Membrana 2,5 L feature
Membrana 2,5 L
A 2.5L membrane is a construction referred to as a 2.5-layer system, in which the fabric consists of an outer layer, a water-resistant membrane, and a very thin protective coating applied to the inside instead of a full lining. This construction provides good protection against rain and breathability, while significantly reducing the weight and size of the clothing. As a result, jackets with a 2.5L membrane are lightweight, packable, and often used as an emergency rain layer in hiking and trekking.

    Size: M

    The jacket has a relaxed yet very functional cut, especially around the shoulders. At a height of 175 cm and a weight of 78 kg, size M provides comfortable freedom of movement even when wearing a backpack. It is lightweight and easy to pack. In my opinion, the membrane works effectively, and combined with the underarm vents it performs great — much better than struggling under a poncho or rain cape. However, it is worth thinking carefully about what uses it is meant for. Even though the outer fabric is made in ripstop, the overall construction is rather delicate. It is not really suitable for hiking with a heavy backpack weighing 15–20 kg, because the membrane on the inside does not have sufficient protection and may wear out quickly in pressure points. On the other hand, for the shooting range or lighter outings with a small backpack of around 6 kg, especially in worse weather, it will be a very good choice. In terms of price-to-performance ratio, I believe it is a really worthwhile purchase.
