The Montbell Eldo Jacket is a warmer, more durable version of the UL Thermawrap Jacket. Consider this your fully loaded general outdoor solution.
The Eldo Jacket is backcountry savvy and city stylish. Cheat the chill with this leading-edge, mid-weight insulated jacket that sports a highly windproof exterior, 100-wash rated DWR and quick to dry synthetic insulation.
Full length YKK zipper has a wind blocker behind the zipper. Two hand warmer pockets, a micro-fleece collar lining and articulated elbows increase comfort. One internal zipper pocket provides secure storage. To make this jacket even warmer, an extra layer of nylon has been utilized on the outside of the Eldo to combat single-quilt “cold spots” that occur along traditional sewing lines.
Exceloft synthetic insulation acts like down, providing the best combination of insulation, lofting, durability and compressibility. Exceloft retains heat and maintains its lofting properties 10-20% better than other leading synthetic insulations.
Unlike down, Exceloft retains 80% of its insulation value when wet! Exceloft absorbs less that 1% of the water that it comes in contact with, making it highly resistant to saturation and extremely fast drying.

Exceloft™ - Montbell's Exceloft™ insulation uses 8-denier polyester threads as a structure to intertwine with extra thin 0.7-denier threads that add more air pockets and resilience. As a result, Exceloft™ products rival the warmth and weight of other synthetic insulations. Exceloft™ retains less than 1% of their weight in water. Exceloft™ will keep you warm even when wet.
