Ridgeline Men's Ascent Soft Shell Jacket Olive

Wind-resistance, warmth and breathability — the perfect jacket for cold-weather hillwalking. Ridgelines Ascent Soft Shell Jacket is the perfect choice for active use in the mountains and moorlands of the British Isles. It features a rugged polyester outer for superb abrasion resistance and durability together with a warm, high-wicking grid-fleece inner. Laminated between these two layers is a membrane which provides a Hydrostatic Head of 5,000mm in conjunction with a high level of breathability — the seams are not sealed so Ridgeline can’t claim it’s ‘waterproof’ but it could certainly be classed as highly water resistant. It’s also extremely quick drying and warm when wet — which, in many ways, is the most important thing when you’re out on the hill. It features a full-length front zip, two large zipped hand pockets, a zipped, external chest pocket and a small arm pocket— all the zips fasten with easy-grab zip pullers, making them straightforward to operate with cold or gloved hands. The deep hood and high neck combine to offer a haven of warmth on cold, blustery days.
