Salewa Men's Puez Aqua 4 PTX 2.5L Waterproof Rain Jacket Black Out L

When the sky opens up on a high alpine trek, a reliable shell is not a luxury—it is a necessity. The Salewa Puez Aqua 4 PTX 2.5L Jacket answers that call with a fully waterproof, breathable design that keeps you moving through sudden downpours and persistent drizzle. Built with Salewa's own Powertex 2.5L membrane, it delivers a 10,000 mm water column rating and 10,000 g/m²/24h breathability, so you stay dry from both rain and sweat. The athletic fit and fully taped seams ensure no water sneaks in, while the PFC-free DWR finish sheds light moisture without harming the environment. At just 294 g, it packs down small enough to live in your pack until the weather turns.

Who is it for

This jacket is made for male hikers, trekkers, and alpine enthusiasts who need dependable rain protection without the bulk. Whether you are on a multi-day hut-to-hut tour or a fast-and-light day hike, the Puez Aqua 4 PTX 2.5L gives you the confidence to push on when conditions deteriorate. Its athletic cut suits lean builds and layers comfortably over a base layer or light midlayer.
