Why We Like The Montane Phase XPD Jacket
The Montane Phase XPD Jacket is an exceptional choice for mountaineering, ice climbing, and ski touring adventures. Crafted with the robustness of GORE-TEX Pro, this jacket offers unparalleled waterproofing and windproofing capabilities. The shoulders, hips, and elbows are reinforced with 80-denier GORE-TEX Pro for extra durability, while the rest of the jacket features 40-denier GORE-TEX Pro for enhanced breathability and reduced weight.
Designed to withstand harsh weather conditions, the Phase XPD is fully seam-sealed for complete weatherproofing. It is also equipped with underarm vents, allowing you to release excess heat and moisture. The two-way zipper and helmet-compatible hood make this jacket suitable for skiers, mountaineers, and climbers.
The Expedition Fit of the Phase XPD is specially designed with articulated arms to facilitate skiing and climbing movements. It provides ample space for layering and features an adjustable hem and hook-and-loop cuffs on the sleeves to effectively seal out snow.
