Description

The Katabatic combines PrimaLoft® Gold Active with a breathable and wind-resistant fabric to keep you warm and comfortable for everything from hillwalking in the Lake District to climbing Alpine icefalls.

Highlights

Breathable fabric and Gold Active keeps you comfortable on the move
Highest quality synthetic insulation for an excellent warmth-weight-ratio
Can be worn as a wind-resistant outer jacket or a super warm midlayer

Highest Quality Synthetic Insulation

We've used compressible 60gsm PrimaLoft® Gold Active insulation, the highest quality synthetic insulation available with a high warmth-to-weight ratio for cold conditions. PrimaLoft® is the ideal insulation for damp or changeable conditions. Its fibres don't absorb water and are treated with a special water repellent, keeping their insulating ability even when wet.

Breathable Warmth on the Move

We've combined this insulation with a breathable and wind-resistant outer fabric. This means you can wear the Katabatic as either an outer layer (like a fleece and softshell combo) or as a super warm midlayer under your waterproof. The air permeable outer fabric lets out excess heat and sweat out to keep you comfortable even when you're working hard – no boil-in-a-bag feeling here.

Designed for Activity

The Katabatic is so versatile, that we couldn’t possibly mention all the activities it’s been used for without writing a novel – it's even been used for arctic fat biking! The active cut with articulated arms is designed to give you full freedom of movement. And the close-fitting hood can be worn under helmets.

PrimaLoft® Gold Active

PrimaLoft® Gold Active is designed to work with more breathable fabrics, so we use it to make insulated garments that you can be active in. The synthetic fibres have a water repellent coating which lets them retain thermal qualities when wet and are made from 45% recycled materials (like plastic bottles). Winner!

PFC-free DWR

The Katabatic uses a completely PFC-free DWR treatment on its outer fabric. PFCs are potentially harmful and have been found to build up in the environment. We don't like the sound of that so we've been working hard to get rid of them.
