What is the Katla Pull-on?The Katla Pull-On is a fantastic all-round fleece. Designed for moving fast in mountainous environments right through to lowland activities. It’s incredibly soft and comfortable next to skin, so it works well as an extra layer over a t-shirt on summer nights or as a warm mid-layer in colder conditions. It wicks away sweat, resists odour and is exceptionally comfortable. Perfect for Trail Running, Hiking and fastpacking!
What is it made from?The Katla Pull-on is made from Montane’s own Thermo Lite fabric. This fabric is a polyester and elastane mix. Polyester provides excellent durability whilst the elastane adds that vital bit of stretch. The Katla Pull-on also has a brushed back so it sits comfortably next to your skin, helps wick moisture and dries exceptionally quickly. The only downside to this fabric is that after a day of hard use, it tends to smell. Montane has countered this by applying a Polygiene permanent anti-odour treatment to the fabric, making the Katla Pull on the perfect layer for multi-day trips - no need to wash at the end of every day!
What are its features?The close-fitting collar on the Katla helps protect your neck and retain body heat in cooler conditions, while the ¼ length zip allows you to dump heat when working hard. On the days when you need extra protection and coverage, the cuffs adapt into emergency windproof mitts, especially handy in case you forget to pack your gloves! Popping your thumbs through the loopholes will stop your sleeves from riding up, making it a lot easier to slide a layer on during colder days.
As with all Montane garments, the seams are flat locked to reduce uncomfortable chafing, especially useful when you're wearing the Katla next to skin.
How does it fit?The Katla Pull-on is designed to be low bulk and to fit closely to the body or to be layered with other non-bulky garments, making it a snug fit. Increasing the flexibility and comfort of this fleece even further is Montane’s articulated fit around the arms, reducing the amount the fleece rises when your arms are above your head, but also results in a better fitting, more comfortable garment that layers better underneath additional layers.
