climbing jacket

[MattyF]

Its about time for a new jacket all zips on my stretch air are broke! and its getting a bit tatty so what do people like and why?

Im looking at the stein but it doesnt look very breathable. The schoeler stihl and husky jackets dont look to bad but i liked the cut on the stretch air.....but not impressed with the zips breaking!

New zips. Your local tailor will do it very much cheaper than a new jacket. Is the stretch air waterproof and breathable?

stein all the way. vents under arms seem to keep me cool. i do find myself climbing with less layers though.

I probably will it will make a nice leylandii climbing jacket!

the stretch air one isnt water proof but its very breathable and well cut for climbing.

Just been looking at the stein i think i will give it a go.

I got the stein, very good so far, good fit, breathes well, zips still work,

What's the sizing like on the stein? I take a medium/large most of the time but for climbing, I would need longer back and sleeves. Comments?

your really a baboon?

They come up quite small so you should go for the large, they are quite long in the back anyway.
