What is a softshell jacket?
A softshell jacket is a versatile garment made from soft, woven fabrics. Unlike a hardshell jacket, which is fully waterproof but often less flexible, a softshell focuses on breathability, flexibility, and comfort. Most models are windproof and water-repellent, making them ideal for variable weather and active work environments.
- Breathability: Wicks away moisture and excess heat to keep you comfortable during activity.
- Flexibility: Materials like elastane provide optimal freedom of movement.
- Wind and water resistance: Shields you from light rain and wind.
- Comfort: Soft materials feel pleasant against the skin.
