The Mountain Equipment Men's Aerotherm Jacket is for many of Mountain Equipment's staff and team members their go-to item for fast-paced mountain days in moderate weather It’s one of the most versatile jackets in our range because of how well it meets the demands of almost any mountain activity, seamlessly combining wicking capability with windproof protection to create a layer you can wear all day, whether running, hiking or climbing.

For its outer layer the Aerotherm uses windproof EXOLITE 45 double weave soft shell. Lightweight, breathable and with slight stretch, this is an ideal protective fabric to keep the wind at bay while still being comfortable and mobile. Inside the jacket, a soft and highly wicking micro-grid lining efficiently draws away moisture during focused uphill efforts, wicking away sweat and preventing discomfort. This layer also provides some valuable warmth on exposed summits and ridgelines. Together, these layers dry extremely quickly and help keep you comfortable in changeable mountain conditions and through stop-start activity.

Designed with a slim Active fit to minimise excess fabric, the Aerotherm layers well under a waterproof shell when necessary. It can be adjusted at the hem using a drawcord to fine tune fit and the cuffs are elastane bounds to keep the wind out. An adjustable Mountain Hood with elasticated border offers secure protection when running or in strong winds but can be rolled away when not required. Throughout the arms, the microgrid lining is reversed to prevent catching or binding with other layers, and the articulated sleeves are unrestrictive during technical scrambling and climbing. Zipped hand pockets and a chest pocket store essentials, and the jacket packs neatly into its handpocket with twin carry loops for easy carrying in a pack or on a harness.
