Salewa Puez 2.5L Powertex Jacket M - Unisex's hardshell jacket

To ensure optimal protection in harsh conditions, we developed and extensively tested Salewa’s Puez Aqua Jacket among the rugged mountain peaks of the Dolomites. The 2.5-layer ripstop fabric with a Powertex® membrane is made from 57 percent recycled materials and is the ideal companion in adverse weather conditions. With a water column rating of 10,000 millimeters, the material is reliably waterproof: The water column rating describes the pressure required before water can penetrate the fabric. Nevertheless, with a breathability rating of 10,000 g/m²/24h, the jacket remains extremely breathable: This means that 10 liters of water vapor can evaporate per square meter within 24 hours—ensuring the jacket remains comfortable even during strenuous activities. The jacket’s design and features are engineered for full functionality during alpine hikes and trekking tours: The fully taped seams, waterproof zippers, and durable water-repellent (DWR) coating provide reliable protection against moisture and rain on both the front and the pockets. Weighing just 310 grams, the Puez Aqua is a lightweight—and when stowed in a backpack, it weighs about as much as two apples. The Puez Aqua is made from recycled materials and features a PFC-free, durable water-repellent (DWR) finish; it is part of the SALEWA® Committed collection, in which products are manufactured according to independently verified environmental and social standards.
