Description:

Ultimate storm-proofing for wet winter weather in the city and beyond, the Vostok Storm Parka is designed to render you invincible in the teeth of the the strongest gale and heaviest downpour.

The Vostok is a smart four-pocket parka that offers ultimate waterproofing functionality and features, combined with a light layer of insulation creating a feeling of protection and comfort in a truly distinctive city-ready package.

Made with a 100% recycled polyester Italian shell fabric that is seam-sealed and fully waterproof to 20,000 h/h, unlike the other insulated jackets in our range which use down, warmth in the Vostok is provided by PrimaloftⓇ Gold thermal insulation, the best in synthetic insulation technology. PrimaloftⓇ Gold has been selected for this storm parka for its ability to retain heat even when saturated. The Vostok is also Adaptive Layering System compatible, so it can be easily combined with a down gilet or jacket to provide an even wider range of comfort and warmth in extreme conditions.

YKK Vislon zippers, Merino storm cuffs, plenty of pockets, pit zips and a fully adjustable snorkel hood with reinforced visor round off a highly versatile performance parka.

WARMTH

Expedition-grade weather protection graded to -5°C. Adaptive Layering compatibility allows for the addition of a down mid-layer which adds more insulation when needed in colder conditions.

WATERPROOF

20,000 mm hydrostatic head with a C-zero durable water repellent finish. Fully seam sealed.

WINDPROOF

Windproof to 0.2 CFM, the hardshell fabric and full seam sealing means that this jacket will protect you from the harshest wind speeds.

PRIMALOFT INSULATION

Insulated with 100% recycled PET PrimaloftⓇ Gold, designed to provide efficient and effective insulation coupled with extreme breathability, to cater specifically for an active lifestyle.

100% RECYCLED

Made with a 100% recycled polyester twill weave waterproof fabric, developed exclusively in Italy by Majocchi for Shackleton.

BREATHABILITY

Fabric membrane has highest breathability rating of 20,000 g/m2/24hr, allowing sweat and moisture to be transported away from the body and out from the parka.

ADAPTIVE LAYERING COMPATIBLE

This parka is Adaptive Layering compatible, allowing for the incorporation of a Ross, Ronne or Rothera down mid-layer, enabling you to boost the Vostok's thermal range.

Hood Visor

Hood has been designed with a visor reinforced with wire so that it can be closely shaped around the face to protect from extreme wind and snowfall.

Microfleece Lined Collar

Collar is lined in micro fleece for comfort against the face and chin.

Placket Pocket
