Mountain Equipment Saltoro Gore-Tex Men's Jacket

Lightweight and packable enough to carry for emergencies, yet robust and reliable for all-day wear, the Saltoro is the ideal waterproof and windproof layer for trekkers, backpackers, and hillwalkers. It is designed to handle mixed weather conditions in the mountains. Constructed with next-generation GORE-TEX with ePE membrane and a durable 75D face fabric, the Saltoro is a comfortable waterproof shell that can withstand regular use while carrying a pack. Its carefully developed Alpine fit and articulated, pre-shaped sleeves minimize bulk without restricting movement, allowing you to confidently navigate technical terrain. The fully adjustable, helmet-compatible Mountain Hood provides reliable protection against driving rain. Additional features include a dropped rear hem, adjustable laminated cuffs, and dual tether hem drawcords that enhance protection, seal out water, and improve fit. The YKK moulded Aquaguard centre front zip with an internal storm flap adds extra insulation against heavy rain, while zipped underarm vents help manage moisture during steep ascents or in humid conditions. Two large, zipped pockets are perfect for accommodating maps and other essentials. Whether packed away as a backup for changing conditions or worn continuously in inclement weather, the Saltoro is essential for those who trek, backpack, or hill walk but refuse to compromise on protection.
