Materials:

• Shell: Omni-Tech™ Plain Weave 2L 100% polyester. This two-layer fabric offers a robust waterproof and windproof barrier, with a smooth texture and notable durability. The Omni-Tech™ treatment ensures waterproofness and breathability through a microporous membrane that prevents water entry but allows sweat vapor to escape, maintaining optimal climate comfort.
• Lining: 100% polyester mesh. This lightweight mesh lining enhances the overall breathability of the garment, facilitating air circulation and helping to wick moisture away from the body. Additionally, it provides a layer of comfort between the shell and skin or mid-layers, preventing a sticky feeling.
