All-season rain shell that goes beyond the seasons

Packed with the thoughts and experiences of hikers, we thought that trail bums on the road could use it at any time, regardless of the season. Adopts Pertex Shield Pro 3 layers for durability and comfort. It has excellent breathability and is suitable for various conditions on long trips. Whether it's a day hike or a thru hike. For protection from wind and rain. While focusing on lightness, the hood, sleeves and hem are all adjustable.

Many rainwear that advocates ultra-lightweight tends to adopt a slim tight fit. This is to reduce the amount of fabric used to promote weight reduction, or to prevent the clothing from flapping during trail running or cycling. The Walkershell Jacket, on the other hand, has a 'classic' relaxed fit. This is also to provide room for layering, and to reduce the feeling of stuffiness by circulating the air inside the garment. This fit, which can be said to be a return to the origin, makes it possible to wear it widely regardless of the season.

It's the perfect stress-free solution for thru-hikers who keep walking through the seasons and trail bums who can't leave the trail regardless of the season.

Water pressure resistance is 20,000mm. Moisture permeability is 10,000g/m2/day (A-1), 17,000g/m2/day (B-1) [*]. There is absolutely no practical problem with waterproofness and moisture permeability in the outdoors.

* A-1 and B-1 are inspection methods, and the numerical values ​​are different because the inspection content is different. B-1 tends to produce a larger numerical value, and it seems that Gore-Tex and other companies used the B-1 method for inspection in the past. However, in recent years, there is an opinion that the A-1 method is closer to the actual usage conditions, and the inspection method adopted by each manufacturer is different.

One-pull adjustable hood

There is only one adjuster at the back of the head. One-pull adjustable hood. The slightly larger hood with a three-dimensional structure with a brim can be easily worn even when wearing a cap or hat. In addition, a loop is placed at the position of the neck inside the hood. The hood can be stored compactly by hanging the adjuster on it.

Position of pockets that do not interfere with belts

Since we have in mind that through-hikers on long-distance trails can use it without stress for a long time of half a year, we also place importance on pockets that are often omitted in UL rain jackets. It is placed in a position where the shoulder of the backpack does not interfere.

Uses a thin count vislon fastener

The main zipper uses a thin count vislon zipper. This not only reduces the stress of opening and closing the main zipper, but also reduces the risk of malfunction. While there are many UL rain jackets with waterproof fasteners, this is a major feature of 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. The adjustment is an orthodox hook-and-loop fastener. Helps regulate body temperature when worn. The width of the sleeves also encourages ventilation when worn.

Adjustable hem with pull cord

The treatment of the hem of the rain jacket is important for temperature regulation. When the wind and rain are strong, the hem is squeezed to maintain body temperature. When the wind and rain are not so bad, I want to open the hem and encourage ventilation. These adjustments are made with the pull cord located on the left side.

Simple, practical and lightweight

Because it is a rain jacket that emphasizes security in long-term use, the body width is roomy, and the adjustment mechanism that is often omitted has not been neglected. On top of that, in order to make it as light as possible, the number of sewn parts is reduced as much as possible. I was particular about simple and practical lightness.
