Lightweight - Insulate - Activate
The Torres Media Gilet is the perfect layer for those cooler days where fast, stylish and warmth is needed.
Most hill activities intersperse exertion with stationary interludes. To remain comfortable and safe throughout, it is most practical to add a synthetic overlayer quickly on top of your kit.
The synthetic 100g fill offers insulation even in wet weather and the insulation extends to the handwarming pockets. It uses minimal space in the pack but delivers a high warmth per weight ratio.
The Torres Media Gilet is styled for freedom of movement, convenience for packing and practicle for any activity.
- Packs down easily into its own secure internal chest pocket for easy carrying.
- Handwarming from two insulated, zipped pockets.
- The scooped tail and adjustable hem help retain body heat
Nikwax Analogy® Insulator’s synthetic fill provides very effective warming even in wet conditions.
The Insulator combines Nikwax® Windproof closely woven microfibre outer with a synthetic, water-resistant fill to cut windchill and provide excellent insulation for overlayering with other Nikwax fabrics. It retains body heat very effectively to warm the body quickly and deflects the rain while providing excellent moisture vapour transfer. It packs down small, giving a high warmth to weight ratio. The fill gives a down-like feel and performance with the benefit of still working well when wet. It can be compressed in a pack without damage and washed in a home washing machine.
