The Kanchen is the jacket you put on when you stop moving. Box-wall baffles hold 800-fill down at full loft with no cold seams, and a 10,000 mm face fabric shrugs off spindrift and wet snow.
The hood is insulated and adjusts with one hand, the cuffs seal with an inner gasket, and the two-way front zip lets you reach a harness or vent from below. It packs into the included stuff sack.
Dispatched within 48 hours and delivered in 3 to 7 working days. Delivery is free over ₹2,999, otherwise ₹99. Unworn pieces can be returned or exchanged within 30 days.
Two-year warranty against faults in materials and making. After that, our Manali workshop repairs at cost.

Logged at altitude
Wore the Kanchen parka through three nights at base camp. The thermometer on my pack read minus nineteen and I slept in it without shivering.
Six hours of sleet on the pass and the Rohtang shell did not wet through. The pit zips saved me on the climb.
The temperature guide on the site told me which three layers to pack for Kedarkantha in January. It was right. I used every one of them.
