Minimalist mountaineers and climbers in search of a close-fitting weatherproof jacket should look no further than the Berghaus Men's Mount Asgard Smock. Gore-Tex Pro Shell fabric makes this top highly packable without sacrificing its ability to off the brutal elements. Berghaus gave this jacket a sleek, athletic fit so you won't feel like you're wearing a sumo suit when you're hanging off the rock.
- Diamond underarm gussets and articulated sleeves allow you to reach high and low with ease, without the sleeves sliding up or down or pulling on the hem
- A large, wire-peaked hood easily slides over your climbing or mountaineering helmet so you won't have to suffer through inclement weather
- The elasticized hem drawcord makes it simple to dial in the fit of this jacket to your liking, even if you only have one hand free to make adjustments
- Backcountry.com is the exclusive US retailer for Berghaus products
Bottom Line: Light, fast, and built for all that the mountain may throw your way.

I saw this jacket in the UK earlier this year and jumped on the chance to get it on sale for 280 here. Everything is designed and well thought out like they describe it, except for one thing. In their effort to save weight, they have used once panel of gore tex for the back and the arms. This creates not a "sleek athletic cut" as described, but a fit that creates a very tight and unnatural pull around your armpits and shoulders. If two panels had been used, the jacket would fit superb. It makes for a jacket that you are constantly trying to get comfortable and is very annoying. Definitely try one on if you can before you buy.
Change me.
