Also available in custom sizes. We make clothing to order, so if you’re not a standard size we can make it to fit. To order a non-standard custom size, select the Custom Sizing tab, choose your body width, and then the body/arm lengths, shorter or longer, that work for you. A custom size takes us a little longer (typically two weeks longer) to make and, because it’s personalized, it’s non-returnable and our customer loyalty scheme can’t be applied.
The combination of Ventile® and down has long been appreciated by Polar explorers in the Arctic and the Antarctic , where the effective weather protection, reassuring warmth and exceptional breathability combine to great effect. This has also made it a favourite with wildlife cameramen, commuters in the coldest cities, and many others who simply prefer the natural, rustle-free qualities of traditional outdoor fabrics , the way they were before the introduction of ripstop nylon and Gore Tex.
The Troms Jacket, with its reassuring weight and temperature rating of -10°C (14°F), combines the dependability and handling qualities of Ventile® with the cut of a modern climber’s jacket.
A grown-on hood, YKK Aquaguard zips, and adjustable Velcro cuff tabs provide maximum warmth and protection in gnarly conditions. The chest pocket, hand-warmer pockets, reflective piping on the chest, and adjustable shock-cord hem complete its features, maximising performance in the worst of the cold weather.
For those unfamiliar with Ventile®, this is the original technical all-weather fabric. Those who do know it will recognise the beauty which lies in its combination of breathability, dependability and a quiet, soft handle. At PHD, we’ve been using Ventile® to make down clothing for 20 years, and here in our Ventile® Outwear collection we’re able to look beyond making the latest weight-saving innovations and embrace the broader possibilities of these beautiful 100% cotton fabrics.
