PHD Mountain Software

A simple well-filled down jacket. With box-walls throughout and a Drishell outer the Garwhal is suitable for use in very cold conditions.

"I will be using it as my default belay/contingency jacket. . . Thank you for this great product."
A.M.

Two external zip pockets and one internal. The Drishell outer helps to keep the down dry, while the potential abrasion areas on shoulder, outer arm and seat have tough P11 patches. Shock-cord hem and detachable down hood. The pocket system is not suitable for use with a harness.

As used in the Yukon Arctic Ultra, by the Extreme South team, and by many others.

*Please note: we make our stuff sacs big enough to allow fairly easy stuffing rather than reducing the bag to the tightest minimum. What air is left in the packed item will easily be compressed out of it, if you are squashing it into a small space in your rucsace. Tiny stuff sacs look impressive: but unless you are a sac-wrestling fan, fighting the gear into them day after day can be an unncecessary chore.

"I will be using it as my default belay/contingency jacket. It will replace the RAB summit extreme jacket that I have been using for this purpose. The PHD is lighter, packs smaller, and has just the right warmth. Thank you for this great product." A.M.

"[I have a] Garwhal jacket [which] reminds me of my old style ME Annapurna and [is] much better than the Rab Jackets I have looked at as it is cut longer" A.R.

"I had a Garwhal duvet jacket made for me and I am very pleased with it." D.S.
