    Lhotse Men's Jacket

    The multi-award winning Lhotse remains our best selling GORE-TEX Pro jacket, a mountaineering classic that represents the best possible blend of protection, weight and durability.

    The multi-award winning Lhotse remains our best selling GORE-TEX Pro jacket, a mountaineering classic that represents the best possible blend of protection, weight and durability.

    The Lhotse’s popularity comes from its versatility, a reliable refuge on rain lashed mountains, icy gullies or Alpine peaks where it can be worn all day or stay buried in a pack, a reassuring presence if you’re caught out far from the valley floor.

    GORE-TEX Pro is used in conjunction with a hard wearing 80 denier face fabric over the shoulders and sleeves and a slightly lighter 40 denier fabric through the main body. This gives an ideal combination of durability, comfort and packability for regular mountain use.

    The Alpine fit removes excess fabric whilst ensuring complete freedom of movement and still allowing room for normal year-round layering. Our renowned Mountain HC Hood gives exceptional protection in the very worst weather, accommodating a climbing helmet when required, it easily adjusts to any situation.

    Large pockets and easy to use moulded YKKⓇ zips give easy access to essentials and laminated cuffs are sized to fit over a glove to seal out the worst weather.
