It also comes with several pockets, two of which are located on the sides, one on the chest, one on the arm and two are placed inside. One of the inner pockets comes with a duct for earphones, in case you prefer listening to music while exercising or spending time outdoors.

Material

The materials of this jacket are layered in two parts, the outer part, made of 96% Polyester and 4% Spandex, and the inner part, made of a fleece lining of 100% Polyester, along with a mesh lining for higher breathability.

It is water repellent, which is provided by the Power Dry 4000, that also dries considerably quickly, a very important thing when it comes to sports jackets.

The Polyester on the outer part is used to ensure the water-repellency as well as the durability of the jacket. The spandex allows for some elasticity, so it will fit properly and feel comfortable. This also ensures maximum mobility, which is one of the most specific features of softshells.

As for the fleece lining, it offers not only warmth, but high breathability as well, a very essential feature when being physically active.

The zippers are also rain resistant and covered underneath, to offer better protection and insulation.

Color Selection

The colors available for this jacket are quite “out there”. You can’t help but notice them. They are vibrant and combined beautifully.
