Waterproof (20K Schmerber)
Resistant (3-layer membrane)
Ultra-breathable (RET<4.5)
Ultra light (168g in size M) and compactable
A gusset in the back compatible with a 12L bag
Using an origami construction, we created a gusset in the back allowing the jacket to be worn directly over a trail bag. This allows you to shelter from bad weather while protecting your equipment.
Exceptional performance, for a new generation of membrane.
The membrane we are offering is the first 3-layer of its generation, marketed in pre-series.
It has a waterproof rating of 20K* Schmerber, a RET of less than 4.5, all this for a 3 layer of only 50g/m2.
It thus opens the way to a new generation of products that are both high-performance and resistant (3 layers).
A visor, headband and collar that really protects the neck
Beyond the reinforced visor which guarantees eye comfort during the race, we have added a headband to the hood to ensure that the hood always follows the direction of the gaze.
The collar goes up to the chin and really protects the neck.
A waterproof zip and pressure fastening system
The jacket closes with a waterproof zip with a snap button on the chest which allows it to be ventilated from below, while keeping it closed at chest level.
A new generation of membrane, co-developed by our French weaver
It was in the confidence of Payen, our material supplier, that the project for this jacket was born.
After having prototyped the lightest layers (inner and outer sides of the jacket) in the world, it appeared possible to compete in lightness with the famous Shakedry, which however does not have an outer layer (more fragile).
A product co-built with a community of enthusiasts
To accessorize this jacket, we mobilized our entire community of ultra-trailers, through collaborative workshops, but also detailed questionnaires.
The product that we have developed is the result of collective reflection which brings together all the functionalities dreamed of by our users.

Conventional in-store distribution generates on average 20% of waste at the end of the season.
Direct pre-ordering is a new mode of consumption that eradicates waste by producing only what is necessary.
But it also allows us to raise the funds necessary to launch production, essential financing for a small brand like us!

Yes ! This jacket is a 3-layer, which means that the membrane is protected between two layers of fabric (the layers) and is therefore not in direct contact with the bag.
This membrane thus has excellent abrasion resistance tests.
However, to help protect belongings from bad weather, it is possible to put the jacket over the bag.
The jacket can accommodate a bag with a capacity of 12L
The BlackShell is the size of a 500mL flask when stored in its interior pocket.
The BlackShell³ weighs 168g in M
We recommend washing the jacket by hand, without using soap (soap reduces the power of the water-repellent treatment).
Machine washing at too high a temperature can cause premature wear of the waterproofing strips.

“It was on these trails that we met... In 2019, we realized that we did not agree with what was written on the labels of our clothes. And it was not possible to find trail clothing that was both technical and eco-responsible.
So we put everything together to create the outfit of our dreams. The one that covers more km on our shoulders than in a boat!”
