Mountain Hardwear Men's Kepler Jacket

Lean, clean and completely waterproof, the Mountain Hardwear Kepler Jacket for men offers far more weatherproof protection than most traditional soft shell designs available from outdoor manufacturers. That's because soft shell jacket designers usually focus on breathable fabrics that compromise waterproof performance. Mountain Hardwear solved this concern by using a new DRY.Q™ Elite fabric technology that features an air-permeable membrane that expels far more body vapor than most waterproof and breathable shells on the market. While you probably don’t even need pit zips, Mountain Hardwear added some to help you vent heat on extra tough climbs. To minimize weight, they applied sonically-welded seams while using waterproof zippers to seal out moisture. In case you wondered, the Kepler Jacket is fully windproof, too. Vapor can escape from the inside, but nothing passes through from the exterior.
