New for 2014! The  Karakorum  Jacket has a longer cut when compared to the rest of M.E.s hard shell range aimed at for those wanting a bit more coverage. The main body, underarms, & hood are constructed out of 3-layer  Gore-tex 50D fabric. Then in areas such as shoulders, elbows & waist, where a jacket receives the most abuse, M.E. has reinforced them with a 3-layer Gore-Tex 70D fabric. The Mountain HC Hood is fully adjustable & helmet compatible; it is a bit of a snug fit with a helmet as it has not been designed for prolonged helmet use. This style hood is great if you are doing a bit a scrambling or other activities where you are chopping & changing between helmet & no helmet. As it is fully adjustable you can take out all the excess volume to create a secure comfortable fit. M.E. Have made the  Karakorum around their Mountain Fit block, it is a slightly larger cut to allow room for cold weather layers, or for those who find the Alpine Fit just a little too snug. They have also made it slightly longer in the body to give you a bit more protection for all you serious Trekkers & mountaineers. The Stratum Storage System has been applied to the main storage pockets of this jacket. This allows for up to 25% extra storage space than before, so there is heaps of room for you to stash those big laminated maps. The adjustable cuffs & dual tether hem cords can be tighten & synched to help keep out nasty cold drafts & provide a more customizable fit. 3-layer GORE-TEX 50D fabric 3-layer GORE-TEX 70D fabric reinforcements Mountain HC Hood is fully adjustable Mountain fit with long body length Stratum Storage System; 2 large pockets & 1 Napoleon chest pocket with YKK® WR zips Zipped mesh inner pocket 2-way YKK moulded  Aquaguard centre front zip Adjustable cuffs & dual tether hem drawcords 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 & constructions techniques in greater detail.

The  Karakorum  Mountain Pants are commonly seen in serious environments all over the world. This is because they are stupidly rugged & versatile.

They have a full length 2 way YKK zips with an internal storm flap, & a drop rear seat (crap flap) for when nature calls. The fixed internal gaiter keeps out unwater snow & water.

Made using 3 Layer Gore-Tex Pro 40D in the main body & hood, then the super burly 3 Layer Gore-Tex Pro 80D in the high wear areas such as shoulders & arms means this jacket was designed to take a beating from the weather & general mountaineering abuse. The guys at M.E. have used all of their Storm Construction techniques during the design & build of the jacket. Everything form seam construction, placements & taping; which face fabrics to use, bar tack reinforcement & storm guarded YKK  Aquaguard zips. All of these processes help to make this weatherproof fortress not only work exceptionally well but also fit superbly. It is built around Mountain Equipment’s “ Alpine Fit” block so it has a closer fit but with enough room to allow for other layers. The sleeves are pre-shaped & articulated to allow for more natural unrestricted movement. The Mountain HC Hood works great with & without a helmet so it’s a win win. The Dual Tether Hem  Drawcord allows for greater fit customisation whilst also eliminating the risk of snagging things like ice axes & crampons.

Mountain Equipment Mens Kamchatka Salopette Black

The Kamchatka Salopette comes with lock, stock and barrel. Mountain Equipment have injected all of their engineering expertise in constructing a full spec set of salopettes that perform exceptionally well; when the line between steep backcountry skiing and mountaineering become blurred, just reach for your pair of super technical Kamchatkas. Made from 3-layer Gore-Tex Pro 40D fabric and 80D fabric reinforcements; as well as being super durable, like a typical Goer-Tex Fabric, they keep all the wind, rain and snow from getting in. Windstopper X-fast 230 have been inserted in the lower back area for its full windproof yet highly breathable qualities just to stop you from getting too warm and moist. As I said to you earlier, M.E. has pulled out all the stops, so to show off they have
used their Storm Construction techniques; everything from seam placing, construction and taping, to face fabrics, bar tack reinforcement and zips. These salopettes are basically impregnable. They have been fabricated around M.E.’s Active Fit block, this is the closest fitting cut that M.E. do. But because you will most likely be wearing big clumpy boot and ski boots they have increased the lower leg volume for you. The braces are fully adjustable and they have installed a drop rear seat (crap flap), so you don’t have to de-rig when nature calls. There is a pocket specially allocated for your avalanche transceiver for when you are out in the back country. Then on the flip side, if you aren’t using these in the winter snowy condition and are just using them as an over trouser
then you have to option to zip off the internal snow gaiter.
