Tilak Ketil Jacket 23

Tilak is a Czech legend in outdoor clothing, proving that even a small country can produce a brand with global quality. It was founded in the 1980s as a project of Roman Kamler, an enthusiast who started out sewing sleeping bags and gradually worked his way up to producing high-end technical clothing for extreme conditions. Today, Tilak is one of the few European manufacturers who still maintain local production in the Czech Republic, which means maximum control over quality and precise workmanship.

Premium materials are a matter of course. Gore-Tex guarantees waterproofness, windproofness and breathability in one. Softshell, merino wool and ultralight synthetic insulation keep you warm, whether you're on a glacier or climbing a windy mountain pass. The design is functional, minimalist and perfectly tailored to your movement. No frills, just pure practicality.

The brand is worn by professional mountaineers, soldiers and adventurers who need to steadily deliver maximum performance. Their products are worn by Radek Jaroš, a top Czech climber who has climbed all the world's eight-thousanders in Tilak clothing. Tilak is also a popular choice for expedition teams, mountain leaders and elite emergency services, proving that you can rely on it even in the harshest conditions.

This outdoor apparel has staying power and definitely wasn't made just for flexing on Instagram. No compromises are made here and no half-assed solutions are sought. You get premium quality that you'll appreciate every step of the way. You can rely on the Tilak equally well on a Himalayan expedition or a light autumn trek.
