To ensure optimal protection in harsh conditions, we developed and extensively tested our Puez Aqua Jacket amidst the rugged mountain peaks of the Dolomites. The 2.5-layer ripstop fabric with Powertext membrane is made from 57 percent recycled materials and is the ideal companion in adverse weather conditions. With a water column of 10,000 millimeters, the material is reliably waterproof: the water column measures the pressure required for water to penetrate the fabric. Nevertheless, the jacket remains highly breathable at 10,000 g/m²/24h: this means that within 24 hours, 10 liters of water vapor can evaporate per square meter – ensuring a comfortable wearing experience even during strenuous activities.

The design and features of the jacket are fully functional for alpine hikes and trekking tours: the fully taped seams, waterproof zippers, and permanently water-repellent DWR coating provide reliable protection against moisture and rain at the front and pockets. Weighing in at just 310 grams, the Puez Aqua is lightweight – it weighs about the same as two apples when packed in your backpack.

The Puez Aqua is made from recycled materials and features a PFC-free, permanently water-repellent DWR finish. It is part of the SALEWA Committed collection, where products are produced according to independently verified environmental and social standards.
