MONTURA MOUNTAINWEAR - MK GUIDES REPORT
MAGIC JACKET WINDBREAKER
I appreciated its handiness, lightness, and compactness, as well the easiness to load it in any small place inside the rucksack or take it hung to the Mountain Bike thanks to the practical velcro. Even being in the “light” category it has a more performing jacket features. I also used it during a sailing boat trip in Norway with strong wind and the protection was remarkable, just some small problems with the cap, but it’s acceptable for a light jacket.
TERMIC T-SHIRT m/l
I was at the first experience with Montura underwear and it’s been a pleasant surprise. They’ve been able to conjugate comfort, design, lightness, perspiration and heat. Finally we can wear items that don’t foul-smell after ten minutes you wear them.
LIGHT VERTIGO PANTS
These pants have been a Montura war horse for many time and finally it’s been added a wedge to the horse, modification that avoids the unstitching or material breach that almost surely happened before doing large and wide movements like splits, etc

WARM SKIN T-SHIRT
We just left and we already feel hot, we sweat and this tee shirt made of cotton is already soaked, we almost reached the moraine and the fresh air from the glacier give us a bit of relief !!! « The whiplash injury » that we get makes us to give up the excursion for the day after !
This is a disastrous scenery that had happened to everyone of us who go to the mountains, but today, thanks to the new materials used by the best companies in the market we can reasonably defeat « The whiplash injury ». Montura is one of those companies that use the COLMAX technology. Thanks to this material the sweat, by capillarity, is moved away from the body to the external. We constantly remain dry and thanks to the humidity on the external fibers, also fresh. Besides the COLMAX dries more rapidly than other materials and almost in half time respect to cotton. The items that I’ve used have fully this characteristics so much so I also used them for the bike excursions where is noted that sweating and air impact are definitely significant.
The MONTURA technology doesn’t stop just in the technical materials utilization but also in the cut and the choice of the sizes (finally we have small sizes where you stay in one inside and not in two like other items that costs a lot). It’s really a very good line that covers all mountain activities, from ski to rock climbing.
Just a small defect that I personally notice is the massive utilization of black colour, certainly sober but a bit boring. But the truth is that perhaps it’s a retailer’s fault, because looking at the new MONTURA’S catalogue you can see that there are so many more colors. So courage, we can dare and order more colorful items, the pictures would take advantage of that

GUIDES WINDBREAKER
Very warm, well full-fashioned, and technical at the right point. Its weak point is the waterproof, something that from my point of view should be revised.
KAMAOR VEST
Just perfect. It makes you feel warm and it wears very comfortable.
OSLO FLEECE
Very warm. Perfect for low temperatures.
MERINO T-SHIRT
Excellent, both the length and the yield.
