Xero Down Salopettes

Very happy to report that the Xero Salopettes performed fantastically and kept us warm and safe especially during summit day where temperatures dropped below -30 deg C.

Description:

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 and choose the waist and inside leg sizes 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.


Designed for fast moving expeditions to the highest levels or for any extreme cold weather venture where weight is at a premium. These down salopettes use lightweight, water-resistant Ultrashell fabric (with tough Tempest reinforcement) and a highly efficient lightweight construction, combining with the Omega or Xero Down Jackets to provide highly versatile packages, warm enough for the most severe conditions.

1000 down option

Now available with our unique 1000 fillpower down as a 'K Series' product.

As used by the BBC's Tribe team in Siberia, the Ice Warrior team, the Extreme South team, and many others.

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.

900 Fillpower Down

European goose down of very high quality. A truly excellent down with large clusters, consistent quality and lively long-term performance. More on our down insulation.

Waterproof HS2 outer fabric (weight: 88 gsm)

HS2 is a 2-layer laminate, a high-spec option for the outer layer of our insulated gear. This ripstop fabric strikes an excellent balance between lightness and durability. It is light enough for our Belay tops and tough enough for expedition use in our Omega clothing, while the Kappa clothing makes full use of both its qualities. HS2 is completely waterproof (when the seams are taped) and offers excellent breathability. (Weight: 88gsm).


"Just a quick note to let you know that ALL 5 members of our team reached the Summit of Cho Oyo (8201m). Another member of the team wore [your Xero down] Salopettes and ... was comfortable and impressed. Thanks for the great gear."
