Description:

This limited edition Gamma Synthetic Vest is £47 less than our standard Gamma Vest. Although a little heavier (by just 20g) it boasts a water-resistant Ultrashell fabric outer, proofing the vest to a higher degree. Part of our Summer Light, Autumn Fast Collection.


With late summer and autumn’s lower temperatures comes more condensation, increasing the likelihood of damp gear inside and outside your tent. Like the rest of our Summer Light, Autumn Fast Collection, this vest is ‘Autumnised’, built to repel damp and drizzle. At the same time it’s incredibly light, helping you travel fast.

With a combination of Primaloft Gold® insulation, water-resistant Ultrashell, and our super lightweight 7X fabric, light zips, and a simple design, this synthetic-filled vest is the right piece of kit when it's going to be cold and damp.

At just 170g (medium size) the ultra-light Gamma Vest is a superb layer for long distance trekking, backpacking, and racing. The combination of total wind-proofness and synthetic insulation makes for a versatile vest or mid-layer.

It is cut long in body to reduce cold air ingress around the lower back.

Zipped hand-warmer pockets at the waist provide a superb refuge for chilled hands and the optional hood provides superb warmth and wind-block.

As with all our Gamma gear, this vest uses high performance 60g Primaloft Gold synthetic insulation, edge-stitched for maximum loft and therefore maximum warmth.

In our experience the 60gsm Primaloft Gold® synthetic insulation absorbs water much more slowly than other synthetic waddings, a marked advantage in cold, wet conditions.

Only available August and September.
