Finding the right jacket for alpine pursuits can be tricky. If you enjoy winter hill walking, trekking and snow sports, there are specific clothing features that each activity needs.

To take part in a range of alpine pursuits, your alpine clothing wish list may look something like this:

·       Body temperature regulation

·       Adequate wicking

·       Good insulation

·       Protection against challenging conditions

·       Abrasion and tear resistance

·       Freedom of movement

·       Lightweight

That’s quite a list! Can all of those wishes be granted in one jacket? At BCH Camping? Of course!

The men’s Buffalo Alpine Jacket is your alpine activity wardrobe essential.

All you need to know about the men’s Buffalo Alpine Jacket

The men’s Buffalo Alpine Jacket is ideal for hill walking and trekking on higher levels, snow sports and other alpine activities. Its smart design makes the Buffalo Alpine Jacket a fashionable choice for urban wear too.

Offering exceptional breathability and windproof protection in conditions with up to 50 mph winds and temperatures between -5°C to and 12°C, the Buffalo Alpine Jacket provides the ultimate shield while you enjoy your outdoor pursuits. This is thanks to its high-performance features including:

·       The Pertex Quantum high-performance mini ripstop outer shell. This lightweight, soft but durable fabric, which fully lofts, incorporates tear resistance which is essential when moving against rock faces and in other rugged environments. ‘Mini’ ripstop refers to a smaller, tighter-knit grid pattern than standard ripstop for enhanced tear resistance, without additional mass or weight.

·       To keep you warm and dry, the AquaTherm pile lining wicks moisture and sweat away.

·       The Teclite lining of the fixed, fold-away hood is designed for high activity use in mild to cold conditions where moisture can build up quickly. Its fast-wicking properties ensure you remain dry and comfortable.

·       The internal storm baffle on the two-way front zip prevents drafts to keep you warm.

·       Touch and close cuff adjustment tabs allow you to easily tighten or loosen the cuffs in response to changing conditions or to accommodate gloves.

·       The elasticated hem can be adjusted on the inside to cinch the bottom of the jacket for a closer fit.

·       The men’s Buffalo Alpine Jacket provides freedom of movement for a speedy response when needed during alpine activity.
