Swap cold & wet for warm & dry instantly - with NEW Páramo Torres Jacket!

NEW Torres Alturo Jacket RRP £170

Overlayering jacket providing fast block insulation and functionality for high mountain activities in extreme or prolonged cold, wet conditions

  • Helmet & harness-friendly and packs into its own pocket.
  • Sized to go over a Páramo waterproof to warm quickly without removing layers.
  • Insulated top spec hood and handwarmers for all round comfort
  • Nikwax Analogy® Insulator fabric delivers reliable warmth, with down-like feel and performance that still works well when wet or over a wet jacket.
  • Compresses without damage. PFC free.

“The Alturo is one of the warmest garments tested. The fill is very soft as is the windproof shell, making it very comfortable. For maximum warmth from synthetic insulation, this is the jacket to choose.”

TGO, October 2016

“The instant warmth & comfort is a godsend. On the hill with fellow instructor friends in wind & rain - out with my Torres and over my Velez. I was very smug, warm & dry, unlike my companions!”

D.L, Cumbria

“I’ve used the Torres to put on very quickly over one of my mountain guests on Point Five Gully on Ben Nevis as she was getting pasted by cold spindrift and the transformation to relative warmth and comfort was almost instant.”

Alan Kimber AMI & IFMGA, West Coast Mountain Guides
