Lightweight, windproof, and lightly insulated, the Mountain Equipment Men’s Kinesis Insulated Jacket is designed for demanding alpine routes. Since the weather is almost certain to change as you make your way up big walls, pack the Kinesis into the hand pocket and attach it to your harness with the carabiner carry loop while adding only 11.5 ounces to your rack. Mountain Equipment’s 30D nylon fabric weighs next to nothing and is completely windproof, and with breathable Octayarn insulation in the body, you can even wear it on the approach without sweating out your baselayers. Elasticized cuffs and drawcord adjustable hem seal in heat once you top out on the cold and windy summit.
We’re rich is gonna explain the new canisius jacket that he’s modeling here which is sort of stripped back highly breathable like these yeah and i think. That there’s quite a few pieces of this type out there and it’s not it’s not exactly a new technology so fleet fleece line relatively wind proof layers i think our issue with a lot of them over. The years and we’ve made them previously is they’re often too thick you see a lot. Out there that are kind of 80 90 grams per square meter fabric and it’s it’s. Great but sometimes it just doesn’t move moisture as fast as we’d like expecially for like you know big alpine climbing scottish winter climbing things like that where you’re often you know the amount of activity changes a lot during the day doesn’t it so if i unzip it a. Little bit you’ll see we’ve got this octo yarn fabric inside and this is it’s. About 40 grams per square metre so it’s half the weight of some of the other things of this type out there and it’s a very very fine feet pleased fabric with. This perforation in it and it moves me the holes yeah move moisture very very. Rapidly you know i i’ve really sweated. This jacket up to be one and it dries. Almost straightaway yeah and then we. Combine that with this 30 denia stretch. Air permeable outer fabric and again. We’ve done a lot of sourcing work on this to find exactly the right fabric that strikes that balance between being sufficiently wind proof that you know you don’t need to push ellie on a walk in you know just because it starts howling a bit equally it’s letting off air through it that yeah it dries out. It’s really breathable and obviously equally it’s you know let’s be real in the uk you’re maybe on a scottish when today you’re not gonna be climbing in just this this is a blue sky day it will work really well under a shell you know and it’s slides slides well under other layers as well so yeah super nice bit of. Kit from that point of view and anyone who’s got a school jacket our kind of awesome stretchy rock climbing softshell will probably recognize some of the design features here so we’ve got a similar. Kind of offset zip here all right yeah. With this nice soft chin area so if. You’re spending your whole day kind of looking up with a helmet on yeah you haven’t got poking around in here and the hoodies. Helmet compatible as well work and lots of adjustments there so it’ll work with or without who and for me you know this. Is what i’m wearing for almost everything at the minute i think i love it it’s that really really really nice way and even beyond the winter in the. Alps you know kind of windy day go goth or something it’s enough to be a sort of. All year round exactly it’s a it’s a perfect peaceful. That kind of thing pretty pretty simple cuffs but again you know you can get that over a glove cuff when you need to yeah just a super versatile mega. Breathable windproof layer actually looks great.
