Snugpak Arrowhead Back Jacket

What Sets This Model Apart from Ordinary Insulated Jackets?

• Paratex Outer Material (Nylon) - Water-repellent, windproof, breathable. The texture is smooth and dense, holds its shape well.
• Removable Insulated Hood on a zipper with adjustment and raised collar - separate protection for neck and head.
• Quilted Construction with Horizontal Stitching evenly secures the insulation and prevents shifting.
• Comfort Temperature 0°C, Lower Limit -5°C - specific figures, not vague claims.
• Weight Around 790 g (Size M) - compact for transport, doesn't overload your gear.
• Adjustable Velcro Cuffs, deep insulated hand pockets, internal zippered pocket, left chest pocket, underarm ventilation vents.
• Technical Cut with reinforced zones on shoulders, elbows and cuffs - for freedom of movement during active wear.
• The jacket dries quickly, which is critically important in field conditions.

Material and Construction

The outer layer is made from Paratex nylon - a material that Snugpak uses in its tactical and mountain models. In the photos you can clearly see the smooth matte surface without pronounced textures - it doesn't rustle, doesn't accumulate dust and doesn't get wet on brief contact with moisture. Inside is Softie® insulation that compresses to a compact size and doesn't settle after prolonged storage. The central fastener is covered with a flap that additionally blocks drafts. Sleeves are straight-cut, with reinforced zones on the elbows.

Who Is This Arrowhead Suitable For and In What Conditions?

The jacket is designed for three real-world usage scenarios. First - as a mid or outer layer in cold weather during hiking and hunting trips, when you need thermal insulation without excessive bulk. Second - tactical and field operations where freedom of movement and reliable wind protection are critical. Third - everyday carry for those who spend a lot of time outdoors in winter and want a compact insulated jacket from a trusted British manufacturer. The size range M-XXL allows you to find a fit for different body types, including over base layers of tactical gear.
