Engineered to explore
Some hikes ask more of your gear than your body. The XT Series is built for that.
Knowing what's ahead isn't easy. The weather will shift. The daylight will drop.
The XT Series is built for that decision. Kathmandu's most advanced hiking system is for adventurers who know exactly what they need. Exceptional design, extensive testing, extreme performance, it's engineered to work as hard as you do. It’s built for hikers who've been around long enough to know exactly what they need and why it matters.
Individual by design. Exceptional together.
Every piece of the XT Series is designed with one goal - to keep you moving. Four technically advanced layers, each with a precise role: a breathable base, an adaptive mid, insulated warmth, and full weather protection. Worn together, they form Kathmandu's most complete hiking system. Worn individually, each piece still earns its place.
LayerOne - Coming soon
A breathable base layer, LayerOne sits close to your skin to wick sweat, regulate warmth, and move with you.
LayerTwo
A mid layer between base and shell—soft, breathable, and warm without the bulk.
HeatLock
Warm without the bulk. HeatLock traps heat while staying breathable. Reliable from crisp mornings to cool evenings.
HydroProof
Fully waterproof, windproof, and seam‑sealed for storm protection, with breathable tech to prevent overheating.
Every fabric in the XT Series is chosen for a reason. CORDURA®, Octa®, and ALUULA™ - three of the world's most technically advanced materials, chosen for their ability to perform under pressure, reduce weight, and last the distance.
CORDURA®
Three-layer recycled CORDURA® nylon ripstop delivers durable, waterproof breathability and helps block chilly wind gusts.
Octa®
Lightweight Octa® fibre fleece traps warmth without adding bulk.
ALUULA™
ALUULA™ composite fabric - one of the strongest fabrics in the world; it delivers lightweight durability, UV-resistance, puncture and abrasion resistance without peeling or delaminating.
