Pioneer Camp Men's Water-Resistant Parka

Dark grey or navy in the tissue, the parka feels weighty where the cloth holds the insulation. The length sits with a presence you notice at the door. It has a hood and enough pockets to sort gloves, maps and a phone. The outer sheds light rain and the quilted fill keeps the bulk steady without fussy shaping.

The trade-off is mobility. The insulation and the longer cut ask for a little room in the pack and for looser arm movement when you reach high. If you want something slim for active climbing or running, this is not the piece for that task. For slow days in damp wind it settles into its role without fuss.

One of 33 on the insulated jackets rail in the Pioneer Camp collection. It also answers to jackets, men's jackets, parkas. A size letter describes the garment rather than a body, and the way we keep the figures current is set out on how we update the catalogue.
