Prism is an essential piece of mountain clothing whatever the activity! Warm even when wet.

Overview

This jacket is the one bit of kit that we use all year round. Perfect for New Zealand conditions as it uses synthetic insulation. If it does get damp, its keeps working unlike some down garments. 

It's the most versatile piece of insulation in the MONTANE® range, and an essential piece of mountain clothing whatever the activity. Using 40g PRIMALOFT® SILVER ECO insulation throughout ensures that the Prism is warm yet lightweight enough to be worn on the move in cool conditions.

Used and abused by Mountain Rescue teams across the UK, the Prism can be worn as a mid-layer within any shell system or alone as an outer jacket in drier weather.
