Article Summary:

Two years ago, UK-based Berghaus formed a special cross-departmental R&D team called MtnHaus. The group's mission was to focus on creating a few extraordinary products without deadlines, marketing guidelines, or seasonal goals. Basically, MtnHaus was told to throw out the usual rules, think big, and go for it.

One of the first products to come out of the Berghaus brain trust is the Mount Asgard Smock, which weighs a mere 9.7 ounces (276g). This waterproof/breathable pullover has all of the features necessary for mountaineering - tough fabric, unrestricted movement, helmet-friendly hood - and nothing more. In sports where speed is safety, and every gram is important, the Mount Asgard Smock provides maximum protection for minimum weight.
