The Bastion Jacket is our new improved belay jacket. Climbing technical pitches in winter that require periods of intense aerobic activity followed by sitting still while your partner follows, requires a nice warm jacket to put on over your other layers and recover for the next pitch. While originally intended for this type of scenario, the Bastion can be worn in any outdoor scenario where packable warmth is needed.

Read Climbing Magazine's Review of our Bastion Belay Jacket here.

We took the same yarn NASA engineers use to reinforce their spacesuits, and wove it into a ripstop grid on the nylon shell to increase abrasion resistance and tear strength. A thin waterproof/breathable coating on the inside adds another layer of weatherproofing. Utilizing Climashield's continuous filament insulation allowed us to remove quilt lines and the cold spots that go with them. Because APEX has a higher warmth to weight ratio than staple insulations, it allowed us to keep the weight down as well.
The jacket packs down to the size of a gallon ziplock bag.
