Overview

The Velez Jacket is an ideal piece for active outdoor enthusiasts.

If you enjoy hiking, cycling, climbing, or backpacking, you need the men’s waterproof Velez Jacket that will keep you dry in the rain and stop overheating while you are working hard.

The clever ventilation and functional design, combined with Nikwax Analogy Waterproof fabric, provides optimum comfort, excellent weather protection, warmth and cooling in one efficient jacket.

The men’s waterproof Velez Jacket has excellent ventilation, a fully adjustable hood and practical pocketing.

Temperature regulation is provided by two dual phase chest pockets and forward facing upper arm vents combined with a lightweight mesh lining.
Field of vision and weather protection is assured by the fully adjustable, helmet compatible, wire peaked “halo” hood.
Secure pocketing allows you to keep maps and valuables safe without impeding the use of packs or harnesses.

Nikwax Analogy Waterproof fabric is more than just breathable, it is directional.

This means it is capable of moving liquid water away from your body and not just water vapor.

It is essential to avoid a build-up of water in your clothing system when you are working hard, as too much retained moisture will lead to your body rapidly chilling when you stop and rest.

In conventional clothing systems, approximately 20% of sweat production is dealt with effectively, leaving the remaining 80% trapped inside.

Nikwax Analogy garments are unique, in that they pump out this 80% of liquid water and allow it to drain away; you are left feeling dry and comfortable.

To understand the difference between directionality and breathability, you can read more here.

Nikwax Analogy Waterproof system keeps the wearer dry, and mesh pump liner allows more airflow around the jacket
Two large “dual phase” secure chest pockets also work as vents:
- Torso pocket/vent is accessed via an outer zip
- OS map-sized chest pockets are accessed via inner zips. The right hand pocket has a secondary zipped internal pocket for small valuables.
Forward facing, mesh-lined arm vents with locking YKK zips for quick ventilation
Helmet compatible wire-peaked ‘halo’ hood provides excellent field of vision and one-handed adjustment
The hood can be rolled away securely using a hook and loop tab on the rear of the hood and passing it through the hanging loop of the jacket.
Reflective trim placed around the jacket provide a body outline allowing clear visibility of the wearer in poor conditions.
Design is harness, pack and helmet compatible; all adjusters operate with a single gloved hand for quick and precise adjustment.
Scooped hem with draw-cord adjustment allows for close fit when weather protection is needed

Choose the Velez Jacket for intense activities in warmer temperatures…

The lining used throughout the jacket minimizes the still air trapped between the layers of fabric allowing use across a wide range of operating temperatures and conditions. Further cooling options are provided by forward facing arm and large dual phase torso vents, a two-way front YKK zip, and sleeves designed to expose the forearms if additional cooling if required.

Designed for activities where cooling and condensation removal are as important as weather protection, it has mesh reinforced shoulder and back panels, allowing the user to carry a pack without risk of water ingress in wet weather.

Practical features, including a fully adjustable wire peaked halo hood, glove-friendly zips and secure storage, ensure protection and functionality.

How will your Páramo^® garment outperform breathable membranes?

Nikwax Analogy fabrics are not only extremely breathable, they are directional too. This means that water, both liquid and vapor, is directed outwards, ensuring your insulation remains protected.

Although breathable membranes allow moisture vapor to pass through them, they do nothing to transport liquid water. Therefore, when the production of sweat exceeds the Moisture Vapor Transmission Rate, or when the external temperatures drop, condensation (the change of water from vapor to liquid) will build up in breathable membranes.

Nikwax Analogy is so durable you could puncture a Páramo waterproof with pins, remove them, and still stay dry in the rain! Unlike coated or membrane-based garments, our directional clothing can be easily repaired, without compromising future performance.

In what weather conditions can I use my Velez Jacket?

Your Velez Jacket has been rigorously tested in the Leeds University Rain Room to resist at least four hours of heavy rain, which is approximately five times the intensity of normal heavy rain.

The system provides the insulation you require when working hard throughout the year.

Great for hiking, cycling, climbing, and backpacking.

How do I care for my Páramo waterproof?

Regularly wash it with Nikwax Tech Wash^® to remove dirt and revive its water repellency. If, after washing, the outer fabric absorbs water (it does not run off in beads) it is time to reproof your garment with Nikwax TX.Direct^®.
