Inov8 Ultrashell Half Zip Jacket
Designed for runners who wish to race light, the Ultrashell will keep you from feeling weighed down and fully protected from wind, rain and snow.
The Ultrashell Half Zip from Inov8 is the lightest waterproof jacket in this seasons range. Weighing in at only 125 g, the jacket will offer all the desired features without adding the weight which could potentially slow you down. 2.5 Layer fabric and taped seams have been used to construct this jacket which will allow the wearer to remain fully dry as they train. Suitable as part of a mandatory kit when race directions rule a waterproof jacket must be carried. The Ultrashell is also very versatile as it is superbly breathable as well as waterproof, allowing cool air to flow through the garment at the same time as releasing warm air, keeping the wearer cool but dry as they run. The half zip that leads from the middle of the collar down to the chest is very easily adjusted and can allow the wearer to effectively adjust the amount of coverage or ventilation they receive from the front. A zip garage has been added to the collar to prevent chafe and discomfort that could occur around the neck and chin areas. As the fabric chosen for this garment is transparent, the jacket will allow race numbers pinned on underneath layers to remain visible at all times. To save storage space, this jacket can be packed away inside its own hood making it extremely convenient for storing away and easy to carry. The elasticated hem and wrists will also help to block cold air and wet weather from entering this jacket as well as helping to keep heat inside, ideal for cooler training days.
