Product Description
The jacket is designed for use in the transitional seasons between summer and winter. The material used is known as Shark Skin and somewhat mimics the appearance of shark skin, but the resemblance stops there. This revolutionary material offers a multitude of advantages: wind resistance, waterproofing, elasticity providing increased abrasion resistance, the ability to efficiently retain warmth without overheating, and maintaining low humidity. For additional thermal comfort, the interior features a lining made from soft, synthetic fleece.
This jacket is part of the WindBlocker's category and is recommended for use during the cold season where strong winds and moisture prevail.
The elasticity of the Shark Skin material provides good maneuverability during action, limiting the natural movements of the body very little.