Hi today I’m going to review the. Mountain equipment kinesis jacket and this is both a mid layer and an outer layer and can be worn in pretty much any. Conditions over the last couple months this jackets really become my go-to. Favorite piece of outdoor equipment and. I’ve worn it in the alps in summer for. Some alpine climbing my fall in Scotland. Winter climbing in all sorts of different conditions and on various different hiking trips and trail running and it is yeah I’m really happy. With it so let’s get into what makes this jacket so amazing canola’s chuck it. Packs down really small into its own pocket and you can compress it even fires both needs to be it also it comes. With a handy loop so you can use a. Carabiner or something attach it to your harness if you’re using it as a light belay jacket in yeah the tuck is. Also super light so might and. Equipment says it comes in at 325 grams. I’ve weighed it after i bought it and after I’ve worn it for a while and off life and washed it and in size m it. Actually comes in slightly below dirt and stays up that way but so do you know. Fit up the jacket is really nice it’s really nice and snug it’s long enough the it it’s got articulated arm. So if you’re using your arms above your head for climbing it doesn’t come up too much it’s got really cool adjustments. Here on the hem don’t ever wear you can see that where you can adjust either. Front under back length individually which is pretty cool and it’s also got a small pocket on the. Inside here which is big enough for phone or maybe a couple of power bars so. The side pockets are a little bit higher so you can still access them when you’re wearing a harness the jacket also comes. With a hood which is pretty nice and thin and easily fits under helmet so. I’ve worn this instead of a hat in. Scottish winter in any ups as well and it’s always kept my neck and my ears and. My head warm enough and even i mean this. Is the great thing about synthetic insulation that even when you get a bit wet or damp towards the end of the day it keeps you. Relatively warm obviously it’s not going to be nice and cozy anymore but warm enough that you can keep going and get yourself back to the car or wherever. You have it the jacket also all parts. That come in direct contact with the rift skin aligned with this what. Mountain equipment calls. High wicking micro grid fleece and it’s. Actually really comfortable against your skin side I’ve done a really good job there it’s the inside of the arms is also aligned with this kind of stuff so another thing that’s really cool about this jacket is that is really wind proof by the same time really breathable so you don’t have to stop all day to take a layer off put a layer back on you can just keep going its breathable enough for heavy exercise by the same time it’s warm enough that you don’t have to do put. Another layer on when you stop for a little bit so you can just keep going with this layer on all day and it makes. Your day a lot more efficient out in the mountains the only thing that bothers me a little bit about this jack is that on one of the seams so I’m assuming it’s a. Manufacturing error the other seam seems to have been flipped over inside this when it’s been sewn in but it’s not really an issue. That doesn’t impact the performance at all okay let’s summarize the other. Prize of this jacket is super lightweight it’s got a really good insulation to weight ratio it packs down really small into its own pocket it’s a wind brief its breathable and all. Of these make it a really versatile jacket that i would take out on any day in the mountains the only. Cons are there seems to be like an issue with the manufacturing of one of the seams and it’s not cheap and I’m saying. Not cheap and not expensive because yes it’s a lot more expensive than some of the mid layer alternatives maybe such as. A simple fleece but it’s so much more. You can wear it as an outer layer on days when it’s not chucking it down of rain it remains relatively warm when it gets. Wet it’s windy it’s super light it’s really pack able so yeah i would highly. Recommend this jacket to anybody who spends a fair bit of time in the mountains i hope this was useful for you and hopefully see you next time.
hi I’m ian from gargoyles and this is the fantastic iconic light line jacket. From mountain equipment it’s a superbly warm really high-quality jacket for use. In cold weather in the mountains and also as an everyday winter jacket when. The temperature gets really cold the quality’s superb as you’d expect from mountain equipment it’s made with 700 fill power down so. Really high-quality down and that’s been a thickly sourced the outer fabric is. Dry light that’s fully wind proof and highly weather resistant so it will stand up to a light shower or snow and. The features it has a draw cord hem at. The bottom to cinch in to keep drafts out and keep warm air in it has twin really deep hand warmer pockets and. Inside there’s an additional pocket and inside that you’ll find this stuff sack which is for keeping the jacket in when you’re not using it the cuffs have. Velcro adjusters so again they can be cinched in to keep the cold weather out and the warmth in and on the top you have a down hood which is adjustable. With a wired peak but can also be zipped. Off when not needed so you can have the hood or without the hood so this is the. Legendary light line jacket from mountain equipment this is the men’s version, and we also do a women’s version it’s a super warm technical down jacket. For really cold conditions they’re. Available in-store and online now so check them out thank you for watching. You.
