Men’s AKHG Free Clime Soft Shell Hooded Jacket

Mountains have a way of pulling the rug out from under a weather report – there’s just too much that can change over the course of a few thousand feet. So if your plans have you headed anywhere near their fickle slopes, you could do a lot worse than packing a versatile jacket like this. The Free Clime Soft Shell is flexible, windproof, highly water-resistant and holds just enough warmth to keep you comfortable whether you’re heading into the hills for a day or traversing all the continent’s climates on a months-long thru-hike. A highly waterproof, highly breathable membrane locks out short spells of rain without locking in sweat. Reach Gussets plus flex built into the fabric so you can stay effortlessly mobile as you push through the miles. And the pockets are all designed to be easily accessible whether you’re slinging a daypack or lugging something with a hip belt and internal frame. All told, it’s the one jacket to take with you whenever, wherever, you have the itch to roam.
