Torrid Apex Jacket Review

22

The EE Torrid Apex Jacket is an insulated jacket that uses synthetic fill to keep you warm. However, it is not very breathable. We also learned that it costs a lot. If you’re looking for a lightweight jacket for cold weather, you’ll want to look elsewhere. This Torrid Apex Jacket review will discuss what to look for. If you’re in the market for a new jacket, consider the features we love about this model.

EE Torrid Apex Jacket is insulated with synthetic-fill

A synthetic-fill jacket is a lightweight alternative to a down-filled jacket. Synthetic insulation has the added benefit of maintaining its insulating properties even when wet. While synthetic fill can be a bit bulkier, the EE Torrid Apex jacket is lightweight and warm, making it ideal for cold weather conditions. The jacket has elastic cuffs and hem, allowing gloves to be fitted over the sleeves.

The EE Torrid Apex Jacket weighs just less than two pounds and provides excellent warmth for its weight. It’s built with 2oz/yd2 CLIMASHIELD(TM) APEX synthetic insulation for added warmth and moisture resistance. The jacket’s fabric is smooth ultralight Nylon that also provides wind protection. It also comes with a water-repellent finish.

It is oversized to accommodate layers.

This insulated jacket is made by Enlightened Equipment, known for producing lightweight quilts. The brand has recently released a new line of synthetic jackets. The company’s Torrid Apex is among the lightest on the market and uses Climashied Apex insulation to keep its wearer warm and comfortable during three-season use. The jacket is also customizable, allowing customers to choose the outer material, inner lining, and hood.

The Torrid Apex Jacket is a favourite of long-distance hikers, as it offers wind protection and moisture resistance. This lightweight jacket weighs 7.75 ounces (about 240 grams), and its 2oz/yd CLIMASHIELD APEX synthetic insulation keeps wearers warm even when damp.

It is not super breathable.

The Torrid Apex Jacket is lightweight but not super breathable. The synthetic insulation isn’t very breathable, but it holds insulating properties even when wet. The hem isn’t super deep, so you should be able to fit a pair of gloves inside it. The zipper isn’t super-snappy, but it’s small enough to avoid snags. Its lightweight construction helps it stay warm.

The Torrid Apex Jacket weighs less than two hundred grams, making it an ideal insulated jacket for cold climates. This jacket is perfect for backpackers and thru-hikers who want to reduce weight without sacrificing warmth. The jacket is made with two-ounce continuous filament CLIMASHIELD(TM) APEX synthetic insulation that maintains heat even when damp. It is also made from smooth, ultralight Nylon fabric that offers wind protection and water-repellent treatment.

It is expensive

The Torrid Apex Jacket is an excellent lightweight jacket designed for extreme temperatures. Made from APEX synthetic fabric, it is light but surprisingly warm. It has a full-length zipper and a deep hood. These features help it remain warm even when it’s wet. Its hood is deep, which is essential for ultralight quilt users. It also allows you to wear gloves over it, which is another excellent feature.

The Torrid Apex Jacket is designed for backpackers and thru-hikers looking for lightweight insulation. It has 2-oz/yd2 synthetic insulation and is designed to reduce weight without compromising warmth. It is available in over 15 colour options and can be ordered without a hood.

It needs a hem adjustment.

The hem on the Torrid Apex Jacket needs to be adjusted to fit correctly. The jacket is relatively lightweight and feels like a warming blanket when worn. It is best for people with short torsos and slim-hipped bodies. The jacket may not fit properly if you have an hourglass or pear-shaped figure. It is also not adjustable from the waist to the hips.

The Torrid Apex Jacket is slightly oversized to accommodate layers, but it packs small enough for trail use. It also has an unbeatable warmth-to-weight ratio. You may have to adjust the hem if you wear a hooded vest.