Hello today I’m going to do a brief. My mounting equipment vega jacket. The other fabric is adrift light love so. Its claim to be totally removed and as well. Highly water resistant. 235 grams of goose down with a minimum. Content of 9210 800 fill power goose. Down so this is for large size and this. Jacket you actually see is a large size. Small. So let me go over the future first of all you have a adjustable cuff also to. Hemp draw cord from both sides and as. You can see i think the fact is little bit longer so actually it covers my butt. Also a qa ykk zipper and for the inside. You only get one internal pocket the. Size is not too large i think i can. Fit a mitten inside but not actually a. Bottle and this is a size small and as well. For the hood we have a very. Large root this trip even the internal. Fabric use is a tree floss light chief. Flight loss so it is a water-resistant. And also you have plenty of insulation. It’s kind of very thick and also the rim. A little bit hard you feel like this is. A little bit harder like some kind of. This kind of material tight harder for. Conclusion I’ve been using this jacket. For almost a year for trip light to. Bring this to mount fuji and also i use. This for most of my trip in an apparent. Circle track and I’ve been wearing this for from la paz as well so what i like. About this jacket is the view quality of this jacket it feels very good when you. Wear this jacket the design i like it a. Lot and maturity use is just very good. Check it what i don’t like about this. Jacket is the zipper the to me zipper. Works very nice you can just open this. Up very easily no trouble but when you. Pull this trip this zipper up to here if we get caught. On the internal baffle all the time like. Nine out of ten times so it’s kind of annoying so you have to rico this way. This way all the time all the time. Slowly so but that’s one problem and i. Don’t plumber i find is uh this jacket it’s not very. Warm i don’t feel really warm at all. With that with this jacket when i went in mount fuji the temperature is just nine nine degrees Celsius but it is. Very high wind it’s for quite windy so i. Just feel not know i don’t feel a cool. Spot yet but i just don’t feel. This is a very warm jacket and also in. Annapurna circuit at the nighttime when i stay at the guest house i wear this. Jacket and i sometimes i just don’t. Feel warm enough my hands are still cold. Even though i wear this jacket inside the guest house but so far I’m happy. With this purchase because this is my first serious down jacket purchase and i. Give me some idea what I’m looking for. So that’s why I’m if i have is i can. Make a choice again make a decision again i think i will not get this check in instead i would get a mountain equipment maybe k7 jacket a much warmer jacket but anyway this is a good. Good jacket i have to say so thank you. For your time. You.
Hello he’s Clyde for me outdoor here. I’m in snowdonia yesterday we were. Climbing up some mountains in the snow today we’re walking through horace why. The river really beautiful but while i. Was doing it i thought I’d like just to take some time to talk to you about. Mountain equipments Vulcan jacket now. The one that I’m wearing is their mrt version that’s mountain rescue hence the bright colors, but they also do. It in a blue a charcoal and another. Color so you don’t have to have it this bright and because it’s mrt it’s got these reflective strips on the side and on the hood as well so that you can easily be seen now the material is gore. Windstopper 290 soft shell fabric so this. Is a soft shell jacket it is completely. Windproof and breathable and it is. Weather resistant now that means if. You’re out like today it’s a wet day but drizzly wet or you’re out in the snow something like that it’s fine but if you. Are out in the pouring rain you need a hard shell jacket the jacket is designed. Really to be used out in the mountains. When you’re climbing scrambling how high. Activities like that but it’s also a good jacket for wearing on energetic. Walks like this one has been today so. I’ll run through with some of the features with you we’re going to start from the top it’s got a helmet compatible hood with a. Peak it’s not wired peak but it’s reinforced it’s got cords here so it’ll sink into. Your place zips up and there’s double stitching on. The hood to make it weatherproof and then as we work down you probably find the zip oh by the way this is a ykk zip. It lund in from the top and it also undoes from the bottom as well anyways i. Said working from the top so here we are. Overlock stitching across the top here to make it weather type where the proof. There’s a napoleon it pocket here you. Can get your odds and ends but it’s a good size pocket and then inside there’s another little pocket here which you can safely put away stuff. It’s quite a thick material for a. Softshell jacket but it’s not a thermal. Jacket okay so it’s not gonna keep you really warm in cold weather although it. When you get a sweat up and you’re walking you know it’s warm up keep quiet. Warm in it to hand held pockets in it. Two hand pockets and again they’re a good size you can get your ordnance. Survey map inside it and I’ve got my. Gloves in the other one there nice pockets hook and loop and then. They got this elastic bit there to be honest i don’t i don’t really like that. Very much it’s a bit bulky and fiddly um yeah I’m. Not that keen on it but bosses for. Courses as you might say at the side got. Usual draw cords to draw it in keep it. Tight covers your bum well covers my bum well. Keeps them quite low. And i think that’s it i think that is. That is all the features of this jacket it’s a nice jacket it’s a hardy jacket. You know it all them little bear with. Some abrasive ness and stuff like that it won’t rip easy very comfortable I’m a. Medium but there’s plenty of room the. Sleeves are pre bent articulated come at. The world is free shaped articulated so. It easy to bend simply scrambling something like that again yeah they’re. Really quite useful for that bending. Around i think that’s it i think that’s. All the features no there’s one more. Feature which brings me to another point. They stopped pit zips as well which are. Incredibly useful you know when you get really hot and stuff to let the air blow through keep you cool um I’ve been wearing it for a little while now and i find it very comfortable go to. Coat I’ve also had it underneath a. Hardshell waterproof and again it feed. Very comfortably and I’ve had it underneath a thermal jacket a down. Jacket and again it fitted very comfortably it was fine so if you’re. Looking for a general outdoor out in the. Mountains where jacket that is tough. Breathable wind proof fairly weather. Resistant because you’re going to do quite a bit of mounting work then this is mountain equipment Vulcan Jackie. Thanks for watching serum.

