AB-TEX Tempest Waterproof Jacket - Ranger Green - Highlander
The Highlander Tempest in Ranger Green is a technical jacket designed for trekking, outdoor use and unstable weather conditions. The official Highlander product sheet confirms it is a waterproof jacket with a breathable AB-TEX membrane, available in Ranger Green. Certain features you subsequently added, such as belt loops or knee pad pockets, do not correspond to this jacket and appear to come from a different product sheet.
Waterproof and breathable AB-TEX 3-layer fabric
The standout feature of the Tempest is its AB-TEX 3-layer tri-laminate fabric, designed to protect against rain while remaining breathable. Sources consulted confirm a waterproofing rating of 5000 mm and a breathability of 5000 g/m², making it a jacket well suited to active outings in changeable weather.
Underarm and back ventilation for added comfort
The jacket also stands out for its ventilation solutions, with bidirectional underarm zips and a rear ventilation panel. This combination helps to dissipate heat more effectively during exertion and improves comfort on a waterproof jacket worn while hiking or during activity.
Concealed hood and protective storm flap
The Tempest is fitted with an adjustable hood that stows in a storm collar, along with a bidirectional main zip protected by a storm flap. The side pockets with flap also reinforce protection against wind and water.
Taped seams and field-ready adjustments
The fully taped seams contribute to overall protection against moisture. The hook-and-loop adjustable cuffs and the cord-adjustable hem help improve the fit and better block air or water infiltration depending on conditions.
