Trail Bum WALKER SHELL JACKET

All-season rain shell that transcends seasons

Packed with the thoughts and experiences of hikers, we designed it so that traveling trail bums can use it at any time, regardless of the season. Made with Pertex Shield Pro 3 layers for durability and comfort. It has excellent breathability and can withstand various conditions during long journeys. Whether it's a day hike or a thru hike. For wind and rain protection. While focusing on lightness, the hood, sleeves, and hem are all adjustable.

Most rainwear that claims to be ultra-light tends to have a slim, tight fit. This may be to promote weight reduction by reducing the amount of fabric used, or to reduce the flapping of clothing during trail running or cycling. The Walker Shell Jacket, on the other hand, has a "classic" relaxed fit. This is to give the garment enough room to accommodate layering, and also to reduce the feeling of stuffiness by allowing the air inside the garment to circulate properly. This fit, which can be called a return to its roots, allows it to be worn in a wide range of seasons.

It's the perfect, stress-free solution for thru-hikers who continue walking throughout the season and trail bums who can't leave the trail no matter the season.

Water pressure resistance is 20,000mm. Moisture permeability is 10,000g/㎡/day (A-1), 17,000g/㎡/day (B-1) [*]. There are no practical problems in terms of waterproofness and breathability when used outdoors.

* A-1 and B-1 are inspection methods, and the numerical values ​​are different because the inspection contents are different. B-1 tends to show higher numerical values, and it seems that Gore-Tex and other companies have often tested using the B-1 method. However, in recent years, there is an opinion that the A-1 method is a test that is closer to actual usage conditions, and the test methods adopted by each manufacturer differ.

One-pull adjustable hood

The adjuster is only in one place on the back of the head. A one-pull adjustable hood. The slightly larger hood has a three-dimensional structure with a brim that allows you to comfortably wear a rash when wearing a cap or hat. There is also a loop placed at the neck position on the inside of the hood. By hooking the adjuster onto this, you can store the hood compactly.

Pocket position that does not interfere with belts

Since we keep in mind that thru-hikers on long-distance trails can use it stress-free for six months, we also place great emphasis on pockets, which are often omitted in UL rain jackets. It is placed in a position that will not interfere with the shoulder of the backpack.

Adopts a thin Vislon zipper

The main zipper uses a thin Vislon zipper. This not only reduces the stress of opening and closing the main zipper, but also reduces the risk of it breaking down. While many UL rain jackets have waterproof zippers, this is a major feature of the WALKER SHELL JACKET.

Wide sleeves that can be rolled up

The sleeve width is designed to be wide. The sleeves of the jacket can be rolled up to the elbow. Adjustments are made using traditional hook-and-loop fasteners. Helps regulate body temperature when worn. The wide sleeves also encourage ventilation when worn.

Adjustable hem with pull cord

The hem of a rain jacket is important for regulating body temperature. When it's windy and rainy, tighten the hem to maintain body heat. When the wind and rain aren't too bad, I like to leave the hem open to encourage ventilation. These adjustments can be made using the pull cord located on the left side.

Simple and practical lightness

Because this rain jacket focuses on security during long-term use, it has a spacious body width, and we have not neglected the adjustment mechanism that is often omitted. In addition, we have minimized the number of seams to make it as light as possible. We focused on making it simple, practical and light.