Can see that in the frames I’ll try it again there’s a little bit thicker piece down the side but the other seam tape they use is just super thin and. Really flexible very lightweight so you don’t feel it now the wider seam right there it’s still very flexible you don’t really feel it either on the cuff of the. Pants and a small amount of elastic just. Gonna hold decently well around a pair.

Hi there it’s Clyde from the outdoor I’m. In gracie couch and just been walking in. The woods in the forest and I’ve been. Wearing mountain equipment ibex soft. Shall trousers so I’m just going to run. Through the details of them with you. Now these are made from an extra light. 210 stretch double weave soft shell. Fabric there are now pine fit with what. They call regular angle. They’ve got pocket here for your hand. Pocket and then also below there was. Another vent flap carrying on down the. Trousers down here there is another vent. So we get hot you can open it up like. That there’s also a draw cord loop there. But there’s no draw cord in it you have to put your own draw cord in but if you want to you can do now well they got what they call a low volume bottom of. The trousers that is to keep them in. Sort of fairly close and i really like that because as you can see you don’t. Get all cat up with mud up here which is. Often happens you know with your trousers normally when you’re out walking but it helps keep them clean stop some gets away and get some muddy. And if we go up a little bit I’m not. Gonna strip naked it’s a bell and then a. Double popper and the felt lining around the top to. Keep it comfortable the only way for. Five grams so that quite like quiet. Stretchy easy to move in comfortable to. Wear what’s not to like maybe the belts a. Little bit fat for you but apart from that they’re very functional very useful. If you’re scrambling climb in hill. Walking anything like that excellent so its mountain equipment i bet soft shell trousers thanks for. Watching hope you liked it oh yeah by. The way i forgot it’s got a zipped back pocket as well there you go that is it. That’s all of it thanks for watching.
Hi I’m paul from hike light and this. Video is going to be about the ibex pants from mountain equipment now the ibex pants are a soft shell stretch pant. At a very affordable price and in my opinion once you try to stretch pant and doing outdoor activities you won’t want to go back and the important thing about the ibex pants is the premium you’re paying for stretch pant is really quite small so in my opinion well worth the money so let’s go through some of the features the pens now the first thing i want to talk about is the fabric now this is a proprietary fabric from mountain equipment which is why its possible thing that is sold at a pretty affordable price now my opinion the inevitable is to compare with shala. Which is a very expensive material and the rolls-royce as far as shell pants are concerned and in my opinion these compare very well firstly the stretch is. Superb and much as you could want they’re very good in terms of breath ability and also water resistance and compared to shoulder actually quiet. A hard outer — these almost like a sort. Of an a face fabric which means that they’re far less inclined to get caught by bran blur than things which is something that Charlotte tends to suffer from so compared to shoulder I’d say. These are considering the price difference superb value for money and really very attractive the cut on. The ibex pants is pretty athletic, so they’re quite figured hugging, but they’re. All like tights and not gonna make you feel like you look like a marathon runners they do look quite sensible on the hill, but they are quite close-fitting these are 32 inch waists. And i would say my waist is 31 inches which means i could choose between a 30. And a 32 in my opinion if anything I’d. Go up a size of these because they aren’t quite a figure hugging if i took the 30-inch waist then i tend to find they’re they’re too tight for me, so they are quite a close count now on each side. Of the pants there are two pockets and up one and a lower one now these pockets. Are reasonable size, but they’re not gigantic you’re not going to get a map in anything but then you probably wouldn’t want to and then on the right-hand side there’s also an additional pocket on the rear but that’s only on that song but. The waist fastening is with two poppers which i think works much better than one and then there’s a sensible belt with a. Good clasp ear and also the belt is. Enclosed most of around the waist so you don’t get the problem riding up which can happen with some belts only have a few loops around the edges finally the legs have zips with an. Extension inside to make it realistic for these to fit over almost any types of walking boots that you might have now. It’s always hard to give an indication of water resistance for what I’m going to show you the extent to which the d dogs are on these trousers means that the water disperses very quickly so you. Can see there no hint of the water and being absorbed into the trouser so that. Then is the mounting equipment ibex pants a soft shell pant stretch at. A very affordable price.
