The Flak and Shok jackets are designed for steep technical climbing where freedom of movement and durability are paramount.
The eVent fabric has a heavyweight nylon face, ideal for robust action in the harsh, abrasive environment of vertical granite. Yet the garments themselves – thanks to their minimalist design – are very light, so that difficult moves can be made without feeling encumbered.
Both jackets are cut to allow full freedom of movement. The sizing suits climbers with fit and conditioned physiques, but is sufficiently generous to allow for layering.
The Flak jacket features centrally accessed Napoleon-style pockets for easy access/retrieval and safe stowage (e.g. of gloves, 'biners, etc.).
The Shok jacket's pockets are placed to the outside of the chest in the conventional fashion.
Flak and Shok jackets share the same cut and are uncompromising all-weather mountaineering garments. Light and tough, they have only what is needed - a full mountain hood with wire stiffener, for use with a helmet, plus two roomy chest pockets.
