Concept
At Karpos, we learned from the very beginning to listen and embrace the advice that mountaineers brought back to us from their experiences in the mountains and on the most difficult walls in the world. While everyone provided their own feedback, they all shared three requests: lightness, protection, packability. Our research and development department has worked on these three aspects for years, culminating in the Vinson Evo Jacket. The jacket is made with hybrid construction; the K-Dry fabric ensures waterproofness equal to a 20,000 mm water column and 70,000 g/m2/24h breathability, while Thermo Fleece panels on the hood, on the cuffs and inside the sleeve ends, and on the back inside provide comfort and warmth. Warmth is ensured primarily by the PrimaLoft® Silver Active insulation — 100 grams on the sleeves and hood and 130 grams on the rest of the garment. A comprehensive set of technical features in just 650 grams of jacket, which can be quickly stashed in your backpack when not in use, thanks to its compactibility.

The take me anywhere jacket
27/02/2024
I bought this jacket as I was interested in a hybrid jacket I could wear on a colder day without having to take an extra waterproof layer and I'm very happy I got my hands on one of these. It takes a lot of the stress out of the prep and planning as it gives you the confidence to head out and about knowing you will be protected. Some nice features are the fleece lined pockets and hood along with a nice fleeced section around the neck. Nice touch that. The sleeves on the jacket are slightly longer on the top to protect the back of your hands when the rain finally comes. Living in Scotland, the weather can change very quickly and not having to think when to adjust layers or change kit is a great way to take time to enjoy the journey a little more. Really pleased with this jacket and would highly reccommend to anyone who wants to just get out there and not worry about planning correctly as much.
