Snowbee Nivalis Down Jackets
Special offer:- Save 25% now on all Nivalis Jackets ahead of the colder weather
Our Nivalis Down Jackets are without doubt, the most technical garment we have ever made!
For many years, mountaineers and polar explorers, have relied on the unparalleled lightweight insulation properties of natural feather down to keep them warm in extreme conditions. The problem is that down loses most of its thermal properties as soon as it gets wet. Many manufacturers have tried to avoid this by either treating the outer shell with a DWR finish, or using feather down with a hydrophobic treatment to repel water and prevent clumping. Both methods have their limitations, so we thought…why not put the down in totally waterproof pockets to protect it? Problem solved!
The natural down filling contains 90% duck-down, 10% feathers and uses a fill power of 700 for total warmth, while the waterproof membrane has a hydrostatic pressure resistance (waterproofness) of 5000mm to keep you dry and also provides total wind resistance. The main front zip and the two side hand-warmer pockets use waterproof zips and there is a fully adjustable, 3-panel hood, made in the same insulated material as the body. Inside the jacket there are two deep pouch pockets at the bottom, for mobiles, wallets etc. For complete weather protection, there are Velcro adjustable, elasticated cuffs and two internal bottom hem adjusters with ‘toggle-loks’.

Available in sizes: S, M, L, XL, XXL
Colour: Dark Olive
After the success of the Nivalis jackets, we were constantly asked for a 'collar' version, without the hood and also for a Ladies version – so here they are!
11936C Nivalis Jacket – Collar version
Designed as a general purpose leisure jacket, where a hood is not required, but equally suitable as a mid-layer garment under a waterproof outer shell, which does have a hood. Built to the same, exacting standards as the original Nivalis with the same style and technology built-in!

Dartmoor Range
Our new Dartmoor fleece jacket and gilet combine a stylish design with the very latest fleece material technology, to provide an impressive performance in even the harshest conditions!
Made with the very latest 300g double-brushed, anti-pill, double Polar fleece making it super-soft and super warm. This fabric exhibits many of wool's qualities but weighs a fraction of the lightest available woolens. It is hydrophobic, holding less than 1% of its weight in water, so retains much of its insulating quality even when wet. It is machine washable, dries quickly and makes a great alternative for those who are allergic or sensitive to wool. Polyester fleece is extremely warm because of its structure. The pile surface provides space for air pockets between the threads, and this goes for both sides of the fabric. Because it is moisture-resistant, it can keep wearers warm even under extreme weather conditions, whilst still breathable, to keep you dry when things warm up. Our new range features two stylish garments:
11927 Dartmoor Fleece Jacket
A stylish new jacket design featuring a high collar and inner storm flap under the front zip to keep out draughts. The two side pockets have pocket flaps reinforced with faux leather for additional style and wear protection. On the left chest is a further zipped pocket for a mobile phone or wallet.
