthorn and Chantel Astorga.
The reason why these alpinists wanted this jacket is itsexceptional thermal insulation, high snow, water and wind resistance and at the same time very low weight. There is no comparable product on the market. The GORE-TEX WINDSTOPPERⓇ membrane is completely windproof and extremely waterproof, and the Firestorm™ construction covers all exposed weak points of the jacket, increasing its durability, protection against the elements and thermal insulation. The chamber layout has been improved and the hood is completely new and much better than any other in our range. We measured in the laboratory that the KRYOS MEN'S JACKET is 10% warmer than modern mountaineering and expedition down jackets, the VEGA is slightly heavier. KRYOS thus becomes the new standard for the best mountaineering jacket for extreme conditions.
