A Hard Shell Jacket in ENTRANT® WINDTIGHT NYLON 3L outer fabric. The front closure has Descente's unique Dual Ventilation System, with two rows of zippers and a mesh fabric between them allowing outside air in, and unpleasant heat and moisture to escape. In addition to compactly storing the hood, The Para Hood System*1 allows compact storage of the hood and prevents water from pooling in wet weather. In addition, the cuffs are equipped with Block Fit Adjusters for superior hold and fit even when wet. The hem has a Cohaesive® cord lock system ※2, which allows for quicker and easier adjustment of the garment's fit.

※1 A top-opening zipper is used for quick opening of the hood when needed. The hood can be closed when not in use.
※2 Developed by COHAESIVE GARMENT TECHNOLOGY of Canada, this is a durable, integrated adjustment management system using special, welded parts to embed and integrate the cords that tighten hems and hoods into garment fabrics, making fit adjustments much simpler, more precise.
