Highlander® Cyclone Pro Waterproof Jacket

Highlander® Cyclone Pro Waterproof Jacket

Built for extreme operational weather, the Cyclone Pro pairs a 30 D mechanical-stretch ripstop shell with Prot3X-LTE technology to deliver 20 000 mm hydrostatic head waterproofing and outstanding 15 000 g/m²/24 h breathability. Fully taped seams, waterproof zips and a helmet-compatible, wire-peaked hood guarantee comfort and dryness without sacrificing the lightweight 484 g (size L) packability you need in the field.

Aim of the Product

To provide professional-grade rain and wind protection that remains breathable and highly packable for military, law-enforcement and expedition users operating in severe climates.

Target Audience

• Special forces, infantry & police units
• Search-and-rescue, instructors and guides
• Backpackers, bushcrafters and mountaineers who insist on tactical durability with low carry weight.

Product Use

1. Stow jacket in rucksack lid or cargo pocket; deploy when rain threatens.
2. Don, adjust Velcro® cuffs, draw-cord hem and three-way hood pull for a seal against wind-driven rain.
3. The waterproof front zip lets you vent heat without compromising protection; highly breathable membrane minimises internal moisture build-up.
4. Rank slide (Ranger Green & HMTC) accepts insignia for uniform conformity.
5. When the storm passes, shake off water; fabric’s PFC-free DWR beads moisture for rapid drying before re-packing.

Glossary & Useful Info

Hydrostatic Head (HH) – laboratory water-column test; 20 000 mm means fabric endures a 20-metre column of water before leaking.
30 D Ripstop – “Denier” rating for yarn thickness; 30 D gives ultralight weight while rip-stop grid prevents tear propagation.
Breathability 15 000 g/m² – moisture vapour transmission rate; higher = better sweat management.
PFC-Free DWR – durable water repellent that avoids per- and poly-fluorinated chemicals, safer for environment.
Prot3X-LTE – Highlander’s triple-layer extreme membrane: face fabric / TPU membrane / tricot backer for strength, stretch and weather-proofing.
