What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I took the Eiger Nordwand Pro SO Hooded Jacket on a multi-pitch alpine route where the weather shifted fast, and I needed something that could handle wind, light rain, and serious movement all in the same pitch. The body-mapped construction kept me comfortable through the technical sections without ever feeling like the jacket was working against me, and the glove-friendly cord pullers were a detail I didn't know I needed until I was belaying in the cold."High-altitude conditions don't follow a schedule, and the Eiger Nordwand Pro SO Hooded Jacket from Mammut was built for the moments when the weather decides to remind you of that. Tested by Mammut athletes on some of the most demanding terrain in the world, this jacket exists in the space between softshell comfort and hardshell protection, covering both without compromising either. The body-mapped construction pairs biobased Polartec Power Shield Pro across exposed areas with recycled double-weave nylon featuring 4-way stretch through high-sweat zones, putting the right material exactly where each one performs best. A helmet-compatible hood with a reinforced peak handles the elements from above, while the 2-way YKK VISLON zipper with fleece-lined chin guard manages comfort and ventilation at the front. Shaped cuffs with grosgrain tab extensions and custom cord pullers throughout mean every adjustment is accessible even with gloves on, because on routes that demand this jacket, that's exactly the situation you'll be in.
