Overview

The Velez Adventure Smock is for outdoor enthusiasts who enjoy high energy activities in a variety of temperatures.

If you enjoy activities such as hiking, cycling, climbing, or snow sports you need the versatile Womens Velez Adventure Smock jacket that keeps you dry during activity and stops you from overheating.

The Womens Velez Adventure Smock provides robust and reliable protection from the elements, removes perspiration, and manages your temperature in a broad spectrum of activities.

The Womens Velez Adventure Smock has excellent ventilation, a fully adjustable hood, and practical pocketing.

  • Two-way twin front zips with inner, snapped baffles allow for maximum venting even on the move.
  • Field of vision and extra weather protection is assured by the fully adjustable, stowable ‘halo’ hood with wired peak.
  • Secure pocketing allows for storage of maps, compass and valuables, and handwarming when needed.

Nikwax Analogy Waterproof fabric is more than just breathable, it is directional.

Analogy Waterproof
This means it is capable of moving liquid water away from your body and not just water vapor.

It is essential to avoid a build-up of water in your clothing system when you are working hard, as too much retained moisture will lead to your body rapidly chilling when you stop and rest.

In conventional clothing systems, approximately 20% of sweat production is dealt with effectively, leaving the remaining 80% trapped inside.

Nikwax Analogy garments are unique, in that they pump out this 80% of liquid water and allow it to drain away; you are left feeling dry and comfortable.

  • Two-way twin front zips with inner baffles and upper arm vents, allow venting for maximum temperature control – even on the move.
  • Double-layer lining at the lower and upper back, and shoulders, provides comfort for technical rucksack use.
  • Fully adjustable roll-away ‘halo’ hood with wired peak provides excellent field of vision and protection.
  • Fully articulated shoulders and elbows, and a cropped front, ensure maximum freedom of movement.
  • One large ‘dry’ zipped chest pocket and one inner ‘dry’ zipped pocket for storage of maps, compass and snacks. A small secure pocket within the chest pocket can store essential items.
  • Reflective trim on the front and back of the hood, cuffs, and on the front and back chest seams give maximum visibility.
  • Drop tail with hem draw-cord protects the lower back.
  • Hook and loop cuffs with BiteTab closure provide easy adjustment and push up function.

Choose the Velez Adventure Smock for weather protection, sweat management and temperature control combined with optimum functionality.

Nikwax Analogy Pump Liner mimics the action of animal fur – pushing liquid water outwards to protect you from rain, condensation and perspiration, whilst protecting your insulation. This is combined with a Directional microfiber outer to deflect wind and rain.

Excellent venting capabilities allow use of the smock across a range of operating temperatures, conditions and activities, even whilst wearing a rucksack.

Practical features, including a fully adjustable stowable hood, well-placed reflective flashes, and double layer lining at the lower and upper back and shoulders, ensure further protection and comfort – from backpacking to snow sports.

How will your Páramo® garment outperform breathable membranes?

Nikwax Analogy fabrics are not only extremely breathable, they are directional too. This means that water, both liquid and vapor, is directed outwards, ensuring your insulation remains protected.

Although breathable membranes allow moisture vapor to pass through them, they do nothing to transport liquid water. Therefore, when the production of sweat exceeds the Moisture Vapor Transmission Rate, or when the external temperatures drop, condensation (the change of water from vapour to liquid) will build up in breathable membranes.

Nikwax Analogy is so durable you could puncture a Páramo waterproof with pins, remove them, and still stay dry in the rain! Unlike coated or membrane-based garments, our directional clothing can be easily repaired, without compromising future performance.

In what kind of weather conditions can I use my Velez Adventure Smock?

The Velez Adventure Smock has been rigorously tested in the Leeds University Rain Room to resist at least four hours of heavy rain, which is approximately five times the intensity of normal heavy rain.

Because the fabric system offers significant insulation when the ventilation zips are closed, this garment works best in cooler conditions.

Great for hiking, cycling, climbing, and snowsports.

How do I care for my Páramo waterproof?

Regularly wash it with Nikwax Tech Wash® to remove dirt and revive its water repellency. If, after washing, the outer fabric absorbs water (it does not run off in beads) it is time to reproof your garment with Nikwax TX.Direct®.
