7MESH Guardian Terra Jacket & Pants

If the mountain doesn't compromise, neither should your equipment.

At the same time, high breathability and unrestricted freedom of movement ensure that you can concentrate fully on the line - on the climb as well as on the steepest descents. For long days in the backcountry, aggressive lines and conditions where the material not only has to work, it has to deliver. No excuses. No compromises. Just the mountain and your line.
