THE BLACKYAK JAVARI JACKET

The Ultimate Lightweight: The JAVARI Jacket

Meticulously engineered for optimal performance in demanding environments, the JAVARI Jacket focuses on portability and functionality while being as light as an apple and packable as a tennis ball.

Two Variants for Every Style
The JAVARI Jacket comes in two variants, differing only in design:

1. JAVARI GORE-TEX 3L ACTIVE SHELL JACKET
2. JAVARI GORE-TEX 3L ACTIVE SHELL JACKET - SE

Available in two versions: one with reflective logos and one without logos on the arms.

Enhanced Lightweight and Comfortable Design
Using more yarn typically results in more weight, a challenge we addressed by focusing on simplicity. By reducing the number of individual components, we significantly decreased the overall weight. This streamlined design minimizes friction points, providing a softer feel against the skin. The seamless shoulder construction eliminates friction points, enhancing comfort when wearing a backpack.
For the JAVARI Jacket, we selected a 15-Denier fabric, which is even thinner than the fabric used for the THULAGI Jacket. This choice not only contributes to the jacket's lightweight nature but also ensures exceptional breathability. Our commitment to durability is reflected in the use of a 6.6 thin ripstop nylon yarn. While the JAVARI Jacket may not match the THULAGI Jacket in abrasion resistance, its specialized design offers superior breathability and reduced weight, making it perfect for your lightweight and airy adventures.

Your Safety in Focus
Our foremost priority is your safety. To ensure you can be easily located in an emergency, the JAVARI Jacket includes an integrated Recco transmitter in the neck. One of the variants features large reflective logos on the arms, significantly enhancing visibility in low light conditions and thereby increasing your safety. For precise individual adjustments and to minimize fabric abrasion, we placed the elastic hood adjustment at the back. Designed with your safety in mind, the hood fits comfortably under a helmet. The elastic rim around the face provides maximum visibility with every movement. For comprehensive wind protection, the jacket features elastic cuffs at the wrists and an adjustable hem at the front as well as an elasticated hem at the back.



GORE-TEX Fabric Architecture
The GORE-TEX® membrane works because its billions of pores are 20,000 times smaller than a drop of water, ensuring absolute waterproofing. These pores are, however, 700 times larger than water vapor molecules, allowing your sweat to escape, making this high-tech membrane highly breathable. The membrane also withstands wind. The extremely thin membrane (approx. 0.01 mm) is combined with high-performance coatings and outer materials to create GORE-TEX laminates. These laminate constructions are used to turn our products into optimal companions for your missions. In partnership with GORE, every product containing a GORE-TEX® membrane is tested to ensure high standards of protection and comfort.

Half-Zip Special
We didn’t strive for a conventional jacket. Focusing on this special piece, we chose a half-zip. Less zipper means less weight. In terms of functionality and durability, a zipper is always the weakest point of any outdoor jacket, and the possibility of water entering is highest here.



Ultimate Comfort and Flexibility
The JAVARI Jacket offers a supremely relaxed fit, ensuring maximum movement and flexibility during hikes, jumps, flights, and more. Weighing just 171 grams for Men's M and 147 grams for Women's S, this jacket combines lightweight construction with its cool BLACKYAK design, providing both comfort and style.

Versatile Layering Options
Developed to provide perfect protection even in winter emergencies, the JAVARI Jacket is designed to accommodate our second-thickest down jacket, the BURNAG Jacket, underneath. If you plan to use it primarily in winter without thick insulation layers, consider choosing a size smaller than usual.
