Vanir-LT Hard Shell Waterproof Mountain Pant

Not tried in the mountains yet but the fit is excellent :-) and they are very well made. (Tried Berghaus 7000 salopettes and nowhere near as good a fit). Will update once used in the mountains.

I have been nothing but impressed with this jacket since it arrived (very promptly) through the post. I like things that have been clearly designed and thought out- This ticks all of those boxes. Its obviously been made for the climber or mountaineer that is try to save as much weight as possible, but still wants something robust. It does feel like you could drag this over granite and it wouldn't fair too badly.

Usual I prefer a full length zip on these types of jacket as they're a little easier to get on while standing on small belay ledge etc. However, I haven't found any problems with this so far. The half length zip works really well with a harness and the hood will tuck under a helmet. The cuffs are thicker (and therefore hold in place better) than other Montane or Arcteryx windproofs I have had in the past.

The only thing I think could be better is if it stuffed into its own pocket (it actually doesn't have any pockets). The annoying thing is that pockets on these jackets aren't normally used as the material is a bit too flimsy to hold heavier things in place- therefore the lack of pockets was probably designed in by the Jottnar Team.

Another great product. :-)

Trousers with braces fit and form well for a long legged bloke. I'm looking forward to testing them.

A comfortable and good fitting pair of trousers. The fabric does it’s job and kept the chill out at -15 but also breathed so no overheating. A great product.

Using the salopettes in Japan for snowboarding, love how the breathe well and the button design for the gaiter and cuffs are really convenient for my boots. Great fit, fantastic bibs.
