Description:

This limited-edition Wafer Ultima Down Jacket is £147 less than our standard Wafer Ultima K down jacket. It boasts a water-resistant Ultrashell fabric outer, proofing the jacket to a higher degree. Added function comes from the easy access chest pocket.

It's designed with an eye towards mountain racers, ultralight trekkers, bike-packers, multistage ultra runners, lightweight backpackers and wilderness trampers – but well suited to anybody who wishes to move fast and light.

It's lighter than a fleece, much warmer, packs a lot smaller and has a 100% winderproof outer too. The long body length and higher collar work to cut cold air ingress making for even warmer performance. And that’s really not bad, when you consider the 290g/10oz weight!

This astonishing zero degree down top uses our water-resistant Ultrashell fabric to provide total windblock and help keep out the damp and drizzle. The rare 950 fill-power down ensures extremely weight-efficient insulation. This is a top to wear though, not just to weigh: added function comes from the full-length zip, the easy access chest pocket, hand warmer pockets, and the optional down filled hood.

Note: The optional hood needs to be ordered at the same time as the jacket.

Dispatch time: As with all PHD products, these are made to order and by hand. We estimate it will take us around 4 to 6 weeks to make and dispatch sale orders. During busy periods it may take a little longer.

Only available during this sale at a never to be repeated price. Sale ends 6th December.

 

Ultrashell (weight: 40 gsm)

One of the lightest of PHD's coated materials. This ripstop nylon provides complete wind block and good water resistance at minimal weight. Ultrashell gives an excellent upgrade to performance with very little weight penalty.

Lightweight M1 fabric (weight: 39 gsm)

Lightweight silky microfibre. This close-weave 20 denier fabric is fully downproof, but also light and flexible enough to allow the down full loft. A reliable performer that has been the basis for much of our lightweight gear for some time.


950 fillpower down

A newcomer to our range. European goose of rare quality. A high value alternative at the top levels of performance. More on our down insulation.
