Quattro Fusion Jacket

The Montane Quattro Fusion Jacket has an innovative hybrid design that incorporates both 800 fill down and Polartec Alpha Direct fleece insulation. An interesting approach to solve the problem of down getting packed down and sweaty while wearing a pack. I tested the Montane Quattro Fusion during the fall and winter of 2017 and 2018 in Northern New Hampshire. This was an interesting season and we saw everything from -20 degrees with knee-deep snow, to rain and 60 degrees, then back to temperatures… Full review

Prism Bootie

Best camp bootie. Best camp bootie I've used. Have had mine for years. Ultra lightweight with a reinforcement underfoot for camp cooking, chill out at camp. Great fit, packs to nothing. All the warmth I need.  Full review

Featherlite Down Pro Pull-On

The Montane Featherlite Down Pro Pull-On provides oven-like temperatures even when the thermometer shows readings below zero. The minimalist design features help keep in the warmth while also providing essential features like helmet compatibility and waist belt clearing pockets. A great option for ski touring transitions, time on summits, or hikes during cold days. Testing Conditions: I was able to test the Montane Featherlite Down Pro Pull-On during the winter of 2016-2017. I reserved this jacket… Full review

Minimus 777 Pull-On

The Montane Minimus 777 is a 3-layer waterproof breathable jacket that eschews weight by using 7 denier fabrics for the membrane, inner and outer face (hence the name). It is spartan by design, but at only 4.7 oz still packs a hood, elasticized hem and cuffs, singular chest pocket, and water resistant zip. It would be best for trail running, thru hikers, or UL backpackers. FIT *For reference I am 6 foot, 170 lbs and received a men's large (42" chest, 34" waist). The fit of this jacket is spot on.

Spine Jacket

Montane's Spine Jacket is a Goretex shell that appears to be very well put together. It combines very light weight with essential functions—windproof, waterproof, cuff and hem adjustments, a good hood, and pit zips. The jacket has an athletic cut that limits weight and allows for limited layering underneath and only one small chest pocket. If you truly want fast and light, it's a great jacket. BASIC INFORMATION AND HISTORY A bit of history that may be of interest: this jacket is named after the… Full review
