    Full Description

    The Mountain Equipment Lhotse Jacket is the ultimate shell for dedicated mountaineers who demand full protection and reliability in the harshest alpine environments. Designed for year-round mountain use, the Lhotse is crafted from 3-layer GORE-TEX Pro 80D fabric with a new ePE membrane and PFAS-free DWR, delivering unbeatable waterproof and windproof performance. Its 100% recycled polyamide shell reflects Mountain Equipment’s commitment to sustainability without compromising durability. With a precise alpine fit, pre-shaped sleeves, and an articulated design, the Lhotse offers full freedom of movement for climbing, scrambling, and technical mountaineering. Built to withstand everything from winter storms to summer deluges, this multi-award-winning jacket is the go-to choice for those looking for a year round, versatile and protective waterproof shell.

    GORE-TEX is now a totally PFC free waterproof membrane designed by Gore to be more sustainable and cut out harmful long chain 'forever chemicals' found in normal PTFE waterproof membranes. The ePE membrane is a thinner than older GORE-TEX and GORE-TEX PRO, which results in a softer and more supple feel. It doesn't have the same stiff 'cardboardy' feel as older Gore membranes. The biggest performance difference you are most likely to notice is the DWR treatment. Unfortunately flurocarbons are some of the best, most hydrophobic chemicals out there. Getting rid of them does hit performance so you will notice that the nice 'beading' effect disappears quite quickly. Don't worry your GORE-TEX jacket is still waterproof, but to maintain the beading effect you will need to top up the DWR more regularly.

    The Lhotse Jacket is loaded with technical features to enhance performance in exposed conditions. The fully adjustable Mountain HC Hood with Cohaesive cordlocks offers exceptional coverage and visibility even over a helmet, while the seamless face panel ensures long-lasting comfort. Storage is ample and secure with Stratum Storage: two large chest pockets, a laser-cut laminated sleeve pocket, and a laminated internal pocket—all equipped with YKK moulded AquaGuard zips. Ventilation is easily managed with 2-way underarm pit zips, and the front zip is a 2-way AquaGuard for improved harness compatibility. Dual Cohaesive hem drawcords and laminated adjustable cuffs seal out the elements. Weighing just 510g, this is elite-level protection in a streamlined, mountain-ready package.

    Mountain Equipment Lhotse Jacket Review

    I spent quite a lot of time researching what jacket to buy given the price point. The jacket had brilliant reviews in the walking magazines and had pretty much sold out everywhere which was a good indication of how good it was I thought. I have been out walking in the Yorkshire Dales where I live in it for the past couple of months, through the winter in all kinds of conditions. Its handled torrential horizontal rain, blizzard snow and freezing fog and mist all as if it was nothing. The Lhotse is absolutely bombproof , the build quality as you would expect at this price is outstanding , the pocket zips and hood adjustment all brilliant, although its not been warm enough to use the pit zips yet. It was the first time I have bought from Facewest and received excellent customer service, will definitely buy from them again. Absolutely delighted with my purchase.
