From back country to day trips, the Mountain Hardwear Ampato men's jacket offers durable, waterproof, highly breathable protection. New Dry.Q Elite fabric works immediately to keep you cool and dry.

  • Dry.Q Elite fabric's air-permeable membrane allows air—not just moisture—to pass outward through the fabric, so you stay dry on the inside as well as the outside
  • The always-on air flow doesn't wait for you to heat up before beginning to breathe; breathability and comfort start the minute you put on the jacket
  • Dry.Q fabric prevents clamminess and helps keep you cool and dry
  • 2-layer design features a hanging mesh lining that adds wicking comfort
  • Fully adjustable, attached hood; micro-chamois-lined collar guard prevents zipper chafe
  • Pit zippers let you quickly and easily control core temperature, expelling excess body heat as needed during high output activity
  • Adjustable cuffs and hem
  • Mountain Hardwear Ampato jacket features zippered pack-friendly hand pockets, a chest pocket and an interior zip security pocket
  • The fit allows you to layer comfortably

Imported.

      I purchased this jacket on sale. Even as full price is a great purchase. THe jacket fulfil its promises about confort, fit, and more important, water and wind proof qualities. I recommend this item for avid hickers in temperated weather.

            Comments about Mountain Hardwear Ampato Rain Jacket - Men's:

            This hooded jacket is perfect for Winter rains. Simply put, it does a great job of keeping the rain out. With the full lining, it is usually warm enough without layering. The 3 zippered pockets are secure and the internal pocket is good for keeping a cell phone dry. The draw strings are efficient in adjusting the fit. This jacket does not have a downside.

                I love this jacket. I use it mostly to go on morning hikes with my dog, weekend backpacking trips and at work when it's raining since I work outdoors. I did my research on breathable jackets and so far this jacket has lived up to it's claims.
