The Aspire 3L Trench coat uses the very breathable Ascentshell membrane. Falling around mid-thigh in length, this jacket is roomy through the hips with an adjustable waist so you can get just the right fit. More suited to everyday use, I'd reccomend this as an around town jacket.

    I've had this jacket for several years now and I never want to have to replace it - it's that good. This thing has kept me dry on countless occasions in very heavy downpours. Now, for me I don't love pit zips and don't find I use them often enough to need them so if you need pit zips look at the Beta SL or the Beta AR. But for me, this is the perfect jacket. Its lightweight, fits incredibly well, layers a puffer underneath great and isn't overkill around town and gets the job done on trail. I've reapplied the DWR several times over the years which makes it good as new as well.

    Fit tip:
    True to size

    This jacket is a beautiful design, a good length if you’re looking for a longer raincoat and will keep you bone dry! It is on the heavier side, so I wouldn’t be recommending it for longer hikes. It’s also a slightly different fit to most of our other raincoats, as it has more of a T shape and doesn’t have separate sleeve panels. Because of this, it has more of a sloping shape on the shoulders and less of a defined and boxy look. It fits slimmer on the hips as well so I would recommend a size up if you’re on the curvier side.

    Fit tip:
    Slimmer fit and rounded shoulders.
