UF PRO – Delta Eagle Jacket

THE WIND BREAKER. UF PRO RELEASE THE GEN.2 DELTA EAGLE JACKET.

As the weather turns colder and wetter you really do need to get the very best performance from your clothing system, and the UF PRO® Delta Eagle Jacket is a bomber-tough, all – purpose soft shell jacket for almost all weather conditions and low temperatures.

material-construction

The UF PRO® team have revisited their original Delta Eagle and brought things fully up to date using the most advanced fabrics, material and technology currently available.

The latest iteration of the Delta Eagle jacket is the perfect choice for cooler and damp environments due to its special material construction. The jacket is made out of a high quality breathable ePTFE based softshell material, which is lined on the inside with an insulating microfleece.

The face fabric of the jacket is highly windproof and water-repellent, which means it will protect you against wind-chill and even light drizzle; in truly horrendous wet weather conditions it can even be worn as an insulator under one of their Monsoon waterproof rain jackets.

hoodharness

The Delta Eagle jacket is equipped with a new generation of the UF PRO® Hood/Harness® system. The system comfortably connects your head with the hood without bringing it directly in contact with the laminate.

This also means the hood follows all your neck movements and your vision is never compromised, and since the laminate isn’t directly in contact with your head, the air flow and your ability to hear aren’t limited.

The hood is made out of a very light weight, waterproof 3 layer micro-grid laminate which makes it a perfect emergency hood when caught outdoors in rainy weather. And when you don’t need it, the hood can easily be stowed away into the collar.

chest-pockets-access

The jacket offers 8 pockets in total so it is easy to store most of your “everyday carry” gear in it. All pockets are highly functional and easy accessible; the big chest pockets can be accessed from two sides. So if for instance you only have your right hand free, you can still easily access the left chest pocket.

The 4 arm pockets are perfect for stowing away your smaller stuff, which you may need to access quickly. They are also mesh lined, so in case it gets too hot you can open them and use them for additional mechanical venting, and the larger two inner pockets can be used to store your valuable stuff like your wallet, or bulkier gear, like gloves.

airpac-insert

Finally, for better wear comfort while carrying a backpack and in order to avoid so called “thermal bridges“ between your skin and the outside material, the Delta Eagle has integrated air/pac® inserts in the shoulder area.

If you’re updating your clothing system this year then the Delta Eagle Gen.2 softshell jacket should be high on the list of your priorities.

    zippers……I like the design though.

  2. SamHill says:

    It looks great except for a few too many zippers.

  3. babola says:

    The Uf-pro’s well known zipper obsession strikes again.
    Shame because the jacket is actually quite good.

    • SSD says:

      That’s common across Europe.

        It’s like the 80’s but in a foreign language.

      • D.B. says:

        Haven’t noticed that, I must say.
        While we Europeans tend to have many fashion garments made with zippers, there won’t be as many featuring on a single piece of wardrobe.

        This UF-Pro jacket has no less than 8!…if I counted correctly, and all of them “in your face”.

        • Patrick says:

          9! You forgot the middle one. Don’t cheat them out of a zipper!

          • D.B. says:

            You got me there 🙂

          • D.B. says:

            But both of us missed the 10th one…the hood zipper!

            Some 2017 Eurovision contestant out there might be gettting few ideas about his new stage outfit…Does it come in gold color sprinkled withsparkling dust?

            Madness!

      I don’t know….if they can do this jacket in red and throw in a white glove: a thriller for sure.
