Prioritise durability with reinforced fabrics in high-wear areas, such as shoulders and elbows, to withstand abrasion from rocks and ropes. Look for a helmet-compatible hood, harness-friendly pockets, articulated sleeves for mobility, and ventilation features like pit zips. Adjustable cuffs and hems, plus weatherproof zippers, enhance performance in demanding conditions. 

Climbing jackets are tailored for vertical adventures, featuring harness-compatible pockets, helmet-compatible hoods, articulated sleeves, and reinforced areas for durability. They prioritise mobility, breathability, and ruggedness, unlike general waterproof jackets that may lack these technical climbing-specific features. 

Lightweight jackets (300–400g) are ideal for fast, alpine climbs where every gram matters. For technical or harsh conditions, a slightly heavier jacket (up to 500g) with extra reinforcements and features like additional pockets and durability is better for long-term performance and protection. 

Two-layer jackets can work for casual climbs or short routes in mild weather, but they lack the durability and breathability of three-layer options. For technical or multi-day alpine routes, three-layer jackets offer superior protection, breathability, and ruggedness needed in challenging environments. 

A climbing jacket should fit snugly but allow for layering underneath and unrestricted movement, especially in the shoulders and arms. Test the fit with a harness and helmet to ensure all features remain functional. Articulated sleeves and gusseted underarms improve mobility for reaching and stretching on route. 

Wash your jacket only when necessary, using a technical detergent and avoiding softeners. Spot clean stains, air dry in a ventilated area, and never iron or store it wet. Proper care preserves waterproofing and fabric integrity, ensuring your jacket performs well over time.
