Montane Venture 2011

£220.00

The Montane Venture has been a popular multi-activity and hillwalking jacket for many years. It is a relatively stripped-down design, which means it is lightweight at 452g (men’s L). The low weight is due in part to this jacket only having two chest pockets, rather than three or more. Also it is quite short compared to others, and all this ...

Montane Sabretooth 2011

£150.00

The Montane Sabretooth has been a Trail favourite for a couple of years; it still offers an excellent range of features. The Polartec Powershield fabric has a membrane with tiny holes, which makes it very windproof while being pretty breathable. The fabric offers the right degree of insulation, so it feels reasonably warm and can be combined with a thinner ...

Montane North Star 2011

£180.00

The Montane North Star is quite an unusual design. It is longer than most down jackets so you get far better protection around your bum. At 574g it is surprisingly lightweight for its features though as this is a pretty warm duvet. There is a hood too with good insulation, a volume adjuster and a massive wired peak so it ...

Montane Venture

£200.00

The Venture stands out from most of others, not only because of its technical performance, but because it is lightweight and very packable too. It’s a great looking jacket, made from lightweight yet reassuringly durable fabric. There’s a high collar to bury your face into when the weather turns nasty, with a soft fleece lining under the chin. And most ...

Montane Atomic DT Stretch 2010

£150.00

This is the stretch version of the Montane Atomic DT 2.0 multi-activity jacket. You do pay extra for having stretch material, but the benefit is a closer fit that does not restrict movement too much and remains comfortable. The fabric is Entrant, which is a well-proven waterproof and breathable fabric. The design is close-fitting and short with a slight scoop ...

Montane Venture 2010

Montane New Sabretooth 2010

£150.00

What’s in a name? The original Montane Sabretooth soft shell jacket was made from Polartec Windpro until July 2010, but from autumn 2010 there is a new version that uses Polartec Powershield. This new fabric has a membrane, which leads to a lower weight plus an increase in water resistance and wind resistance. What’s not to like? DesignThe old Sabretooth ...

Montane eVent Halo Stretch 2009

£230.00

The Montane eVent Halo Stretch has been popular for many years with lightweight travellers. Like many Montane jackets it is made from eVent, which is top of the league for waterproofness and breathability. The weight is good, too, and there is a decent set of features. Firstly there are extra reinforcement panels on the hips and forearms for greater durability. ...

Firstly the material is the well-respected eVent fabric, which offers extremely high levels of performance. The cut allows excellent freedom of ...

Montane Sabretooth Jacket 2009

£150.00

The grey area between soft shell and fleece is spanned by the Montane Sabretooth, which is described as a ‘highly technical soft shell’ jacket as it is more wind- and water-resistant than other fleece mid layers. But most importantly it does not have a membrane so it is far more breathable than most soft shells. DesignThe Montane Sabretooth is a ...

Montane Venture 2008

£160.00

The Montane Venture won Best Value general-purpose jacket in 2007 and it is still a superb option for the price.

Montane Quick-Fire

£175.00

A scooped hem stops it riding up when at full stretch, while Velcro adjustable cuffs are excellent. The eVENT fabric felt comfortable and proved relatively rustle-free and the hood was huge, although adjusted by Velcro not drawcords. Spot-on in every department. Light and easy to carry when not required, yet comfortable and completely bomb-proof when the heavens open. And the ...

Montane Superfly

£200.00

This lightweight waterproof has a huge following thanks to the use of eVent fabric and great design. For 2007 it got a nip and tuck to improve its performance yet more. A scattering of bonded rather than stitched seams are evident to reduce bulk, while the shoulders are reinforced with a very unusual printed pattern. The most important update is ...

Montane Superfly XT

£250.00

This winter jacket is a modern classic with a good pedigree. For autumn 2007 it had a makeover with an improved hood design. The jacket is made from eVent, so it is top-notch for waterproofness and breathability. The fabric is robust too, so it’s ideal for trapping air in the worst of winter weather. The main zip gets a double ...

Better still it is made of eVent fabric, which is rated as being extremely waterproof and extremely breathable. The body has a long tail to protect the back when bent over bike handlebars.

Montane Super-Fly

£180.00

This lightweight waterproof jacket from Montane offers great ease of movement, especially in the arms, and the close fit and simple, lightweight design are good too. It’s a much shorter cut than many, though, and the collar, which is integral to the hood, isn’t as comfy as some. There’s a very spacious hood with a big peak that protects your ...
