The Ultimate Insulated Crag JacketLocation: Stanage Plantation boulders, the Peak District. Sometime during the cold season that hangs between September and April in the UK... The morning dew was crunching underfoot, but the grit was good. Perfect conditions. The wind had picked up and we'd taken shelter between two boulders. That was when it happened. All it took was a brief moment of contact between the jacket and the rock. Punctured fabric. Feathers everywhere. The idea hit us pretty soon after - we had to make an insulated crag jacket that was fit for crag conditions. Warm, wind-resistant and tough. Carrying a roll of repair tape seemed pretty ridiculous. If a jacket can’t handle brushing up against rocky surfaces, it’s simply not good enough for the job. Fast forward two years of design, development and testing... The Meteor Jacket answered all our wishes. Made from our famous, tried and tested, Cypher Pant fabric. Stuffed with 160 gsm cosy synthetic insulation and lined the inside with an ultra-soft taffeta lining. Tailored with an adjustable roomy hood, two zipped hand pockets and a large zipped chest pocket that easily fits a smartphone. Finished with quilted stitch detailing and contrast coloured zippers to give it a style that's worthy of the crag and the pub. Finally, we gave the Meteor the best price tag we could, so everyone has the chance to benefit from a proper, cold season rock-ready jacket.
