Salewa Vento Powertex 2.5L Jacket M

Whether as a bike-to-hike tour, a bike-to-climb tour or straight to the summit: you decide how you want to get around in the mountains. And to ensure that even inclement weather can't hold you back - and that you always stay protected - we have developed the Vento Powertex 2.5-layer-jacket. Waterproofness and breathabilityThe Vento Powertex Jacket is a weatherproof hardshelljacket with a high waterproofness (water column) of 10,000 millimetres and fully taped seams. The water column describes the pressure required for water to penetrate the fabric. Above all, however, the 2.5-layer-jacket scores with a very high breathability of 40,000 g/m²/24h: This means that up to 40 liters of water vapor per square meter can evaporate within 24 hours. This means the jacket is comfortable to wear in the saddle all day long. Bike-specific fit With its longer cut back, high collar and extended cuffs to keep out cold draughts, the Vento Powertex Jacket is specially designed for the demands of bike tours. It also has an elastic, comfortable storm hood that fits snugly under a helmet and provides a clear view at all times - which is particularly important for safety on demanding terrain. The special ventilation slits in the upper back area provide additional ventilation when the climb becomes more strenuous. Important small items such as gloves or energy bars can be safely stowed in the zippered chest pocket and remain within easy reach. If the temperature - or the intensity - rises, the Vento jacket can be easily stowed away in its own integrated compression pocket. Our commitment As a Salewa Committed product, the Vento Powertex 2.5-layer jacket is equipped with a water-repellent PFC-free DWR (durable water repellent) finish and meets our additional environmental and sustainability standards to leave the smallest possible ecological footprint. Be part of the mountains, ride in harmony with nature - the waterproof, breathable Vento Powertex jacket will accompany you on all your bikeadventures.
