Salewa Men's Puez GTX 2L Hardshell Jacket Dark Olive Size L

Alpine trekking above the treeline demands a shell that can handle sudden weather shifts. The Salewa Puez GTX 2L Jacket is that layer for men pushing up scree slopes when rain or snow rolls in. Its 2-layer GORE-TEX membrane with PFC-free DWR delivers 28,000 mm waterproof protection while breathing efficiently (RET < 9 m²Pa/W), so you stay dry from both outside and inside. A fixed, adjustable storm hood shields your face without limiting peripheral vision, and the water-resistant YKK front zipper keeps moisture out of the main closure. Two zippered hand pockets and a zippered chest pocket secure essentials, while Velcro cuffs and an elastic drawcord hem seal out drafts. Fully taped seams complete the weatherproof package, making this jacket a dependable three-season shell for alpine trekking and hiking.
