Gore C5 GORE-TEX Shakedry 1985 Insulated Jacket
Stay protected no matter what the weather thanks to the GORE-TEX fabric offering breathable and durable protection from the elements. Designed for high aerobic sports, the jacket provides manageable warmth, ensuring that you feel comfortable and don't overheat.
With the use of Gore's revolutionary Shakedry technology, this has brought an increased protection and breathability to users of the jacket. When exposed to moisture from rain or splashes off wet roads, water simply beads up on the jacket and rolls off it quickly and efficiently. No matter how much liquid it is exposed to, the quick removal of it ensures that it will never wet out. This consistent performance means that it can perform highly in any weather conditions over a long course of time. In addition to being waterproof, the jacket also resists wind from entering, which again will ensure that your core body temperature is protected.
Within the jacket there is Polartec Alpha, the latest evolution of synthetic insulation. This offers users a combination of lightweight warmth and true breathability in a puffy style garment. More durable and stable than other synthetic insulation products, Polartec has more open-construction woven face and back fabrics can be selected to create an air permeable package. As well as this, the small amount of airflow that is allowed to enter and exit the jacket rapidly draws moisture away from the body, leaving the body feeling warm and comfortable.
At the top, there is an adjustable collar with a velcro strap. This will ensure that you will always be able to find a perfect and comfortable fit, as well as protection from the cold. Two-way zips also mean that adjusting the amount of air that can enter is easy to control. As well as this, there are tags on the zips, meaning adjustments can be made with ease and quickly. The sleeves are elasticated, which will keep the cold and water out, as well as making the fit feel tailored. The hem bordering is also elasticated, which will make movement a lot less restrictive, opening up a lot more ranges of movement.
Items can be stored with security and safety, as there is a rear storage pocket that has a zip. Reflective logos and trims on the sleeves mean that you will be a lot more visible in limited light. Perfect to store in a backpack using up little space, the jacket is the essential item to take with you on a long day out, as it will make sure that the weather doesn't ruin your day.
