Mammut Verglas Jacket

Men's Clothing > Jackets & VestsRated: **** by 1 review.

Mountain Gear

Battle sheets of ice and layers of powder with the aptly named Verglas Jacket from Mammut, a stretchy, lightweight shell geared for high-energy activities that demand cool comfort and breathability. Interior heat and moisture escapes breathable schoeller-dryskin, a serious sweat-wicking, stretch fabric - but that's only if you get warm, the fabric's ColdBlack treatment helps even dark-colored fabrics to reflect as much as 80% sunlight, rather than absorbing it and potentially causing you to overheat. This product was selected for the Outside Magazine 2009 Buyer's Guide. Specifications based on size Large.

Features:

  • Even if the sun breaks, you don't overheat in ColdBlack treatment that reflects up to 80% of sunlight - almost like light colors
  • Expect nothing but constant comfort as you move with light, stretchy SOFtech jacket constructed with schoeller-dryskin, a breathable combination of durable Cordura, Lycra and Coolmax
  • Never lose track of your sleeves, keep them in place with the thumbloops
  • Protect yourself from precip with the drawcord hood, chin protection, and adjustable hem
  • Stow gear or an on-the-rock snack in the 2 side pockets or chest pocket

Great jacket need snow and ice to give a full evaluation

Rating:****
Check back in December and I'll give a full performance report. Right now all I can give is a fit and finish report. Recieved the jacket in the mail in a weeks time. I had to send it back for a different size. We'll get to that in a minute (altrec was great to deal with over the phone). I'm 5'11", long in the back and broad in the shoulders. Mammut claims the Verglas has a roomier cut than normal so I ordered a Lg hence the return for an Xlg. Fit was perfect. Room for layers without being tight yet doesn't bag on you without. Plenty of jacket below my harness - doesn't creap out when I stretch. Material has lots of stretch to it. Hood fits over my helmet good with no restriction to it. I don't have ape hangers for arms but both Lg and Xlg were plenty long, Xlg obviously being longer which I like, thumb loops are a huge plus.
