18971 BETA SL HYBRID JKT W

Description

Specially designed as an emergency protection against the elements, the BETA SL HYBRID W is a technical jacket for women that is popular because it is ultra light and compact. Very easy to carry in your bag, this jacket is handy when you need it.

Highly waterproof and breathable, this jacket takes advantage of the technical advantages of the GORE-TEX® N40r membrane with Paclite® technology. It thus provides complete weather protection and a high degree of breathability. Remarkable for its lightness, it weighs only 315 grams! Weight and volume are indeed important factors in performance. With a less abrasion resistant fabric to avoid unnecessary weight and volume, this jacket is intended to be used only temporarily in an emergency. However, the fabric has a mini ripstop structure to add some abrasion resistance. With a focus on performance, this jacket is not lacking in functionality.

Indeed, many details have been added to its structure.
