Women's waterproof jacket Salewa Puez Aqua 4 PTX 2.5L - etruscan red/multi, size M

The Salewa Puez Aqua 4 PTX 2.5L women's waterproof jacket in etruscan red/multi, size M, is a lightweight, packable shell designed for outdoor activities where reliable weather protection and low weight are required. Constructed with a 2.5-layer PTX membrane, the jacket blocks rain and wind while maintaining breathability. The model includes a hood, a full-length front zipper and taped seams to secure against moisture infiltration, making it suitable for hiking and alpine approaches.

Advantages

The 2.5-layer PTX membrane offers a balance of waterproofing and breathability while keeping the garment thin and easy to compress for storage. Taped seams and a full-length zipper enhance water protection along critical points. The integrated hood provides coverage without adding excessive bulk, and the lightweight construction makes the jacket convenient to carry in a daypack or travel bag. Design details focus on functional performance for movement and variable weather.

Suitable for

• Day hikes and multi-day trekking in variable weather

• Travel and commuting when compact, weatherproof outerwear is needed
• Layering over insulating mid-layers during active outdoor use

How to use

Wear the shell over base and mid layers to create a weatherproof outer layer. Use the full-length zipper to regulate ventilation during activity; partially unzip when warm and close fully in heavy rain. Adjust the hood to fit snugly around the head to keep rain and wind out, ensuring the opening does not obstruct vision. After use in wet conditions, hang the jacket to dry inside out and ensure taped seams remain intact. Store the jacket folded or rolled in a dry place when not in use.

Usage recommendations

For best performance, pair the jacket with breathable base layers and a lightweight insulating mid-layer. Reapply a suitable DWR (durable water repellent) treatment as needed to maintain water beading on the outer fabric, and follow care instructions on the garment label to preserve membrane function and taped seams.
