Paramo Womens Alta III Waterproof Jacket Elderberry/Foxglove

Season:AW24

Brand:Paramo

Code:NAU40CE

The Alta III uses Nikwax® Analogy® Waterproof fabric for superior weather protection and sweat management, with ventilation for good temperature control. Reinforced panels help prevent water ingress when pack carrying.

When walking on tough terrain in cold and wet conditions, you need durable, reliable clothing that will keep you dry and warm. If you are working hard, your jacket also needs quick options to cool you down while on the move.

Functional design, combined with Nikwax Analogy Waterproof fabric, provides optimum comfort, excellent weather protection, warmth and cooling in one efficient jacket.

  • The Alta III has excellent ventilation, a fully adjustable hood and practical pocketing.
  • Temperature regulation is provided by upper arm vents (that can also stay open in the rain without water ingress), a two-way locking front YKK zip with internal storm flap, and sleeves that are designed to be pushed up.
  • Good visibility and weather protection is assured by the fully adjustable wire peaked hood, which is designed to maintain vison in all conditions and roll into the jacket collar when not in use.
  • Secure external and internal storage allows for safe stowing of map and navigation tools across four well-placed pockets.

Nikwax Analogy Waterproof fabric is more than just breathable, it is directional.

Nikwax Analogy Waterproof Fabric
This means it is capable of moving liquid water away from your body and not just water vapour.

It is essential to avoid a build-up of water in your clothing system when you are working hard, as too much retained moisture will lead to your body rapidly chilling when you stop and rest.

In conventional clothing systems, approximately 20% of sweat production is dealt with effectively, leaving the remaining 80% trapped inside.

Nikwax Analogy garments are unique, in that they pump out this 80% of liquid water and allow it to drain away; you are left feeling dry and comfortable.


Product Ethics

  • PFC*-free water repellent finish (*per and polyfluorinated compounds)
  • Produced in Colombia by MIQUELINA, a member of the World Fair Trade Organization. Guaranteed Fair Trade.
  • Fully recyclable through Páramo.

  • Glove-friendly zips allow for easy, single-handed operation.

If you are out on Britains hills and trails with any regularity you will have seen groups of walkers proudly sporting their Paramo Nikwax Analogy jackets, they are also a favourite of Mountain Rescue Teams and Mountain Leaders.


What it does: The Nikwax Analogy Pump Liner mimics the action of animal fur – pushing liquid water outwards to protect you from rain, condensation and perspiration, while protecting your insulation. This is combined with a Directional microfibre outer to deflect wind and rain.

All Paramo's waterproof fabrics and prototype garments are rigorously field-tested in a range of environments to ensure that they deliver consistent, ongoing performance in exacting conditions during ‘real’ activities.

In addition, all of Paramo's prototype garments are tested independently at Leeds University Textile Department Rain Room. The Nikwax Analogy® Waterproof badge on a garment denotes that that garment has shown no water ingress during this stringent testing procedure, independently monitored and reported.

The Rain Room at Leeds University Textile Department (UK) was specially built and donated by Nikwax to enable the assessment of outdoor fabrics and garment designs.

Key benefits:

  • Two layer construction traps still air giving superior insulation to keep you warm.
  • Outer layer provides Directional water-repellency while the Pump Liner actively pushes liquid moisture away from the body keeping you dry from precipitation, perspiration and condensation.
  • Continues to work just as effectively even in high humidity or very cold conditions.
  • Water-repellency can be easily renewed for the lifetime of the garment with Nikwax Aftercare.
  • The fabric is soft, strong, silent and durable.

How it works:

  1. Perspiration on skin surface
  2. Páramo base layer is shown here worn next to the skin, wicking water away to keep you dry.
  3. Nikwax Analogy Pump Liner pumps water away from the body and the base layer.
  4. Air is trapped between Pump Liner and outer layer to give insulation.
  5. Wind and rain is deflected by the windproof and water repellent outer.

Nikwax Analogy comes in two weights to suit different requirements:

Nikwax Analogy®: very durable weather protection.
Nikwax Analogy® Light: same weather protection at a lighter fabric weight.
