The Outdoor Research Mentor jacket is a robust, lightweight, full-force shell intended for serious mountaineering pursuits.

  • Gore-Tex® 3L Pro Shell fabric is tough, extremely breathable and durably waterproof and windproof
  • Gore Micro Grid lining is a thin, low-denier, low-density woven fabric that allows the shell to slide easily over mid layers
  • Reduced seam quantity and thickness saves weight and offers excellent abrasion- and snag-resistance and great breathability
  • Shoulders, arms and sides are reinforced for additional durability
  • Dual-pull adjustable hood fits over a helmet
  • 2-way front zipper with internal stormflap, dual drawcord hem and rip-and-stick-adjustable cuffs seal out the elements
  • TorsoFlo™ double-sliding side zippers open fully from hem to armpits for unparalleled ventilation with poncho-style coverage
  • Articlated elbows increase comfort
  • Features hand pockets and Napoleon pocket with water-resistant zippers; zippered internal pockets include an earphone exit port

Imported.

    Comments about Outdoor Research Mentor Jacket - Men's:

    If you're going up against some nastiness, like say an ice climb running with water, or an adventure in the rain, this is the tool for you. When a soft shell isn't going to cut it, break out the Mentor.
    Normally this kind of water protection isn't breathable, but with the pit zippers, you can get all the air flowing you need. The pockets seem to be in the right places so you don't get your items "trapped" by your harness. You can also cinch up the hood to keep the wind and rain out.
    I really like my Mentor jacket and secretly hope the weather will be bad sometimes, just so I can wear it.

    Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
