It is also waterproof (10,000mm), windproof and highly breathable (5,000mvp). The body-mapping pattern of the gilet is formed using wavy channels across the front and back and distributes the air to fit the contours of the body, increasing thermal performance and reducing cold spots. It has an inflatation valve concealed internally under a flap on the upper right side.
