Lifetime guarantee on hardshell jackets? That’s the promise made by the manufacturer Mountain Equipment. We wanted to find out exactly what a lifetime jacket guarantee means and which products are covered by the repair and quality promise.
Skiing. Climbing. Hiking. Even a relaxed stroll through town. A hardshell jacket can do pretty much anything you can think about. Ideally, of course, it should last as long as possible. After all, you don’t want to replace such an adventure companion after just one season. It’s a bit like a rope team, which should last as long as possible. Ideally for a lifetime. This is also important to Mountain Equipment. That’s why the manufacturer now promises a (jacket) lifetime guarantee on new hardshell products purchased during the promotion period.

Which products benefit from a lifetime guarantee?
The lifetime guarantee applies to selected hardshell jackets and trousers that are equipped with the latest materials – such as the new GORE-TEX ePE technology. The ePE material dispenses with the use of environmentally harmful PFAS, further contributing to sustainability. GORE-TEX ePE products are also characterised by waterproofness, windproofness and breathability, making them perfect for all outdoor activities.
The offer is valid when buying one of the following hardshell products:
- Drilite + Odyssey Jacket (m/f)
- Odyssey Pant (m/f)
- Tacul Jacket (m/f)
- Gore-Tex Makalu Jacket (m/f)
- Makalu Pant (m/f)
- Saltoro Jacket (m/f)
If you buy one of these products and register it on the Mountain Equipment website, you are guaranteed a free repair service – for the entire life of the jacket.
What does a (jacket) lifetime guarantee mean?
A lifetime guarantee is far more than just a sales promise – it is a clear statement of quality and sustainability. Mountain Equipment products are characterised by their durability and high quality. However, should something be damaged, the items can be professionally repaired in the company’s own workshop. Original spare parts and materials are often used, and every effort is made to restore the original condition and maintain the functionality of the equipment with great craftsmanship.
