Sherpa Adventure Gear Varun Jacket - Review
On a recent trip to Nepal we paid a visit to the head office of Sherpa Adventure Gear and spoke with founder and CEO Tashi Sherpa. We were able to see the entire Sherpa Adventure Gear line of products in one place. Like a kid in a candy store I made a mental note of the most intriguing products for you, our readers.
High on that list was the Sherpa Adventure Gear Varun Jacket. This is a Primaloft jacket with 100% recycled polyester shell and softshell side panels. These soft shell panels are strategically placed to give you an increased range of motion and also let the heat escape when needed. The front and back of the jacket is filled with 40 grams of Primaloft Eco insulation for warmth where it matters. The "Eco" following the word Primaloft means, as you likely guessed, that this Primaloft insulation uses post-consumer recycled material to create an earth-friendly insulation. Approximately 6 plastic bottles were used to insulate this jacket. Add to that the 100% recycled polyester shell fabric and you can see that Sherpa Adventure Gear's priorities shine through on this product.
