Everest record-breaker Kilian reveals his kit list

Written by Fiona

Before departing for Mt Everest in April, Kilian Jornet took a photo of all the gear he had packed up for the adventure. In less than one week in May, Kilian summitted Everest twice at speed and without additional oxygen.

The kit pack is very small in comparison to other Everest adventurers because Kilian likes to move light and fast on mountains and you’ll note it is predominately made by Salomon.

Prototype Salomon Mountaineering Boots: Designed specifically for the Everest expedition, they include lightweight prototype trail running shoes (unseen here) that are placed inside the outer boots once Kilian reached the snow line.

Salomon Prototype Sleeping suit: Prototype 1-piece high-altitude suit engineered and fully developed by Salomon.

Plus:

Salomon S-LAB X Alp Carbon 2 GTX® Shoes

Salomon X-MAX Goggles

Salomon Sagarmatha Glacier Sunglasses

Salomon Soft Flasks

Salomon S/Lab Trail Running Gloves

Salomon Beanies

Salomon X Alp GTX® Pants

Salomon X Alp Mid Hoodie

Salomon X Alp Speed Pant

Salomon S-LAB Socks

Salomon Prototype Mountaineering Poles

Salomon Primo Base Layer Shirt and Pants

Salomon S-LAB X Alp Baffled Down Jacket

Salomon S-LAB Modular Running Shorts

Salomon XA Trail Running Cap
