Jack Wolfskin Essential Peak Jacket

It might look like a casual hoody, but it's much more than that. The Essential Peak Jacket by Jack Wolfskin is a robust, full-spec softshell jacket designed for active outdoor use in winter. The jacket is very comfortable to wear, whether you're running in the woods or hiking in the mountains.

The Flex Shield fabric stretches as you move and copes exceptionally well with the wind and rain. Flex Shield Oxford is Jack Wolfskin's signature robust and stretchy softshell fabric designed with comfort in mind. Furthermore, the water-resistant coating is 100% PFC-free, so you can wear the Essential Peak Jacket with a clear conscience, knowing that you're supporting sustainable, environmentally friendly production methods. As well as this, the Flex Shield fabric composition ensures that it remains robust and highly breathable, the fabrication allows fresh air to flow throughout the garment whilst, at the same time allowing stale, humid air to escape; this creates a perfect microclimate for your skin to thrive in. While working hard to repel wind and rain, the jacket remains ultra-flexible, so even during strenuous activity, there's no loss in wear comfort.

The hood features an adjustable volume and field of vision to ensure a close and comfortable fit that won't affect your vision. The full zip is perfect for any outdoor adventures; the zips can be worn closed to seal in dissipating heat or when temperatures rise it can be worn open to release intolerable heat build-up. The split kangaroo pockets can be used to store essential items or they can warm your hands when the temperature drops. The Essential Peak Jacket isn't doesn't just feel good to wear, it's good for the planet too. The Bluesign product logo certifies safe textiles, environmentally friendly production and the careful use of resources. 100% of the fabrics used and at least 75% of the small parts of the jacket are certified. In this way, sustainable production is guaranteed. At no time are substances harmful to the environment, the careful handling of resources is guaranteed and occupational safety is maintained without exception. In order to ensure that the requirements are met, an extensive test programme has been defined, which is carried out by independent and accredited laboratories in Germany.
