Jackets and down jackets

Weather changes quickly in the mountains. The right jacket makes all the difference. At Markhor, our outdoor jackets and down jackets are designed to cope with variations in temperature, wind and humidity, without weighing down your equipment. Breathable softshells, compressible down jackets, waterproof jackets: each piece is designed for performance, practicality and comfort on the move.

For an effective outfit, wear your jacket with stretch hiking pants and a breathable base-layer t-shirt to adapt your protection to the weather.

Jackets and down jackets

What type of jacket should I choose for a day hike?

A lightweight softshell jacket is ideal: it protects you from the wind, withstands light rain and offers excellent breathability. It's ideal for fast or summery mountain outings.

Is a down jacket useful in summer?

Yes. A light, compressible down jacket is perfect for breaks, evenings at altitude or bivouacs. It packs down into a small volume and provides a real thermal bonus.

Do I need a waterproof jacket for forest walks?

On wet or exposed terrain, yes. A waterproof jacket with a hood and waterproof zips will protect you effectively while evacuating internal moisture, thus avoiding the "steam room" effect.

Are Markhor outdoor jackets quiet?

Yes, we select discreet fabrics without noisy rubbing, to guarantee freedom of movement without sound alerts, useful for wildlife hiking or nature photography.

How do I care for a down jacket or technical jacket?

Wash cold with a mild detergent (no fabric softener), dry flat or at low temperature. A waterproofing spray is recommended to maintain performance.
