French gear brand, Cimalp, has been manufacturing quality outdoor kit since 1964. Stating that their raison d’être is ‘connecting you to the mountains’, Cimalp was founded by climber and mountaineer, Paul Sailler, who aimed to make technical and comfortable outdoor clothing more readily available. His innovations, such as adding Lycra to trousers, proved wildly successful and resulted in Cimalp becoming the leading hiking trousers brand within France in the 70s.
This beginning lead to a rich history, which has included equipping Antarctic explorers, developing new, patented materials and even winning a French Outdoor Award. Today Cimalp continues to make strides in the outdoor gear market, with a strong focus on sustainability while still producing high-quality, affordable gear for all of your outdoor adventures.
The Cimalp GUIDE PRO Jacket was designed in partnership with mountain guides to ensure the highest possible performance out on the mountains. It’s an ultra-strong, three-layer hardshell that uses Cimalp’s high-quality ripstop fabric which is layered with their 20K/80K Ultrashell membrane to create one of the most protective and durable jackets on the market.
This extremely breathable and waterproof material combines toughness with comfort, utilising a stretchy and ergonomic fit for maximum freedom of movement which is vital for both comfort and safety. The GUIDE PRO also has reinforced shoulders for when you’re carrying a heavy backpack, large chest pockets which are harness compatible, a helmet-friendly three-point tightening hood, VISLON waterproof YKK 2-way zips and a RECCO reflector.
