Merkel Gear Jacket Palearctic 365 Pro

The Palearctic 365 Pro represents the definitive evolution of Merkel Gear's hunting softshell line, setting the standard for demanding field work across seasons and terrain. Building on its proven predecessor, the Pro model features a significantly quieter and more robust outer fabric, reinforced double-stitched seams throughout, and optimized mesh lining with an integrated internal pocket. Remaining 100% windproof and highly water-resistant, the 365 Pro is engineered for year-round performance in mountains and lowlands alike. The supple 3-layer laminate with integrated 37.5™ membrane delivers exceptional breathability without compromising weather protection, while the proven waffle-fleece lining manages excess body heat through specialized microstructure. Layered modularly with merino base layers and a mid-layer, this jacket transitions reliably from May through winter conditions. Cut close to the body without restriction, substantially extended at the rear for draft protection, the 365 Pro features a revised armpit articulation that eliminates the need for audible Velcro adjustments. A fully functional three-way adjustable drop-away hood with reinforced peak stows discreetly against the back when not deployed. The custom 4-way stretch softshell responds dynamically to every hunting movement, with ergonomic shoulder shaping that removes unnecessary seaming—the absence of shoulder seams keeps rain at the perimeter longer, while the outer fabric remains silent since seams are not tape-sealed. An enhanced, environmentally conscious DWR finish further ensures water beads and sheds effortlessly. Four substantial exterior pockets include redesigned upper chest pockets that function as comfortable Napoleon pockets, while an elastic retention loop secures binoculars against unwanted movement. The right pocket features an internal zip for additional access, and twin hand warmer pockets with robust sliders serve as carry solutions for the included shell pouch via soft loop lining. Extended two-way pit zips and refined ammunition holders complete a thoroughly considered design suitable for all hunting disciplines, domestic and abroad. Care: do not iron, avoid machine drying, no bleach, gentle wash at 30°C.
