Mountain Equipment Tacul Men's Jacket

Mountain Equipment's Tacul Men's Jacket is a lightweight waterproof shell designed for trekking and backpacking in the mountains, combining two weights of Drilite to make it both packable and durable enough for regular use with a pack.

The Tacul is a hybrid shell with two different types of Drilite+ waterproof fabric to give the best combination of performance. Drilite+ 3-layer 50-denier fabric is used over the shoulders for greater durability, especially with a pack, and Drilite+ 2.5-layer 50-denier fabric is used through the rest of the jacket for comfort and low weight. These fabrics have a 20,000 mm hydrostatic head, meaning they are properly waterproof whilst retaining excellent breathability for all-day comfort.

The Tacul shares the same well-proven Alpine fit as much of Mountain Equipment's shell range and has a protective and adjustable Mountain Hood. Whilst easily coping with severe conditions, it is not quite as large as the helmet-compatible version found elsewhere in the range.
