Mondial 2.0
The best-selling Mondial Dry2Dry™ Laminate jacket returns with a host of improvements including CE Level 2 protectors, increased adjustability and more wearer-friendly ease of use across the garment.

Oxford’s laminate textiles fuse the Dry2Dry™ membrane to the outer shell, creating an extremely lightweight, durable, and waterproof garment.

Protection has received a spec bump, in the shape of upgraded CE level 2 protectors in the shoulders and elbows. Formed from a soft, flexible polymer that conforms to the wearer’s individual body shape, these protectors harden upon impact with high shock absorbing properties.

When temperatures rise, the WarmDry™ thermal liner can be removed allowing the ventilation system to channel cool air directly to the body and allowing warm air to exit out of the rear exhaust vent.

Large chest vents are now easily operated and fastened open with one hand, without even needing to look at them. In addition to the water-resistant zippers, clever fabric techniques create rain channels that further prevent rain ingress. Semi-autolock zippers ensure the flap remains closed when not in use.
