You don't mind taking an occasional beating at the hands of Mother Nature, which is why you need a jacket that feels the same way. Zip up the Millet W3 WDS Composite Jacket and make your way up the unforgiving face with the knowledge that you're protected by Gore-Tex Paclite and Windstopper fabrics.

  • Composit construction means that a variety of protective materials are strategically located for the most effective protection
  • Gore-Tex Paclite waterproof breathable fabric is lighter, thinner, less crinkly, and more packable than other Gore-Tex fabrics
  • WindStopper material blocks ridgeline gusts, breathes well during your ascent, and is water resistant to shed light rain and snow
  • Flex Comfort ergonomic cut combines with preformed elbows for a natural, articulated fit
  • Underarm vents lend airflow and increase evaporation when you work up a sweat
  • Large underarm zip vents help you regulate temperature during high-output ascents

Bottom Line: A little punishment is a good thing every once and a while.

Talk shop with all the gear freaks out there: ask 'em questions, upload/browse photos, and give your 2¢.

i can not tell you from personal experience, but as its labelled uses include all kinds of climbing and mountaineering i would say you shouldnt have a problem...i would trust millet to have designed this jacket with helmet use in mind, especially at that price.

Expensive and Unfunctional

I got this jacket a year ago and still curse the day I bought it. It's so useless and expensive. It combines all the negatives of the different materials.

1. the paclite won't do you any good if it starts raining cause you'll get wet at the arms after a couple of minutes, followed by your chest and back
2. it's not warm at all cause the paclite is really thin and at the neck it's not possible to tighten up without the hood on
3. you can't wear a heavy backpack cause it will kill the paclite

the only pro of this jacket is the good look but seriously, go either for a pure softshell or a good hardshell (Goretex Active, stay away from paclite!).
