good value for money. Windproof and comfortable softshell

Excellent softshell with moderate heat input and excellent wind resistance, the water repellency gives that extra safety in light rain. Many comfortable pockets (two internal open nets plus three external zipped pockets) and two side ventilation zips make it practical and versatile in many circumstances and temperatures. Relatively high price but excellent product, the black color and the not excessively "sporty" look make it usable even in an urban environment without looking out of place.

Excellent value for money. Best value waterproofed jacket on the market. Cuffed design on sleeves prevents draughts and sleeves rolling up.

I am happy with this article and I recommend it.

flimsy

It is waterproof and windproof, and the cut is not bad. Although it was designed as a technical product, the armpits became hairy and lumpy in a very short time. Therefore I do not recommend it.

Jacket

The jacket is perfect for mild weather conditions, in a lot of rain it does not work well and the fabric on the sides wears out with the backpack.

Cool Softshell

Well, I've worn it for a while and it's really very comfortable and durable. As there is no winter in Wrocław, it completely replaced the jacket. And at the same time, it is perfect for autumn in the mountains and cycling :)

I dress comfortably

It is wind resistant, it is not 100% cool. It can be worn in the mountains in the months of May and Centyabr. However, it is very comfortable to wear, it is soft and wooly, and it is easy to carry. I bought it against the wind.

What is softshell?

It is a warm protective jacket that protects you from the wind and a short downpour (about 30 minutes) of light rain or snow.The fabric used is an assembly of 3 materials: a breathable and windproof micro-porous membrane sandwiched between the water-repellent outer side and the inner face composed of a comfortable and warm fleece.

Thermal comfort and windproof

The wind makes you feel considerably colder.With an outside temperature of 32°F (0°C) and a 10 mph wind, the perceived temperature is 14°F (-10°C).InchWindproofInch components fight the uncomfortable effects associated with this Inchfreezing effectInch. Extremely effective at reducing heat loss by creating a barrier against the wind

Breathability

The main fabric used throughout the jacket, except at the sides, has a windproof membrane with a breathability of 2814 g/sqm for 24 h (according to the JIS 1099 A standard).

Water repellent property of component (not to be confused with waterproofing)

The water-repellent property of a fabric is its capacity to make water run off its surface without absorbing it. This prevents the fabric from soaking up water and keeps it lightweight and breathable. The fabric is made water-repellent by treating its outer surface, however this property may deteriorate with use.The water-repellent property can be reactivated by putting the jacket in the tumble dryer for 10 minutes on low heat.
