The Torres Gilet is a wear anywhere, do anything garment. It can be used for overlayering over an Páramo waterproof garment or worn directly over a base layer. Either way it will deliver fast insulation when needed for the body’s core torso area without encumbrance on the arms. It packs down into its own breast pocket for transporting, yet the moisture-repellent, synthetic 100g fill means this low pack size can deliver a high warmth-for-weight ratio even when wet.
