Info
The Mountain Equipment Changabang is ideal when you need a jacket that can provide protection from the wind and rain as well as waterproofing for the worst of conditions.
Great for mountain expeditions and climbs, this uses 3 layer GORE-TEX fabric, making it breathable, windproof and waterproof.
The ergonomic cut gives a shape that allows for freedom of movement while in the elements.
Features also include a laminated storm flap and a hood with a wired peak (climbing helmet compatible), making this great not just in the rain, but able to cope with snow and conditions that are common in high altitude regions.
Perfect for mountan wear, this jacket also battles the problems of space with four large pockets, a taped pocket bag as well as a ski pass pocket on the arm for multisport use.
Warm, breathable, and technical, without excess weight slowing it down, this modern cut jacket can see you through from novice to pro on the slopes, hills and mountains.

Truly Excellent, 26 February 2010

An excellent jacket. Very much no-nonsense design which nonetheless has everything you would need on a jacket like this. What's more, it's just really well thought through!
The hood is probably the best on the market. It is extremely comfortable and moves with the head perfectly. The wired peak can be adjusted so that it doesn't obstruct the view. The only issue I have is that it sits less well when you wear glasses.
Other nice features are the map-sized pockets and that you can pretty much adjust all cords with one hand.
Definitely recommended!
