Kaitu 3-in-1 Jacket
The Kaitu 3-in-1 Jacket is a flagship product in VAUDE’s Trek&HIKE hiking series. Designed for low-altitude mountaineering and mid- to long-distance trekking, it is suitable for low-intensity outdoor activities and everyday wear, emphasizing the perfect combination of practicality and functionality. The Kaitu 3-in-1 Jacket consists of an outer shell made with VAUDE’s exclusive Ceplex waterproof technology and a Primaloft® insulation middle layer. The entire garment not only offers excellent waterproofing and breathability but also provides significantly better warmth than similar market products thanks to the inclusion of Primaloft insulation.
Ceplex Waterproof & Breathable Fabric Technology
Ceplex is a high-tech waterproof and breathable fabric independently developed by VAUDE. It features a specially structured irregular microporous material where water molecules (rain) cannot pass through the pores, while gas molecules (sweat vapor) can easily escape, achieving the fabric’s waterproof and breathable function. Due to Ceplex’s unique structure, it delivers outstanding waterproofness and breathability, meeting the needs of all outdoor activities.
Primaloft Insulation Technology
PrimaLoft® high-performance insulation was originally developed to meet the needs of the U.S. military and is currently the best-insulating material on the market, offering comfort and protection in changing weather conditions. VAUDE’s Kaitu uses an environmentally friendly PrimaLoft® (with 60% recycled materials), providing unparalleled warmth even in damp environments, along with all-over body comfort.
Simple Design, Basic Outdoor Sport Silhouette
“The Kaitu adopts a basic outdoor sport silhouette, allowing for the rational combination of the jacket and insulation inner layer based on different outdoor environments. Design details prioritize simplicity, using concealed stitching for a minimalist yet stylish look, making it suitable for low-altitude mountaineering, trekking, and travel.
Two-Way Wearable Inner Layer
The PrimaLoft® insulation layer offers excellent moisture resistance, warmth, and breathability. The insulated inner layer features a simple design style and can be worn on both sides, adding a new way to wear it and increasing its practicality.
