Outdoor Research Verismo Hooded Jacket - the Perfect Down Sweater.

The Verismo is a true down sweater — narrow baffles with just enough down fill for cold late-autumn crag missions, extending your time between breaks in the hut on below-freezing ski days, and layering under or over any of your casual winter jackets.

To ensure the Verismo functions as both an outer jacket and insulating layer, the shell and lining are Pertex® Quantum fabric; 22D ripstop 100% Nylon fabric that’s lightweight, durable and weather resistant. The 650 fill power down is responsibly sourced and provides lightweight warmth that compresses into its pocket so you can clip it to your harness. The adjustable hood, tricot lined hand-warmer pockets and two internal shove-it pockets make the Verismo the perfect winter companion.

COMPETITION: Win 1 of 2 Pairs of CAMP Poles

These ultralight, foldable trekking poles, weighing only 450g per pair for the Sonic Alu and 377g per pair for the Sky Carbon, pack down to just 36cm in length and come with a handy storage bag.

The ergonomic handles with adjustable leashes guarantee comfort with gloves or bare hands in all conditions. The inner cord is plastic coated for fluid assembly and disassembly and feature a micro-adjustable tensioning system to guarantee a tight assembly with each use. The upper segment features a functional locking system that allows the poles to be adjusted from 115 to 135 cm with ease and locked securely in position. For the Sky Carbon poles, carbon fibre is used in the 4 upper segments for lightweight rigidity and aluminium is used in the lower segment for critical strength where the poles contact the ground. With three baskets to suit all conditions and durable carbide tips, these poles are the perfect companion for everything from trail running, hiking or mountaineering.

For your chance to win either a pair of the Sonic Alu or Sky Carbon, enter our competition HERE
