The Expedition 8000 is our warmest jacket built for the most extreme conditions, whether you're summiting an 8000m peak or crossing the polar ice caps. Filled with 850FP goose down and built with robust and weather resistant Pertex® Quantum Pro outer fabric, this jacket has been developed to retain heat in the world’s coldest environments.
A downproof Pertex® Quantum lining and boxwall baffle construction with differential cut maximise loft to improve heat retention. The down extends into a helmet compatible hood, which has a wired peak and adjustable fit to keep the heat in and the weather out.
Providing refuge in harsh conditions, the jacket has space to accommodate bulky layers and the elbows have been optimised for articulation. Featuring a two-way front zip with storm protection flap, multiple pockets, reflective prints and mitt compatible oversized features, this jacket has been refined to cope with the demands of expeditions.
How to measure.
Chest: Measure the full circumference of your chest just below your armpits.
Waist: Find the top of your hip and measure the full circumference around your body.
Arm length: Measure horizontally from the centre of your back, across the shoulder, over a naturally bent elbow and down to the wrist fold.
While all our garments are sized to these measurements, you will find that the cut on jackets designed for use in more extreme environments will be slightly more generous in the expectation that these designs will be used with additional/thicker midlayers. If you plan on using a jacket like this with fewer layers beneath it, please keep this in mind when selecting your size.
All garments are designed and fitted to suit their intended end use. See below for a general description of our fit categories:
Regular: Neither slim nor loose. Regular fit items are the perfect balance of form fit and ease of movement.
Slim: A streamlined silhouette. Cut trim following the contours of the body. Expertly placed articulation of seams and the use of stretch fabric ensure maximum freedom of movement in these close-fitting items.
Relaxed: Our more generous fit. Cut loosely through the body allowing for ease of movement and additional layering.
Expedition: Designed specifically to accommodate the layering system and equipment required for high altitude and polar expeditions.
