The itinerary for your ice climbing tour of Norway has been finalized and you just need to go over the gear checklist on more time. Softshell and midlayer? Check as you have the Mammut Women's Biwak Light Jacket. This innovative piece of outerwear exploits new insulation technology to give you a lightweight warm and breathable puffy-style jacket without the extra puff factor. You can squeeze through small spaces or layer up when snow eddies cloud your vision and you can do stop-and-go all day long without getting overly heated or sweaty.On the outside the Biwak combines water- and wind-resistant Pertex Quantum fabric in the front and back with Polartec Power Stretch Pro side panels. Your innards stay toasty but you can still comfortably reach high for a hold or lean over to secure your crampon. Throughout the front and back Polartec Alpha insulation works its magic to keep you warm without adding weight. This insulation uses high-loft low-weight fibers in a low-density knit to give you a highly breathable insulation so you won't get sweat-soaked and then shivery when you stop mid-way up the mountain; make speed hiking a new sport and not fall prey to overheating as this jacket lets the outside air in to keep the heat at a minimum.Don't be fooled by the puffy pigeonhole--the Biwak Light sports a slim silhouette so you can layer over it when you need waterproof protection. Thumb loops at the end of high-reach sleeves accommodate overhead movement. Two side pockets and a chest zip pocket give you on-the-go storage options so you don't have to stop and drop your pack every time you want a snack.
Back in April of 2012 as Tom Boonen's incredible solo breakaway closed in on a fourth victory at the Roubaix velodrome his smiling face was on every camera and on that face the then-unreleased Radarlock Path Polarized Sunglasses. The Radarlock is perfect for hellishly long days in the saddle like Paris-Roubaix where rapidly deteriorating weather necessitates the adaptability found in quick lens changes. This subtly redesigned Radar combines the lightweight O-Matter frame and superlative fit and lens coverage of the original while adding in Oakley's Switchlock technology to ease the difficulty of changing out lenses. As evidenced by its name the Radarlock is characterized by Oakley's Switchlock technology which allows you to change out the lens quickly and efficiently. Due to the Radar's unique Polaric Ellipsoid shield lens geometry the mechanism is a little different than what you'd find on the Jawbone or Fast Jacket but very simple nonetheless. Simply engage the slider switch on the inside of the left temple and pivot the earstem towards the inside of the lens to open the clamp. This relieves all of the mechanism's clamping pressure which enables you to slide the lens out of the frame groove and the notches on the opposing temple. If it seems like all of the switching and hinging is over-engineered to simply change out a shield lens you'd be correct. But remember that every Oakley design that leaves their Foothill Ranch factory must not only meet but exceed the rigorous standards set by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) . So not only must Switchlock ensure easy lens swapping it must also ensure the lens remains snugly in place to protect your eyes at high impacts like these.What good would safety standards be without near-perfect clarity? Oakley's patented High Definition Optics (HDO) boasts some of the best clarity in the industry. Part of the beauty of Switchlock is that the mechanism evenly distributes the clamping force over the...
