The Sherpa Adventure Gear Lakpa Rita Jacket was designed specifically for alpinists who climb the world’s biggest and most difficult mountains. The requirements by alpinists for a wind and waterproof jacket that breathes well and packs down to almost nothing are the same attributes that hold true for recreation backcountry skiers. This 40-denier ripstop eVent fabric jacket is named in honour of Sherpa Adventure Gear’s ambassador Lakpa Rita Sherpa. He’s an acclaimed mountain guide who has guided hundreds of people to the summit of Everest on a total of 17 ascents. Lakpa Rita Sherpa is the face of Sherpa Adventure Gear, literally, as he is on many of the company’s marketing materials and hang tags for their products.
