A water resistant and compressible mid-weight down-insulated jacket. The Senja Jacket is ideally suited to general mountaineering, Himalayan trekking and everyday use in cool or cold conditions.
For many, the Senja will strike the ideal balance as one down jacket to do it all in the mountains, warm and protective enough in freezing conditions but still sufficiently light and packable to be carried. Particularly well suited to backpackers, mountaineers, and skiers, it’s a versatile jacket for everything from icy summits to valley boulders in the winter months.
With 220g of high-quality down fill, the Senja sits just below Mountain Equipment's ever-popular Lightline Jacket in terms of warmth, but is appreciably more insulating than their lightest down jackets, such as the Frostline and Earthrise.
The DRILITEⓇ LOFT outer fabric is completely windproof and highly water-resistant, easily dealing with snow or an unexpected shower. The fit allows room for a variety of layers underneath whilst remaining thermally efficient, and the Mountain Hood is easily adjusted on the move, providing essential extra coverage in icy winds.
An inner zipped security pocket keeps valuables safe, as well as ensuring that spare camera batteries and other essentials stay warm.

Down 700 - Down is the finest insulator that Mountain Equipment have. Its warmth to weight ratio, compressibility, long lifespan, and softness are yet to be matched by manmade insulations. For all but the most serious expeditions, duck down is a great choice for both insulated clothing and equipment.
Down Codex® - The Down Codex® is Mountain Equipment's multi-award-winning certification scheme that considers the environmental, ethical and animal welfare matters relating to their down supply chains. It is grounded in comprehensive and transparent auditing that ensures traceability and quality.
Drilite® Loft - Drilite® Loft is Mountain Equipment's exclusive range of highly water repellent fabrics used in their insulated clothing and equipment. The original Drilite Loft, introduced almost 30 years ago, was years ahead of its time: a highly breathable, lightweight, and very water repellent fabric. Those three hallmarks continue with their modern Drilite Loft fabrics.
