What is the Windveil Jacket?
It's a lightweight, wind and water-resistant full zip jacket made from superbly breathable Pertex® Quantum Air. It's highly versatile and can be worn as a light outer layer when moving fast in exposed conditions or as part of a technical layering system when the pace slows.
What is it made from?
The jacket is constructed from lightweight 20D recycled Pertex Quantum Air. This is the most breathable variant of Pertex Quantum, which allows a little air to pass through to cool you down when you're working hard. The hot air inside the jacket is replaced with small amounts of cool air, keeping you at a constant, comfortable temperature. This fabric also features a water-repellent acrylic coating and is treated with a fluorocarbon-free DWR (durable water repellent) that encourages light rain to bead off the material instead of soaking in; however, please note this does not make the jacket waterproof.
What are its features?
The Windveil Jacket features a low-bulk stand-up collar to shield the back of your necl from strong winds and cold drafts. A simple YKK® full-length zip closure allows you to easily ventilate should you start to work up a sweat.
Elasticated cuffs with thumb loops help seal out the elements and provide added warmth across the hands during exposed runs. The cuffs can be easily pulled back to access your sports watch or to provide some much-needed ventilation around the wrists should you need to cool down a little.
A small pocket on the back allows you to pack the jacket away whilst not in use, so it takes up minimal space in your backpack or running vest. It also doubles as a handy little pocket for keeping a credit card or energy gels close to hand. The bottom hem is partly elasticated to help stop the jacket from riding up your back when you're moving fast and wearing a pack.