Hello on one of the buyers at a outdoor. And I’m just going to go through one of my personal products highlights we’re going to take a look at the mountain equipment mission plants there a technical pants that are built for kind of cold conditions mountaineering or hill walk for most outdoor products. Price is quite a good indicator of the sort of quality of the product that you’re actually going to be getting for these mission pants they’re currently at 130 pounds which means that there’s a. Lot of construction and design that’s gone into these so let’s just take a look at the fabric first so the main. Fabric technology used in this is exa. Light these are excellet to 75 and it’s as well. Wind stopper as well and the wind stopper is used in the knees to. Reinforce the knees and also reinforce. The seat of the trousers. This is placed that you want it to. Stay warm you want it to be dry if you’re kneeling down in the snow so here mountain equipment are offering three layers of protection there’s the outer layer which is obviously what you can see here and this is a sort of abrasion. Resistant layer with water repellency. Placed on it then inside that is a sort. Of it’s called a membrane which basically means it’s like a selective barrier inside which will repel the wind. But it also let your legs breathe and then on the inside is sort of softer. Fabric sort of comfort next to your. Knees so these two areas are the places. Where you’re going to want the most keep the wind out but also have good breath ability and durability these trousers have diamond cut crotch as well which basically means there’s an extra. Bit of fabric placed into the crotch like an elongated triangle just to give. Extra stretchy stretch nurse when you’re. Moving it is quite popular with climbers. So the inner ankles as you can see here they’ve got extra bracelet kind of. Resistant that they’re basically being tough and a lot and this is to stop your. Crampons or all your skis wearing it down quickly so mount equipment on the place out there just to sort of protect your ankles there’s also an internal gusset into the. Ankles as well which sort of expands it so that means these trousers should. Accommodate like most pretty much all mountain boots i would have thought and. Also that it’s adjustable in the. Hem as well which here there’s a button. That you can sort of press there and you can either tighten it up once you’ve got your boots on the way you can loosen it so you’ve got that protection around and also a clip hidden away there that you can attach to your move if you need to. There’s the two zip sear that will. Vent your legs for the trousers you. Can see so when you’re on the move and you’ve really solved your legs are sweating a lot you can just open them up let you let your legs breathe for a bit. If you need to do that also we have the. Pockets as well, so we’ve got the integrated standard pockets here zip. Pockets we’ve also a smaller pocket here which. Is also you could leave that open it’s got a mesh back in as well so if you really wanted to keep the airflow going and then finally there’s a integrated belt as you can see which is really. Handy too to give you that adjustment and it’s obviously built into the trousers and also it’s got a double stud. Fastener here and also quite handy that. It’s got a zip flies it’s a double zip. Fly so you can either have it up or down depending on what you need to do it just. Gives you that extra kind of options when you’re out and about or on the go just remember to do your fly’s back up. Again i guess finally these are an. Alpine fit trousers, so they’re know exactly loose-fitting, but they should fit most people i. Mean some people have mentioned thighs but the legs are really that skinny and there’s a bit of stretch there so you should find they fit most of people looking to purchase these are my first choice of trousers if. I’m going out and about in the cold weather they’re perfect for trekking above the snow or if you’re alpine climbing great built. Winter season just for reference I’m wearing size 30 waist I’ve gone for a. Short leg I’m about five eight so that. Should help you when it comes to thinking about the fit of you.
