Cloudveil F07

It may seem out of season for a down parka …that is unless you have a streak of adventure in your blood and are looking to tackle some alpine peaks in the near future! During eUPGRADER’s trip to Mount Rainier we battened down the hatches in Cloudveil’s Inversion Parka. Weighing in at a packable 32oz with 700 fill down the Inversion has baffled sleeves and abrasion resistant paneling on the shoulders and wrist areas. We chose the Inversion for its space saving features, the fact that down is a tried and true insulator during mountaineering expeditions, the oversized hand pockets and attached down hood, and its super light Cirrus nylon taffeta lining. During expeditions at altitude or the backcountry during harsh conditions their will be times when you have to stand still for certain tasks (belay, navigation, feeding). During these times it is essential to fight the chill. While on Rainier the Cloudveil Inversion’s breathable and water resistant WINDSTOPPER shell fought the brutal winds and biting cold. Outside of the essential protection the Inversion offers the level of comfort was gladly welcome in such unforgiving terrain as the glaciers of Mount Rainier.
