What is the Latok Alpine GTX?

The Latok Alpine GTX is a lightweight shell jacket that provides reliable waterproof protection without being overly techy. However, this doesn't mean it lacks functionality or features!

It's perfect for many types of outdoor activity, from alpinists who enjoy fast paced adventures to mountain hikers and outdoor ice climbers.

What is it made of?

The Latok Alpine GTX is constructed using 40D recycled Gore-Tex® Pro 3L Most Breathable, with a Gore® DWR for extra protection. Despite being recycled, this material performs no less than any other Gore-Tex® fabric. It's fantastic in the rain yet more sustainable than regular Gore, making it beneficial for both the wearer and the planet!

To break it down, it's a three layer (3L) fabric with added durability, breathability and extra DWR (Durable Water Repellent), designed to withstand abrasion on rough surfaces like rock. It offers a great level of waterproof and windproof protection whilst still being extremely breathable. Thanks to its versatility, it can even be worn for general mountain use! It feels comfortable in changeable environments whilst minimising the accumulation of sweat, keeping you cool during high output activity.

The material feels really smooth to touch. It's soft yet still robust. However, if you're not a fan of crinkly jackets, this one does make a little noise as you wear and move around in it - this can be common with Gore-Tex® shell jackets.

The eagle-eyed amongst us may spot the seam taping inside the jacket. Gore-Tex® Pro seam taping helps ensure that no water can seep inside through the stitching. It's finished really neatly and doesn't add much weight or bulk to the garment.

What are its features?

At the top of the jacket is a helmet compatible hood that offers plenty of room for climbing helmets, so if the heavens open in the middle of an ascent, you have the option to embrace some extra shelter. The hood is a TriPoint hood, meaning it has wind collar, crown and face adjustment points, allowing you to really optimise the fit for maximum protection from the elements. The adjustment system uses concealed internal cord locks and haptic, mitt friendly pullers, so you can adapt everything without taking your gloves off. The hood also has a wired, stiffened peak at the top, which helps to direct rain away from your face.

The sleeves are articulated, meaning they are designed with more room under the arm. This helps stop the sleeve from riding up when the arm is fully extended. Articulated sleeves provide improved freedom of movement and arm lift - perfect for tackling technical climbs or steep scrambles. The cuffs are extended to provide more shelter for the hands. They have a simple hook and loop adjustment system to adapt the fit around gloves and mitts.

You'll find two-way fully venting pit zips underneath the arms, which are secured with YKK® AquaGuard zips and haptic pullers, making them easy to get hold of - you won't need to take the jacket off just to undo them. AquaGuard zips are taped zips that offer enhanced water resistance around the entry.

There are two pockets strategically placed on the chest for easy access. They have wide openings and are also fastened with YKK® AquaGuard zips. The pockets are super roomy, fit for carrying all types of goodies, such as a map, GPS or those all-important hill snacks.

Two more pockets can be found inside the jacket, one zipped pocket and one mesh. These are ideal for storing valuables you might want to keep a little closer to you, such as keys, a mobile phone or some emergency cash.

The main entry to the jacket uses a centre front zip with a lower snap fastener for extra security, or ventilation when you're getting a little too warm. A fleece lined chin guard sits at the top of the zip, which feels super smooth and soft against the skin.

Dual-sided rear hem adjusters allow you to cinch in the jacket further to keep the wind out. The adjusters are mitt-friendly, so you won't need to faff around taking your gloves off to use them if you're out exploring colder climates.

How does it fit?

The Latok Extreme comes in a regular fit. Regular fit offers a little extra room, maximising freedom of movement and allowing you to wear your own effective layering system underneath, without feeling restricted.

For best performance:

With any new waterproof, we advise you to wash the product with the appropriate tech wash and reapply a fresh DWR to activate the technology and achieve the best performance from day one.

How does waterproof technology work?

Modern waterproof technology often uses a waterproof membrane sandwiched between layers of fabric and a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) on the outer material.

What is 'wetting out', and how does it affect my waterproof?

DWRs commonly get worn down from contact, whether with your backpack or your fingertips. When the DWR wears down, your waterproof product may begin to 'wet out', meaning the water stops beading off the surface and starts to soak in instead.

While the waterproof membrane will prevent the jacket from leaking or water from getting inside, when your jacket wets out, moisture (from sweat or condensation) can build up on the interior, causing it to feel moist.

There's a common misconception that, when this happens, the product is faulty because people believe the waterproof membrane is leaking. However, this is most likely not the case; you simply need to clean your jacket and reapply the DWR.

The easiest way to spot when this is happening is to see if water beads off the material's surface or soaks in.

PFC/PFAS usage in modern waterproof and DWR technology

Most modern DWR technology avoids the use of PFCs/PFAS chemicals.

PFC-free means perfluorinated chemical-free. Companies such as Gore-Tex® are also beginning to eliminate these harmful chemicals in their waterproof membranes with technology like Gore-Tex® ePE.

What are PFC/PFAS chemicals?

Perfluorinated chemicals (PFCs) are also known as forever chemicals and cause environmental harm, similar to PFAS.

PFAS means per- or poly-fluorinated alkyl; these are a group of industrial chemicals that also cause detrimental harm to the environment, often through product and garment manufacture.

These chemicals can't break down, so once they reach nature (usually via factory water waste), they stay in the ecosystem and contaminate living organisms, working their way up the food chain. PFAS and PFCs are suspected carcinogens and have been known to affect mammal reproduction and hormone production. Therefore, many leading brands in the outdoor industry are now prioritising cutting out the use of these chemicals entirely to contribute to a more responsible manufacturing process.

How to care for a new waterproof product

PFC/PFAS-free waterproof products still perform effectively. However, they will require more frequent care (washing and reapplying a DWR) to ensure consistency. We stock various care products for this, which you can browse here. If this is your first time doing this, check out our easy how-to guide by clicking here.
