At first I was a bit disappointed; the material was totally stiff and noisy. After the first wash, this was greatly reduced. I’m delighted with the wind and water protection. Really great. I also like the pocket layout (as on an M65 field jacket); there are also two large inner pockets, which I personally find very good. All in all, a great product for this price.
Highlander Forces Typhon Watherproof Jacket - Arid MC Camo
Waterproof jacket made of lightweight and durable polyester material. The outer layer of the jacket is coated with a Teflon DWR coating, which effectively repels water and protects against permanent dirt. Taped seams provide additional protection against moisture penetration.
AB-TEX Tri-Max membrane, waterproof zippers, integrated hood
The AB-TEX Tri-Max membrane guarantees water resistance of 5000 mm/m2 and breathability of 5000 g/m2. The jacket is fastened with a full-length double-sided waterproof zipper, secured by a wide storm flap, which further protects against wind and moisture. The integrated hood effectively shields the head and neck from rain and strong winds. The hood can be tucked into a special pocket hidden in the jacket's collar.
Velcro cuffs, adjustable hem
The long sleeves feature Velcro adjustable cuffs for added protection against the cold. An adjustable hem at the bottom of the jacket prevents puffing up, and a high collar protects the neck from wind and cold, ensuring comfort in harsh weather conditions.
7 practical pockets
The jacket is equipped with 7 pockets:
- 2 on the chest buttoned, with D-ring attachment points
- 2 on the hips closed with buttons
- 2 internal zippered ones
- 1 small pocket closed with velcro
Arid MC Camo
The Arid MC Camo is modeled on the versatile MultiCam camouflage, which works particularly well among dry vegetation, on steppes and in semi-desert terrain.
