The Compressor Hooded Jacket is very similar to the M.E. Arete Jacket. They are both considered as a heavyweight mid layer piece or a super lightweight belay jacket and both are constructed using the same Helium 30 outer fabric; however the Compressor is filled with PrimaLoft Gold instead of duck down. This means that this jacket is more suitable for use if you know the day is going to be wet (which in the UK are most days); the reason for this is because PrimaLoft Gold still works when wet where as a down would just die. The Helium 30 fabric itself is highly windproof protecting the nice warm air that is trapped within the PrimaLoft insulation. The adjustable Mountain Hood gives a precise cranial fit and like any decent belay jacket; it packs into its own pocket and can be attached to your harness using the stitched in crab loop. Helium 30 outer is exceptionally lightweight and windproof PrimaLoft GOLD insulation [60g with 40g arms and side panels] Quilted body construction Adjustable Mountain Hood 2-way YKK moulded centre front zip 2 zipped hand warmer pockets Napoleon chest pocket For all you kit geeks out there, the links below will take you to Mountain Equipments Information pages where they will explain this jackets different fabrics, fills and constructions techniques in greater detail.

The Arcteryx Kappa Hoody is a brilliant winter insulated hooded jacket. Whilst not guaranteed completely waterproof it will keep out all but the most extreme weather. Heavily insulated with a 140g synthetic Coreloft polyester fibre the Kappa is perfect for active pursuits in freezing conditions. The Kappa is constructed using N70p Windstopper fabric with critical areas reinforced with N80p-X fabric for increased abrasion resistance. Windstopper fabric is made using the same PTFE membrane as normal Gore-Tex products but without some of the protective layers and no taping on the seams, this makes it very highly water resistant but not absolutely completely waterproof. Arcteryx further enhance the wet weather performance of the Kappa by taping the critical seams over the shoulders and chest. Our practical experience has shown us that you would have to try very hard indeed, in some pretty horrendous conditions, to get wet in this jacket. The advantage of Windstopper over Gore-Tex is that it is much more breathable, so better suited to more aerobic activities. Insulation is taken care of by 140g of Coreloft, a siliconised, highly crimped polyester yarn that is highly breathable, compressible and has excellent loft retention. Unlike down Coreloft will retain much of its warmth even if it does get wet. The Kappa is a brilliant jacket made superbly and suitable for all outdoor activities or as a reliable and warm winter jacket. Weight: 751g Features: N80p-X/N70pWindstopper highly breathable and very water resistant fabric 140g Coreloft insulation Insulated fixed StormHood Neck draught excluder Two zipped handwarmer pockets Zipped chest pocket Hem drawcord Hip length.
The Lowe Alpine Dryflow 120 Pants have a moisture wicking elasticated waist band and are comfortable to wear under your normal trekking pants, the 120 refers to the fabric weight of 120 grams per square metre. Highly effective moisture management works when you are active and sweating to spread the moisture over the large surface area to evaporate rapidly, and then when you stop the fabric dries very quickly to ensure efficient temperature control, reducing the chilling effect. Cocona fabric is made using natural technology and contains activated carbon from discarded coconut shells. Cocona will not wear off or wash out as it is contained inside the fibres. It is extremely breathable and accelerates evaporation by increasing the surface area by 800%. The activated carbon element absorbs odour molecules which are then released and the carbon refreshed by the warmth from washing and drying. As well as all that it provides a natural UVA and UVB barrier and shields the skin from harmful UV radiation. To really help you remain pong free Lowe Alpine have also added Microban to the garment which inhibits bacterial growth to keep the Dryflow 120 Pants smelling fresh. Microban is built in during the manufacturing process providing odour control for the lifetime of the garment
Rab have upgraded all their brilliant sleeping bags for the 2014 season with Hydrophobic Down. This flurocarbon free treatment was developed in conjunction with Nikwax and although Hydrophobic Down is not waterproof it dries much faster, absorbs less water and retains loft far better than untreated down. The Rab Neutrino 200 is a stupendously light bag and is hand filled in Derbyshire with 200g of 800 fill power Hydrophobic White Goose Down for maximum loft and insulation. The Tapered Mummy shape is optimised for bags with fill weights between 100 and 600g and has been designed purely for performance with a close fitting and tapered shape with little slack in the inner. The shape of the Trapezoidal internal baffle chamber delivers a very stable structure that results in a consistent distribution of down throughout the bag and the minimal differential cut combine to give a close technical fit. Differential cut is a technology developed by Rab to ensure that the space between the lining and the outer fabric is optimised for the specific filling and fill power. This maximises the potential of the down to loft naturally resulting in greater performance. Both the inner and outer fabrics are Pertex Quantum, a superlight fabric that allows the down to reach its maximum loft and moulds to your body shape filling up any dead spaces internally. Access is via a 1/2 YKK zip with an anti-snag baffle. An internal shoulder baffle helps to maximise warmth provides. Both the hood and the shoulder baffle have drawcords. Temperature ratings are used to indicate a bags performance but are subjective and can be hugely affected by many factors such as your health and metabolism, how much you have had to eat or drink, how active you have been, humidity and altitude, the type of shelter used and whether you are using a suitable insulating mat. Your sleeping bag is only as good as the mat that’s beneath it, we recommend EXPED mats for comfort and insulation. The Comfort rating indicates the range at which a woman gets a full night’s sleep, the Limit of Comfort rating indicates the range at which a man gets a full night’s sleep and the Extreme rating indicates a range at which a woman is protected from hypothermia. The Extreme rating is basically a survival rating and it is not advisable to rely on this for general use.
