Match a reversible baselayer to your needs – if you run hot, try a reversible Cambia Tshirt next to skin; if you feel the cold, opt for a reversible shirt that covers a wider temperature range. Both remove sweat to keep you more comfortable. Try the classic Men’s Trail or Ladies’ Camino Shirt. Team it with Cambia underwear to help your Directional system work most effectively.

Assess the waterproof Analogy jacket that best suits your personal preferences – the Alta II combines a fuss-free styling with practical walking features, the Cascada offers a classic long line with double storm flaps, the newest Vista is a contoured, shorter jacket, the Velez Adventure an over the head smock style.

Combine with our best-selling waterproof Cascada Trousers, for all day comfort on the hill, removing the need for overtrousers, with ¾ side zips for effective ventilation on the move.

Carry a Torres overlayer in your pack for warmth and safety on a chosen or enforced stop. Put on over your waterproof or windproof, it provides immediate warmth for minimal space in the pack. The new Torres Jacket is sized to go over your walking jacket, with a full hood and cosy handwarming pockets.

 

The Páramo system

Each Páramo garment works superbly on its own but combines effectively with others in the range, for fast and efficient temperature control to suit your physiology and activity as well as outside conditions.

Páramo clothing combines more functions per clothing layer than a conventional layering approach – cutting the weight you have to carry and reducing garment changes on the hill.

Crucial for walkers, for example, Páramo waterproofs provide warmth too – and really effective ventilation features switch the warming function on and off, giving greater versatility.

And our reversible baselayers really do give you two garments in one – one side keeps you warm, the other cool – fantastic versatility for travelling, or even just a day on the hill.

Fine features

A host of carefully thought-out garment features make Páramo the outdoor enthusiast's choice:

• All our waterproofs and windproofs offer fully adjustable hoods with a wired peak, that move with you to maintain excellent vision in the worst of conditions;
• All waterproof jackets provide as minimum, an easily accessible pocket to hold an OS map plus handwarming pockets;
• Zip pulls and adjusters are designed to be easily located and friendly to gloved hands;
• Look out for jackets with two foam strips in the back, for extra comfort and to guard against ‘sweaty back syndrome’ when load carrying.
