Mountain Equipment Arete Jacket

The Mountain Equipment Women's Arete Hooded Jacket has been revised for 2016 to make every gram of down count! With a little extra length it's a super-light down jacket that's great for winter ski tours and summer mountain trails alike. It's a brilliant insulated midlayer and is very compressible for easy packing if required. Made from Helium fabric that ensures the highest levels of down-proofing, wind resistance and resistance to heat loss. The insulation is high-quality water-resistant duck down and has an actual minimum down cluster content of 90%. It has been treated with a durably water-repellent Bluesign™ approved Teflon treatment. DOWN CODEX approved.
